About Us
Elder is a dynamic scale-up revolutionising the care industry by connecting older adults to self-employed carers through an innovative technology-driven introductory model. We are committed to using data-driven insights to continuously improve outcomes for our customers and carers.
About The Role
We’re looking for a Senior SEO Executive to support our SEO Manager in growing elder.org’s organic performance across Google search and emerging discovery platforms. This role is ideal for someone with a strong grasp of SEO fundamentals who’s ready to apply them at scale in a fast-growing, purpose-led business.
You’ll work closely with the SEO Manager to help ensure elder.org is discoverable not just on Google, but across platforms where people increasingly search for information, including AI-powered search experiences like Google AI Overviews, AI Mode and ChatGPT.
What you’ll be responsible for
Core SEO Support
You’ll support day-to-day SEO activity, including:
- On-page optimisation (e.g. meta titles and descriptions, heading structures, internal linking, and image optimisation)
- Updating and improving existing content to increase visibility, rankings and engagement
- Carrying out keyword research for new and existing pages, informed by user intent and search behaviour.
- Writing, editing and optimising high-quality SEO content in English, including landing pages and blog articles, based on keyword research, content gaps and user needs.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Search beyond Google
You’ll help ensure elder.org is discoverable wherever people look for answers, including:
- Supporting content optimisation to improve how it is surfaced in modern search experiences (e.g. AI Overviews, AI Mode, large language models)
- Learning how emerging discovery platforms impact SEO and applying relevant best practices
- Monitoring changes in user behaviour and supporting the identification of new SEO opportunities
Technical SEO Fundamentals
You won’t be expected to lead complex technical projects independently, but you should be confident in understanding issues, explaining them clearly, and supporting implementation.
You’ll support the implementation of technical SEO improvements, such as:
- Identifying duplicate content, redirect issues or broken internal links using tools like Google Search Console and Screaming Frog
- Working with the SEO Manager and engineers to help prioritise and validate fixes.
Cross-channel Collaboration
This role goes beyond traditional website SEO. You’ll collaborate closely with other teams to maximise organic performance:
- Social: Work with the Social Media Manager to inform content topics and optimise discoverability (e.g. titles, captions, keywords) on our social media
- CRO: Work with the CRO Lead to support improvements to conversion rates on key landing pages, using SEO insights to inform testing and optimisation
- Product & Engineering: Collaborate on site improvements and new features, supporting the implementation of SEO best practices
