SEO Specialist (005-0735)

We are looking for a Philippines-based SEO Specialist to work as an independent contractor for an Australian-owned business. The successful candidate will have full ownership of the SEO strategy and will be responsible for executing technical, on-page, and off-page SEO tasks. The role requires a strong understanding of Australian markets, language, and search intent, as well as the ability to write and optimise ad copy and content that resonates with regional and rural audiences.

Requirements

• 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
