We're looking for an SEO/GEO Specialist to take ownership of organic search performance for a large international eCommerce storefront.

This role is focused on driving high-quality organic traffic and revenue through technical SEO, on-page optimisation, and emerging AI/Generative Search (GEO) techniques. You'll work closely with Product, Marketing and Development teams to improve how our products and categories perform in both traditional search engines and AI-powered search experiences.

This is a hands-on role in a small, collaborative team where you'll have real ownership and visibility of your work.

• Optimising product and category pages (titles, meta data, headings, internal links, schema)
• Using GA4 and Google Search Console to identify opportunities and measure impact
• Working with Product and Development teams to feed SEO requirements into the backlog
• Partnering with Marketing on content and link-building initiatives
• Producing clear monthly SEO performance reports and recommendations
• Supporting Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) by structuring content for AI-driven search results (Google AI Overviews, conversational search, Q&A formats)

What we're looking for

• 3-5 years' experience in SEO, ideally within eCommerce or large websites
• Strong understanding of technical SEO and on-page optimisation
• Confident using GA4 and Google Search Console to drive decisions
• Experience with structured data/schema, internal linking and index management
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with product, marketing and developers
• A hands-on, proactive approach with clear communication skills

Nice to have (but not essential):

• Experience with BrightEdge or similar SEO tools
• Exposure to Generative/AI search optimisation
• Google Ads or GAIQ certification
