 - Realign SEO towards investing and crypto growth opportunities
 - Optimise for emerging AI search behaviours and answer engines
 - Partner with central technical teams to maintain SEO health
 - Set and deliver against KPIs including share of search, organic traffic, and conversion
 - Manage one direct report and SEO agencies for performance delivery
 - Collaborate across Paid Media, CRM, and Brand to integrate SEO into wider marketing plans
 
What you'll bring
- 5+ years' SEO experience, including 2+ years in a leadership or growth-focused role
 - Proven success driving organic growth in competitive sectors (FinTech, trading, or eCommerce)
 - Strong technical and content SEO expertise; ASO experience a plus
 - Commercial, data-driven mindset with a hands-on approach
 - Confident communicator able to translate SEO impact into business results
 
Why join us?
