SEO Lead (f/m/d) Berlin

We Love X in Berlin is praised for a dynamic, growth‑oriented culture with a strong value system, flexible hybrid work options, and clear paths for career development. The company is described as one of the fastest‑growing players in the affiliate industry, and Glassdoor shows an average rating around 4.8/5 across 10 reviews (Culture & Values ~4.8; Work/Life Balance ~4.7; Senior Management ~4.7; Compensation & Benefits ~4.5). Common criticisms include reports of micromanagement and a “culture of fear” in at least one Kununu review, plus concerns about workload and the volatility of the affiliate market. Sustainability/CSR signals are mixed: some reviews say Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein could improve, while WLX markets a values‑driven culture and development focus in its own materials (and on LinkedIn), suggesting CSR efforts are being built but not yet quantified.

What does the role involve?

As SEO Lead, you own the affiliate portfolio and drive SEO strategy across multiple sites spanning a wide variety of verticals. You’ll manage a small team of SEO Content Managers, lead go-lives into new markets, and move fast to adapt when SEO changes require it. You'll have autonomy to set direction and prioritize bets that move the needle.

Who will I work with and how will I collaborate?

You'll partner with some of the world's biggest publishers and collaborate closely with the Head of Product to align on goals. The role is defined by ownership and hands-on execution, with no client briefs and a direct line to revenue impact. You'll influence cross-functional decisions and shape outcomes across the portfolio.

What makes this role unique at WLX?

At WLX, SEO is a driving force, not a support function, backed by resources and management support to move quickly. Everything built is WLX-owned and developed in close collaboration with publishers, ensuring real ownership and direct impact on a growing, multi-vertical portfolio. If you love moving fast in a high-growth environment, this is the place to shape a scalable, revenue-positive SEO program.

What background and skills help you succeed?

Strong experience in SEO strategy, affiliate marketing, and leading a small content-focused team is essential. You should be comfortable working across diverse verticals, prioritizing data-driven experiments, and executing rapid go-lives and market expansions. A bias toward action and excellent collaboration with publishers will set you up for impact.

What is the impact and growth opportunity?

You'll shape a growing portfolio worth millions and directly influence revenue through strategic SEO decisions. This is a chance to own end-to-end projects from concept to launch and see real, measurable results. In a fast-paced environment, your initiatives can scale quickly across markets.

What are the next steps to apply?

Interested candidates should apply and expect a streamlined interview loop with the leadership team. You'll have a chance to discuss strategy, share case studies, and explore how you can lead WLX's SEO-driven growth. If you bring ambition and a track record of delivering measurable SEO impact, we want to hear from you.
