Description

The SEO Specialist is the client’s senior level position. They are seeking an experienced SEO Specialist, someone with the wits and energy to tackle enterprise level SEO for Fortune 1000 clients.
You will be challenged to create and implement innovative, high impact SEO strategies that include everything from detailed technical optimization through high-end content optimization and broader earned media communications strategies. This is a hands-on opportunity.
The day you start is the day you will be connected with our clients’ teams. All of their work is results driven. A fundamental understanding of analytics is a must. You must be a self-starter, fast learner, a humble participant and a vigorous advocate for what is right in the SEO world.
Qualifications
BA in Advertising, Marketing, Communications, Media Sciences, Journalism, Computer Science, Business or any of the emerging Digital Marketing degrees. It doesn’t matter so much where you come from as to where you are going. An advanced degree is certainly a plus.
3-5+ years of clearly visible, expert level natural search / SEO experience either agency or client side. Active, hands-on optimization experience is required and we will ask you to submit a portfolio of sites you have optimized.
Mastery of the fundamentals. Page titles, Meta tags, headers, URL structure, link anchor text – all of these basics you should be able to do in your sleep. This is not the main focus but you will likely need to explain them to others.
Paid search management experience is a bonus but you will need to have the core understanding of how SEO and SEM play nice together.
Social media strategic awareness is a must since every day it seems that Google layers in another way social is influencing search results. Fluency in all basic office programs (PPT, XLS, DOC) is required and they are a Mac shop so KEY and other presentation platforms are crucial but not a deal breaker.
You must be able to write clearly and quickly, present your ideas in an organized and coherent manner and be willing to stand up to the challenges of client-side marketing teams, IT groups, brand managers, corporate communications and the myriad agencies that are circling around at our Global 2000 clients.
