SEO Consultant
The role of SEO Consultant will involve leading and driving SEO strategies for a range of clients across various industries. Collaborating with like-minded, passionate individuals, you’ll help to deliver success and lead by example for other members of the SEO team.
Whether you're coming from an agency background, or have in-house experience, we'd love to hear from you. Ultimately, you'll know what it takes to produce effective strategies that get results - we’d love to see how that fits with our ethos and methodologies.
You will be required to work in a team to solve problems and think outside the box to reach client goals. We’re looking for someone who thrives in a team environment and can give/take feedback to not only better themselves but also those around them.
You love learning, sharing that information with others, hearing what they have to say and taking on new opinions in a constructive, safe environment – one that's entirely built around personal growth, skill enhancement, and fostering/sharing knowledge for both yourself and those around you.
What you’ll be doing
Creating and shaping effective SEO strategies that exceed the expectations of the client: meeting their business needs, KPIs and goals set out at the early stages of the contract. These strategies could be related to sites hit by algorithm updates, business growth plans, website migrations, website internationalisation and so on: so a good grasp of SEO is essential.
Delivering all manner of deliverables such as technical audits, log file analysis, page speed analysis, keyword research and on-page recommendations etc.
More importantly, you’ll not only be able to carry out these tasks and deliver them on time to clients: you are able to communicate what they mean, prioritise the importance of each tactic based on the client's needs/capabilities in a way that they not only understand, but that drives them to make the changes required.
Regularly attending and holding meetings with clients, leading with confidence and ease to nurture relationships.
Reviewing strategies, analysing data, providing actionable reports and audits.
Contributing ideas and solutions to the SEO department: any questions or issues any individual faces, we face together.
Communicating to other team members and clients who aren’t technically focused in a way that they understand: this requires in-depth understanding on your part and excellent communication skills
An understanding of site analytics tools, such as Google Analytics/Omniture site catalyst, Google Search Console etc.
What we’re looking for
2-3 years experience minimum in a purely SEO-based role.
Experience in developing and executing SEO strategies for clients.
Solid understanding of:
Technical SEO, its importance and the major components that affect site performance.
On-page SEO and content (EEAT): Outside of the fundamentals such as how content ties into strategy and algorithm updates.
Off-site SEO and the role links play in a campaign.
How these all relate to one another and how to communicate about them to different audiences (stakeholders, marketing, SEO consultants, etc).
Knowledge or experience of working with CMS systems.
Strong organisational and presentation skills.
Exceptional communication skills.
The ability to give and receive feedback in a constructive, kind manner.
A keen and interested disposition and attitude.
About Reddico
Founded in 2012, Reddico is an award-winning agency based in Kent, but with team members located all over the UK and the world. We’re a digital marketing agency with a difference. We’ve stripped back the traditional frameworks of a business to create a self-managed approach – giving you a lot more responsibility and accountability in your role.
This sounds great in theory, but in reality, it’s something a lot of people will struggle with. A flat structure, no managers, setting your own targets, managing your own career progression, and making decisions without seeking approval – just some of the things you can expect from Reddico’s culture.
For the right person, Reddico is an amazing place to work. But if this structure isn’t right for you, we won’t be offended. We’re looking for people who can be open and honest, thrive in a high-performing and transparent environment, and aren’t afraid to talk about mistakes and lessons learned.
In 2020 Reddico was named the 4th best place to work in the UK – and we’re continuing to evolve and adapt the business’ culture to become even better.
We’re also proud to be a Certified B Corporation, meaning that we meet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.

Values
We have three company values we expect the team to live by:
We start with trust: We have the mindset of believing the best in people, and that our team will do the right thing. We communicate, we collaborate, we do what we say, and we give each other hard, honest feedback.
We support & inspire each other: We’re a team. We support each other and ask for help when we need it. We share our knowledge, inspire, and put others before ourselves.
We take on responsibility: We don’t shirk responsibility, but take ownership and deliver amazing results. We’re responsible for managing ourselves and our growth. We hold ourselves accountable and learn from mistakes.
Diversity & Inclusion
If everyone looks in the same direction, we’ll be blind to what’s behind us. We need people to challenge the system, think differently, and help Reddico become a better version of itself. To do this, we’re committed to being a diverse and inclusive workplace that you can thrive in. If you share our values and are committed to driving change, you’ll find a home at Reddico.

Recruitment Process
There are four stages to our recruitment process, and the following is what you can expect during the application process:
Fact-finding call: After you’ve submitted your application, if we like what we see and want to find out more, we’ll arrange a call between you and our in-house recruitment administrator. It’ll be a chance for both parties to ask more questions and ensure the role is right for you.
First interview: You’ll then have a first interview. This can take place in person or virtually (depending on your location), and will be with at least two people from the department. It’s a chance to find out more, understand your skills and experience, and work out if we’ll be a good fit.
Task: Following the success of the first interview (and depending on the role), you’ll be asked to complete a task and may need to present the work to a number of people in the team.
Culture interview: The final stage of our recruitment process is a culture interview. This is an open and honest conversation with other people from the team on subjects such as: what it’s really like to work at Reddico, the various practices and policies, our values, and your working style. This isn’t to catch you out. It’s important you know the challenges of working at Reddico, and give us confidence that you’d flourish in this environment.
