What is an SEO specialist?

Our job is to make sure that our clients appear at the top of the search results page – whether people are Googling for a new laptop from Officeworks, running shoes from New Balance, or a new fashion ensemble from Meshki. We’re not talking about the advertisements that we all skim over when searching. We’re talking about the ‘organic’ listings underneath. Achieving this requires a plethora of detailed work mapping out website architecture, understanding user experience, digital content strategies, and having a very keen eye for detail.

 

You Are:

  • An experienced SEO professional with 1.5 – 2+ years of experience.
  • A creative thinker who likes to think outside of the box.
  • Always looking for personal and professional progression.
  • Someone that enjoys meeting new people and building relationships.
  • An enthusiastic team player.
  • Fascinated by the world of digital marketing.
  • Looking to be a part of a high-growth agency on the bleeding edge of innovation.
  • Tenacious and resilient; able to think on your feet when thrown in the deep end.
  • Have strong and clear communication skills which you will use via emails, phone calls and
    during internal & external meetings.

 

What’s in it for you?

  • We have clear career progression pathways, starting as a SEO Specialist with the opportunity to progress to a Senior SEO Specialist or SEO Team Leader.
  • Modern working environment – We don’t work in a stuffy office full of beige cubicles. We’re currently located in a beautifully refurbished warehouse in Prahran.
  • Healthy Office Lifestyle
  • Daily healthy breakfast supplied.
  • Mental health programs available with 4x free sessions.
  • Monthly physiotherapy sessions.
  • Team events – We have quarterly team lunches & events as well as company events throughout the year! Some past events include cork and canvas, archery attack, axe-throwing, escape rooms, office Olympics, pizza nights, and pottery.
  • Bonuses – Once at an SEO Specialist level, there is potential for bonuses through projects and KPIs!
  • Pet-friendly office – We have Basil, our ‘Doggo In Charge’, but you can bring your pets to the office as well. If they love other people and scratches behind the ear, they’re welcome at StudioHawk.
