What does the role involve?

As an SEO Account Manager, you’ll own end-to-end SEO campaigns for client brands, from onboarding and discovery to tactical execution and reporting. You’ll conduct keyword research, oversee on-page optimization, technical SEO fixes, and collaborate with content, analytics, and paid teams to maximize impact. You’ll craft testable hypotheses, monitor results, and translate data into clear, actionable client updates.

What makes House Digital's approach to SEO unique?

House Digital champions a hypothesis-driven, data-first approach rather than chasing vanity metrics. We operate across multi-channel campaigns with a strong ecommerce focus, prioritizing predictable, measurable growth and long-term partnerships. We’re not just reporting sessions and impressions—we’re architects for extraordinary growth.

What skills and experience are you looking for?

You’ll bring several years of agency SEO experience, with hands-on technical and content optimization capabilities, and a confident client-facing presence. Proficiency in analytics tools, keyword strategies, and performance reporting is essential, along with excellent communication and project management. A curious mindset, commercial awareness, and a proactive approach to experimentation help you stand out.

Where is the role based and what about hybrid working?

The role is based in Manchester (City Centre) or Burscough, with a flexible hybrid setup to balance collaboration and focused work. You’ll join a collaborative team that enjoys a mix of in-person workshops and remote collaboration. Regular client meetings and internal scrums keep momentum high.

What opportunities are there for growth and development?

House Digital is a growth-focused training company as well as a digital agency, so you’ll have access to ongoing learning, certifications, and cross-functional projects. You’ll be encouraged to own campaigns, lead initiatives, and progress into senior roles with wider client portfolios. Mentorship and structured progression help you accelerate your career.

What are the next steps in the hiring process?

Our process typically includes an initial screen, a skills assessment or case study, and a couple of interviews with team leads and leadership. We aim for timely feedback and a supportive atmosphere to help you showcase your best work. You’ll know where you stand at each stage and what to expect next.
