The best SEO roles let you keep your hands on the craft and own the client relationship — you don't have to trade one for the other to grow. This is one of those.

Our client is a leading Australian full-service digital agency — part of a global network, with a long track record of award-winning work and a reputation built on search. They're investing in it again: new leadership, growing teams, and a real rethink of what discoverability means as search shifts toward AI, video, and beyond the ten blue links. It's a genuinely good moment to join.

As SEO Manager, you'll lead the SEO approach for your own patch of clients — building, amending and pivoting strategy while staying close to the work itself. You'll be in client conversations day to day, shaping content and technical SEO programs, and contributing to the strategies and deliverables that drive their traffic and share of voice. You'll sit within a strong, collaborative team and help raise the standard of work across the practice.

What You'll Own

  • Lead SEO strategy and execution for your own client patch
  • Build, amend and pivot SEO tactics across technical, content and linking
  • Own day-to-day client relationships and consistently deliver value
  • Shape content and discoverability programs that grow share of voice
  • Collaborate across the SEO team to lift the standard of work
  • Help explore where SEO is heading — GEO, video, and AI-era discoverability

What Good Looks Like

  • You've worked in an SEO role, ideally agency-side, and love the craft
  • You know technical SEO, content, linking and eCommerce, and how they connect to other channels
  • You're confident across Google Search Console, GA4, and Semrush
  • You can explain complex SEO clearly to clients at any level of knowledge
  • You stay close to where search is going as AI reshapes discoverability
