- Leverage a strong understanding of Google Analytics
- Be a versatile team player who can tackle various projects and collaborate with all teams.
- Be a constant student of SEO who is applying his or her learnings to their work and sharing knowledge with internal and client-facing teams.

Qualifications:

- 3-5 years or more of experience contributing to or managing SEO programs, preferably in an agency setting
- Evidence of success with previous SEO campaigns for medium to large brands, ideally including e-commerce companies
- Strong understanding of cross-channel marketing principles
- Compelling written and verbal communication skills, a positive attitude and the ability to thrive in a collaborative and fast-paced environment
- Advanced understanding of technical SEO concepts (crawling, indexing, rendering, AMP, site migrations, page speed optimization, core web vitals and more)
- Strong project management and organization skills, ability to prioritize and manage multiple projects
- Advanced understanding and experienced user of Google Analytics and Google Search Console - Tag Manager and/or Publisher Center is also a plus
- Understand recent developments in SEO such as Core Web Vitals, Google Discover, E-A-T, new Rich Results and more
- Intermediate to advanced knowledge of HTML, Javascript and CSS as they impact search performance
- Strong knowledge and experience using standard and enterprise search tools and platforms ( SEMRush, Sistrix, DeepCrawl, Screaming Frog, SEMRush, GTMetrix, etc.)
- The ability to meet scheduled and proposed deadlines.
- Comfort with and mastery of (or ability to quickly learn) spreadsheet formats (Google Sheets, Excel).
