Technical SEO Specialist

We are seeking a Technical SEO Specialist to oversee the technical health of our e-commerce platform, ensuring that our extensive portfolio of product pages, categories, and editorial content is effectively crawled, indexed, and ranked by search engines.This isn't a "run a report once a month" role. You'll be the person who actually owns crawlability, indexing and site architecture end to end, digging into crawl data, fixing what's broken, and partnering closely with our web development and product teams to make sure nothing stands between our content and the search results it deserves.Protein Works is scaling fast, and our catalogue keeps growing with it. That means there's always another crawl budget to optimise, another schema type to roll out, another Core Web Vital to chase. If you're the kind of person who gets restless when something's "good enough" and wants to see your fixes show up in real organic growth, this is a genuinely meaty technical SEO role.About Protein Works Protein Works is a high-growth DTC nutrition brand with a clear mission: help people live healthier, happier lives through the power of nutrition.We are growing, investing and hiring with purpose. If you want to join a business with the energy of a challenger and the foundations of a market leader, this is the right moment to do it.What You'll Do

• Own the technical health of our e-commerce platform, running regular site crawls to catch and resolve crawl errors, broken links and rendering issues before they cost us traffic.
• Take control of indexing, managing XML sitemaps, robots.txt, canonical tags and noindex directives to keep our crawl budget focused on the pages that actually matter.
• Partner with our web development team to push Core Web Vitals, image compression and server response times in the right direction.
• Tame faceted navigation, optimising filter and sort URLs to shut down duplicate content and index bloat across thousands of product listings.
• Build and maintain structured data, including product, review, aggregate rating and organisation schema, to help search engines (and shoppers) understand our pages properly.
• Track site health daily using Google Search Console, Screaming Frog and log file analysis, spotting problems early rather than reacting to them later.

Ideal Candidate

• Experience gained where you were focused specifically on technical SEO, ideally within a large-scale e-commerce environment.
• Hands-on experience with Magento Platforms..
• Confident day to day with tools like Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, Ahrefs, Semrush, Botify or Deepcrawl.
• Solid understanding of HTML, CSS, HTTP status codes and how JavaScript rendering (client side vs server side) affects what search engines actually see.
• Comfortable pulling and interpreting data in GA4, Excel/Google Sheets or Looker Studio, and using it to back up your recommendations.
• You take real ownership of site health rather than waiting to be told there's a problem, and you're always looking for the next thing to sharpen.
