[Hiring] SEO Specialist @Hunt St

Role Description

Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: SEO Specialist

Compensation range: $2,000 - $3,000 AUD/month

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

We’re looking for someone who wants to grow with the business and make SEO a core driver of success. You’ll have full ownership of strategy, the autonomy to execute properly, and the opportunity to make a measurable impact. This role suits someone who thrives working independently. If you need constant direction, it won’t be the right fit. But if you’re self-driven and results-focused, you’ll do well here.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and execute the full SEO strategy (technical, on-page, and off-page)
• Conduct in-depth keyword research with a strong focus on Australian search behaviour and local intent
• Craft and optimise ad copy and SEO content that resonates with Australian farmers, tradies, and business owners
• Perform technical audits including site structure, crawlability, indexing, page speed, and schema implementation
• Identify and execute high-quality link-building opportunities
• Create and optimise content that not only ranks — but converts
• Monitor rankings, traffic, and performance metrics with a sharp, data-driven approach
• Provide clear reporting and actionable insights to improve performance
• Stay ahead of algorithm updates and continuously refine strategy
• Have a proven track record of delivering measurable SEO results (rankings, traffic, conversions — show us the data)
• Have a strong understanding of Australian markets, language, and search intent
• Know how to write or guide ad copy and content that connects with regional and rural audiences
• Live and breathe SEO — you’re constantly learning, testing, and refining
• Are highly skilled in technical SEO, not just content optimisation
• Are confident using tools such as Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, and GA4
• Can work autonomously and manage your own priorities effectively
• Communicate clearly and translate data into practical strategies
• Are motivated to build something meaningful — not just maintain existing work

Work Arrangement & Expectations

This is a remote role that will be set up as an independent contractor engagement. To ensure alignment and transparency, successful candidates will be expected to:

• Disclose any existing ongoing roles or client work
• Reflect this engagement on their LinkedIn profile (clearly marked as “Independent Contractor”)
