• Product Development: You will support developing our SEO offering. This means staying ahead of industry shifts, like AI overviews and changing search behaviors, and ensuring our methodologies and tools remain market leading.

• Team & people management: You will lead a team of 4 specialists and senior specialists. Your focus will be on high-level coaching, career development, resource allocation, and maintaining a motivating and collaborative team culture.
