​​​​​​​Sr. SEO Manager - REMOTE

Company Overview

We are a fast-growing digital marketing agency focused on delivering exceptional performance for therapy and healthcare businesses. In under a year, we’ve grown from 18 to 52 clients—and that pace isn't slowing down. With an international team across the U.S., Philippines, LATAM, South Africa, and Pakistan, we’re now seeking a high-impact Senior SEO Manager to level up our strategy and execution.

The Opportunity: Senior SEO Manager

This is not a traditional SEO role. This is a performance-driven leadership role that combines SEO strategy, execution oversight, and team management.

We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just “do SEO”—you need to think and breathe performance marketing. You should be wired to ask, “What will move the needle right now?” and stay constantly curious about what will work next in the fast-evolving world of SEO.

We already have two task-oriented SEO specialists. What we’re missing—and urgently need—is a strategic lead who can drive fast results, own the SEO product, and elevate our performance across high-tier accounts.

This is your chance to step into a key leadership role, build and improve systems, and ensure our strategies are implemented quickly and effectively.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead and manage the SEO department with full ownership of the product and results

  • Think like a performance marketer—focused on speed, outcomes, and impact

  • Strategize and create tailored SEO plans for new clients, then cascade tasks to the team

  • Oversee and ensure execution of core deliverables—audits, citations, on-page/off-page SEO, etc.

  • Constantly analyze performance and competitor tactics to refine and improve our strategy

  • Distribute workload across international team members (currently in PH, LATAM, SA, PK)

  • Manage SEO-related communication with internal teams and critical high-tier accounts

  • Reuse and optimize proven strategies across clients rather than reinventing each time

  • Build systems and processes that improve speed, consistency, and scalability

  • Hire, mentor, and manage SEO team members as needed

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven leadership in SEO: strategy, project management, and people oversight

  • Deep understanding of technical, on-page, and off-page SEO, including citations

  • Performance marketing mindset—urgency, measurable results, and constant iteration

  • Naturally curious and experimental—always asking, “What will work better next?”

  • Fast, independent, resourceful, and solutions-oriented

  • Able to develop systems, manage workflow, and lead a team across multiple time zones

  • Strong organizational and communication skills

  • Based in LATAM, Philippines, South Africa, or Pakistan (PH team members may need to work earlier hours once trained)

  • Ready to start ASAP

What We’re Not Looking For

  • Someone who needs to be spoon-fed or micromanaged

  • Slow responders or people who avoid ownership

  • Anyone who says “that’s not my job”

  • Someone who hides behind “SEO takes time” instead of driving impact fast

If you’re a strategic, performance-driven SEO leader who thrives on speed, results, and experimentation—and knows how to own a product and lead a global team—we want to hear from you.
