* Create compelling ad copy and optimise landing pages (with our UX/UI team) to maximise click-through and conversion rates.
* Implement retargeting campaigns to re-engage visitors who don’t convert.
* Conduct keyword research and optimise Osdire’s website for SEO, including on-page elements (meta tags, headers) and content structure.
* Develop a backlink strategy to boost domain authority, targeting freelancing/tech blogs or directories.
* Track and analyse campaign performance using tools like Google Analytics and SEMrush, reporting weekly to the Marketing Manager.
* Optimise campaigns based on data (e.g., adjust bids, refine keywords) to improve metrics like cost per acquisition and organic traffic growth.
* Collaborate with the Social Media/Content Marketer to align PPC ads with social campaigns and with the Email Marketing Specialist to funnel leads into email campaigns.
* Work with our Laravel, Vue.js, Flutter, and UX/UI teams to ensure landing pages and platform features support SEO and PPC goals.
Qualifications:
* 3–5 years of experience in PPC and SEO, ideally in tech startups or e-commerce/marketplace platforms.
* Proven success managing Google Ads campaigns and optimising websites for organic search.
* Proficiency in tools like Google Ads, Google Analytics, Search Console, SEMrush, or Ahrefs.
* Strong analytical skills to interpret data and optimise campaign performance.
* Ability to create compelling ad copy and understand landing page optimisation.
* Experience working in fast-paced environments with tight deadlines.
