The Role
This role will immerse you in the world of leading SEO campaigns, starting with an intensive 3-month training program covering the four pillars of SEO — keywords, content, technical and links — and how to apply these to your current project management skills.

Following your training period, you will be assigned a dedicated account assistant and a specific industry to focus your attention on, building an industry niche within the SEO agency.
