SEO & GEO Account Lead

Search is no longer one channel — it's the entire discovery layer of the internet. At Rise at Seven, we built our agency around that belief before it became conventional wisdom, and the industry is catching up fast. We turn clients into category leaders by meeting audiences wherever they search — across onsite, e-commerce, SERPs, social search, AI and LLMs, and dark search channels like Reddit. Our strategies don't just chase rankings; they build demand, shape perception, and drive discoverability at scale. As an organic SEO & content strategist, you'll be the strategic engine behind a portfolio of ambitious clients — translating search data, consumer behaviour, and creative thinking into organic content plans that drive growth (through onsite, media and social) This isn't a role for someone who optimises in isolation. You'll connect technical rigour with content strategy, work cross-functionally with PR, paid, and creative teams, and communicate results in a way that earns client trust and drives commercial decisions. You bring an obsessive understanding of the consumer, strong commercial instincts, and a genuine excitement about what search is becoming.
