The role
We're looking for a talented SEO Executive who thrives on delivering results and loves the challenge of improving organic search performance. If you're someone who gets excited by data insights, enjoys building genuine client relationships, and takes real pride in creating strategies that make a tangible difference, we want to hear from you.
In this role, you'll be working with independent car dealers across the UK, helping them transform their digital presence and grow their businesses. Your expertise in SEO will directly contribute to dealers being found by more of the right customers, ranking above their local competitors, and maximising their profitability. It's rewarding work with real-world impact - and we have ambitious plans for growth that we'd love you to be part of.
A typical week will look like:
You'll be at the heart of delivering exceptional client work across organic search, from technical SEO through to on-page and off-page strategy. This is a role where your strategic thinking directly impacts client success - you'll build strong relationships by understanding their unique needs, working hard to retain clients, and creating data-driven strategies that deliver real, measurable results. For some of our higher-packaged clients, this may also involve yearly site visits, giving you the chance to strengthen relationships face-to-face and get a first-hand view of their business.
Every day, you'll carry out keyword research, on-page optimisation and technical SEO audits - managing site health, crawlability and indexation across a varied client portfolio. You'll develop content and link-building strategies, work with local SEO and Google Business Profile optimisation, and use tools such as Google Search Console, Ahrefs or SEMrush to track rankings, identify opportunities and diagnose issues. You'll support keyword and content strategies aligned to key sales priorities, and dive deep into performance data, turning it into clear insights and recommendations that keep clients ahead of the curve.
You'll manage client expectations and KPIs with a commercial mindset, ensuring every recommendation drives value. Working alongside a junior executive, you'll share your expertise and help develop their skills whilst maintaining excellent client communication. You'll also collaborate with the wider business - working with marketing and web colleagues to resolve technical issues and improve site performance, and lending your SEO expertise to customer success and sales teams to help them identify the best-fit solutions for dealers.
You'll stay up to date with algorithm updates, industry trends and best practices in SEO along the way. While the role focuses primarily on client delivery, you'll occasionally support onboarding activities, ensuring new clients get off to a flying start.
