SEO & AEO Specialist

Remote, Philippines | Contract, via Kairos Recruitment

Kairos Recruitment is a Melbourne-based recruitment partner for Australian startups, and sits alongside a handful of other properties under the same umbrella. We’re looking for an SEO/AEO specialist to sort the basics across four of our websites, then keep improving and building on all four – for traditional search and for AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews.

The lay of the land

• Kairos Recruitment (kairosrecruitment.com.au) – founder-native recruitment agency for Australian startups and scaleups, built on Webflow
• Aussie Fractionals (aussiefractionals.com) – a board where fractional executives list themselves for Australian founders to find, built on Lovable
• PeopleStack – a membership platform for startup people functions, built on Lovable
• Life After Launch (lifeafterlaunchpod.com) – a weekly podcast interviewing founders, with a blog article alongside each episode; this is the lowest priority of the four to start with

What do we want from you?

• Run a full technical SEO audit on each site and fix what’s broken – metadata, sitemaps, site speed, broken links, duplicate content
• Build the AEO/GEO foundations on each site – structured data and schema, FAQ markup, content formatted so AI answer engines can find and cite it
• Improve on-page content – headings, internal linking, keyword targeting – without a copywriter brief; you’re making the call on what needs to change
• Keep a simple record of what you changed and why on each site, in plain language we can follow
• Return roughly every two months per site to re-audit, refresh and build on what’s there, rather than treating it as a one-off job
• Flag anything bigger than an SEO fix – a site structure issue, a content gap – rather than working around it silently

We want someone to sort the technical SEO, schema and AEO/GEO foundations across all four sites, then keep returning to improve and build on each of them on an ongoing basis.

How To Apply

Rather than applying against a fixed scope, send us a short proposal covering:

• How you’d approach the first pass across all four sites, and what order you’d tackle them in
• What an ongoing cadence would look like in your hands – we’re thinking a return visit roughly every two months per site to audit, refresh and build on it, though we’re open to your view – including roughly how many hours you’d expect it to take
• Your rate

We’ll review proposals and come back to candidates who look like a good fit.
