SEO Leader | Vision-Driven Digital Agency | $90,000 + Super

We're partnering with a fast-growing digital agency based on the Gold Coast to find a data-driven, strategy-led SEO/SEM Specialist to lead performance marketing for respected brands across Australia and international markets.

While the broader team drives UX, development, and design, you'll be the go-to expert for all things organic and paid search. This is a rare opportunity to help build and define the SEO/SEM offering at a quality-first agency that values clarity, outcomes, and smart partnerships.

Responsibilities:

  • Design and deliver SEO and SEM campaigns for government, non-profit, and commercial clients.
  • Set clear goals, manage budgets, and optimize campaigns to improve ROI and client success.
  • Present strategy and insights with confidence — ensuring clients understand what's working and why.
  • Conduct audits and apply best practices in indexing, structure, schema markup, and performance.
  • Launch and refine Google Ads and Microsoft Ads campaigns with a focus on measurable outcomes.
  • Deliver meaningful reports that identify opportunities and drive decision-making aligned with client goals.

About You:

  • 5+ years' hands-on SEO/SEM experience
  • Leadership experience
  • Agency background — you know how to juggle multiple clients and competing priorities
  • Strong analytical mindset — you love translating data into smart decisions
  • Clear communicator — you explain strategy and results in plain English
  • Strategic thinker with a sharp eye for detail and delivery
  • Comfortable around CMS platforms (WordPress, Umbraco) and basic technical language
  • Self-directed, organised, and accountable — you take ownership and follow through
  • Preferred Tools
    : Google Analytics, Search Console, Tag Manager, Microsoft Clarity, Looker Studio, AHREFs, Screaming Frog, SEMrush.

Location:
Robina, QLD

Salary:
$90,000 + Super
