About Aperitif Agency

Aperitif is a boutique performance marketing agency specialising in SEO, Google Ads, Meta Ads, and content strategy. We are the current holders of Best Start-Up Agency in APAC for 2025 and Silver for Best Small SEO Agency.

Our motto: Growth Marketing by Good Humans reflects our commitment to delivering exceptional results without losing the human touch. We pride ourselves on quality over quantity, a hands-on approach, and building long-term partnerships with clients who value precision, transparency, and genuine expertise.

As a remote-first agency, we prioritise work-life balance and foster a collaborative, supportive culture. We're passionate about what we do and proud to be recognised in publications including AdNews, Campaign Brief, and Business Insider.

Role Overview

We're seeking a hands-on Technical SEO Specialist to execute high-quality technical SEO work across client websites. You'll be directly inside websites — WordPress, Shopify, and Webflow — making changes, resolving technical issues, and optimising for both traditional search engines (Google, Bing) and emerging LLM-driven platforms (ChatGPT, Claude, Grok).

Working closely with our SEO Director, strategists, copywriters, and link builders, you'll play a key role in delivering the kind of results that win awards — and keep clients for the long term.

Key Responsibilities
  • Technical Audits & Fixes: Conduct comprehensive SEO audits and implement changes, including metadata optimisation, internal linking, schema markup, redirects, canonicalisation, sitemap updates, and crawl/indexation improvements.
  • On-Site Optimisation: Improve site speed, Core Web Vitals, and mobile usability across WordPress, Shopify, and Webflow.
  • Keyword & Intent Research: Identify high-value opportunities to drive targeted, qualified traffic.
  • Competitor & Gap Analysis: Benchmark performance and uncover ranking opportunities.
  • Structured Data: Implement and validate schema to improve SERP visibility.
  • Collaboration: Work with client developers to resolve advanced technical challenges.
  • Monitoring & Reporting: Track progress and impact using tools such as Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, and GA4.
  • Stay Ahead: Keep up with Google algorithm updates and evolving SEO/LLM optimisation trends.
Required Skills & Experience
  • Minimum 3 years of hands-on technical SEO implementation, ideally in an agency setting.
  • Proven ability to implement fixes directly within WordPress, Shopify, and Webflow.
  • Strong understanding of crawl behaviour, site structure, domains, subfolders, and indexation principles.
  • Proficiency in leading SEO tools (Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, GA4, GSC).
  • Experience with Core Web Vitals and page speed optimisation.
  • Ability to implement and test structured data/schema markup.
  • High attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and a results-driven mindset.
  • Strong written skills for briefing and refining content in line with SEO goals.
  • Self-starter with curiosity, initiative, and a "can-do" attitude.
Why Join Us
  • Career plan implemented within your first month — with mentoring from industry-leading technical SEO experts.
  • Remote-first hybrid position (Australian applicants only).
  • Work with an award-winning team that values quality, craftsmanship, and people.
