    • Assist with weekly and monthly reporting.
    • Regularly monitor Google Analytics 4, Google Search Console, Ahrefs and SEMRush for traffic fluctuations and insights.
    • Keep an eye on new and upcoming SEO trends, Google Algorithm updates, platforms and platform features to drive strategy.
What you will bring

    • Agency or SaaS/marketplace experience highly valued
    • A creative problem solver and critical thinker, with great attention to detail
    • Proactive and takes initiative when solving problems and finding new solutions
