SEO Manager

This is a 100% Remote Position based anywhere in the United States with work hours primarily in ET or CT zones.

Come forge your own career path at an agency that prioritizes making lives better—including our employees, our families and our clients. At Kuno, we do “marketing that matters,” and we are seeking an ambitious, business-minded SEO expert who can help our company grow.

Your goal as the SEO Manager is to help guide the SEO team with a vision of organic growth, based on a consultative approach followed by implementation and reporting. You’ll be responsible for uncovering and accountable for the execution of the tactics that will move the needle for the client, and capture and nurture leads to grow their revenue—while generating more revenue for these services at Kuno.

You will act as the key stakeholder for SEO throughout the organization working cross-functionally to increase overall search rankings and traffic, manage the development of technical SEO implementations, and monitor changes in our page rankings. Additionally, in this role, you will be responsible for helping to grow this department by managing several SEO accounts and educating and assisting your SEO teammates.

Beyond just SEO, you will succeed in this role by combining great leadership experience with fantastic communication skills and a focus on strategic planning. We are hoping you will blow us away and grow quickly into a director role.

Since you will be contributing to the growth of the company, you will become an official employee-owner of the company on Day 1.
