Are you an SEO Executive looking to build your experience across content, technical SEO and search strategy? Would you like to join a successful agency that offers genuine flexibility and trusts its team to manage their work whilst offering heaps of scope for development and progression?
We’ve been retained by an established digital marketing agency in Essex to help them recruit a SEO Executive to join its close-knit team. Working with both B2B and B2C clients, the agency delivers SEO, ecommerce and content campaigns across sectors including healthcare, automotive, logistics, education, financial services, property and technology.
The Company - SEO Executive
This is a friendly, collaborative agency with a strong track record and a varied client base. The team works closely together, sharing ideas and focusing on activity that delivers meaningful, sustainable results. They also take a refreshingly grown-up approach to working life. The role offers two days a week from home alongside flexibility around working hours when needed. People are trusted to manage their schedules and get their work done without unnecessary formality.
The Role – SEO Executive
This is a varied SEO role covering content, optimisation, reporting and technical work. You’ll create and improve content for clients, help develop keyword strategies and use performance data to understand what is working and where improvements can be made.
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.
There is also a technical side to the position. You’ll carry out audits, identify issues that could be affecting organic performance and work with developers to put fixes in place.
The agency is already considering how search is changing as a result of AI. You’ll therefore have the opportunity to build your knowledge of AI search optimisation alongside more traditional SEO techniques.
Key Responsibilities – SEO Executive
- Writing and optimising blog posts, landing pages, press releases, media pitches, email campaigns and advertising copy
- Making sure content reflects search intent and supports wider conversion objectives
- Refreshing existing content to improve rankings and performance
- Editing content for grammar, style and consistency
- Uploading content through WordPress, Shopify and other content management systems
- Using Semrush, GA4, Screaming Frog and Google Search Console to inform SEO activity
- Monitoring conversions, clicks and user journeys to understand content performance
- Supporting keyword research and targeting strategies
- Running technical audits to identify crawl errors, broken links and redirect chains
- Working with developers on site architecture, structured data and technical fixes
- Helping clients build topical authority across traditional and AI-led search
- Supporting the agency’s own marketing activity when required

About You – SEO Executive
You’ll already have some practical SEO experience, either within an agency or an in-house marketing team. You should understand the principles of keyword research and content optimisation alongside the technical basics that can affect how a website performs in search.
You’ll also be a capable writer with a good eye for detail and the confidence to edit and improve existing content. Experience with tools such as Semrush, GA4, Screaming Frog and Google Search Console would be useful as would experience using WordPress or Shopify.
You don’t need to know everything about AI search already, but you should be interested in how search is developing and keen to learn more.
Above all, you’ll be someone who takes responsibility for their work, enjoys being part of a small team and appreciates being trusted to manage their time properly.
