* Produce high-quality AI-assisted, human-led content briefs for copywriters (search intent, structure, entities, internal links, EEAT considerations).
* Work with multiple brands and ensure recommendations align with each client’s positioning and tone of voice.
Authority Building & Off-page
* Conduct off-page and competitor analysis to identify link profile opportunities, vertical trends and risks.
* Improve authority through ethical, high-quality recommendations (no spam tactics).
Reporting & Client Communication

* Have a clear understanding of commercial opportunities and outcomes during reporting periods.
* Resolve technical queries, interpret performance and prepare monthly SEO reports with insights and next-step actions.
