Search Engine Optimization Specialist Amber Field Media Dayton, OH Job Details Full-time $78,000 - $82,000 a year 3 hours ago Benefits Health insurance Dental insurance 401(k) Paid time off Parental leave Employee assistance program Vision insurance Flexible schedule Qualifications Customer communication Writing skills Client inquiry handling Content writing SEO error detection and correction Attention to detail Google Search Console Technical troubleshooting support Full Job Description About the Role We are hiring an SEO Specialist to improve client search rankings, strengthen local visibility, and help websites attract relevant organic traffic. You'll review website performance, identify technical and content issues, manage local search listings, and use campaign data to guide ongoing improvements. This role is suited to someone with at least two years of SEO experience who can work methodically, write clear recommendations, and understand that meaningful search improvements take time. You'll be expected to monitor campaigns consistently, respond promptly when problems arise, and report results accurately without making promises the data cannot support. What You'll Be Responsible For Audit client websites to identify technical SEO issues, content gaps, indexing problems, and opportunities for improvement. Develop practical optimisation plans based on website audits, keyword research, and client objectives. Manage local business listings, check profile accuracy, and monitor customer reviews. Research keywords and search intent to identify opportunities for new pages and existing content improvements. Prepare clear content briefs outlining page objectives, target keywords, search intent, and recommended content structure. Monitor keyword rankings, organic traffic, local visibility, and other relevant SEO performance indicators. Use Google Search Console and appropriate SEO tools to investigate changes in performance and identify potential issues. Review page titles, meta descriptions, internal links, headings, and other on-page SEO elements. Track campaign progress and prepare reports explaining performance changes, completed work, and recommended next steps. Investigate ranking declines, traffic changes, indexing issues, and other problems that may affect campaign performance. Keep campaign records, audit findings, and performance data accurate and organised. Respond promptly to client and team enquiries, particularly when a campaign requires investigation or corrective action. Communicate progress, concerns, and realistic expectations clearly to the relevant stakeholders. What You'll Bring At least 2 years of professional experience in SEO. Practical knowledge of technical SEO, on-page optimisation, and local SEO. Familiarity with Google Search Console and relevant SEO research, auditing, and tracking tools. Understanding of keyword research, search intent, website indexing, and organic search performance. Good writing skills and the ability to prepare clear content briefs and optimisation recommendations. Ability to interpret ranking and traffic data and explain what the figures do—and do not—demonstrate. Strong attention to detail when auditing websites, checking business listings, and reviewing performance reports. A methodical approach to investigating technical issues and identifying opportunities for improvement. Good organisational skills and the ability to manage several tasks or campaigns at once. Clear communication skills and the ability to provide timely, accurate updates. Patience and consistency when managing campaigns where results develop over time. What to Expect in the Role You'll be expected to track SEO activity carefully, check your findings before reporting them, and communicate honestly about campaign performance. When rankings or traffic change unexpectedly, you should investigate the possible causes and explain what is known, what remains uncertain, and what action is recommended. SEO requires ongoing attention rather than one-time fixes. We value consistent optimisation, realistic expectations, and prompt communication when a technical issue or campaign concern needs attention.
