Leeds City Centre | £25,000-£30,000 | Hybrid | Junior / Developing SEO Role

We're partnering with a growing, search-led B2B digital marketing agency in Leeds that is looking for a Search Executive to join its Search & Content team.

This is a great opportunity for someone with 1-2 years' agency-side SEO or digital marketing experience who wants more ownership, closer exposure to strategy, and the chance to grow quickly in a smaller, ambitious agency environment.

The agency is moving beyond traditional SEO into broader search visibility, including AI search, answer engine optimisation, content, social search, technical SEO and performance-led organic strategy. You'll be joining a small, supportive team where you can learn directly from experienced search specialists and have a genuine voice in how work is delivered.

The Role

As Search Executive, you'll support the delivery of organic search strategies across a range of B2B clients. Your work will include a mix of content, technical SEO, research, reporting and campaign support.

You'll be involved in:

Keyword research, search intent analysis and competitor research
SEO audits and performance reviews using tools such as Semrush, Google Search Console and Screaming Frog
Creating content briefs based on research, strategy and client tone of voice
Writing and optimising content for websites, blogs, social and other digital channels
Uploading and editing content in WordPress
Supporting monthly and quarterly reports, including explaining performance movements
Helping the team brief technical and content tasks clearly
Learning how AI search, social search and answer-led search are changing organic visibility
Working closely with the Search & Content Lead and the wider digital team The role has a strong content element, so strong writing skills are important. The client is interested in people who can use AI intelligently as a support tool, but who still understand the value of human-quality copy, clear thinking and proper fact-checking.

What We're Looking For

You'll likely be a good fit if you have:

Around 1-2 years' experience in an agency environment
Experience in an SEO, Search Executive, Digital Marketing Executive or Content SEO role
Good working knowledge of SEO fundamentals
Experience with tools such as Semrush, Google Search Console, Screaming Frog and WordPress
Strong copywriting skills and the ability to adapt tone of voice for different clients
An interest in AI search, AEO, ChatGPT, Reddit, TikTok, YouTube and how people now discover brands online
High attention to detail and a willingness to ask questions, learn and improve
A proactive, friendly and collaborative approach
A genuine interest in digital marketing, search trends and how online visibility is changing Experience with B2B clients, professional services, finance, tech, CRO, paid media, digital PR or wider digital strategy would be useful, but it is not essential.

The Environment

This is a small, close-knit agency team where people work hard, support one another and get stuck in. It would suit someone who wants more exposure and progression than they might get in a larger agency.

You'll be joining a team where search is central to the business, not an add-on. The right person will be curious, confident enough to share ideas, and keen to develop into a more strategic search role over time.
