Senior Organic Search Executive

Trusted to connect the two disciplines on an account. The choice between the management and specialist paths is made at the end of this level. Your expertise in integrated organic search is trusted on complex work, and you start passing it on to others.

EquivalentShared level, no parallel role. At the end of this level you choose between the management path (Organic Search Lead, L4) and the specialist path (Organic Search Strategist, L4)

Shape campaign ideas around the pages and topics the account needs authority for.

Review Executives' work before it reaches the account owner.
Independently handle difficult client situations, feedback and pushback professionally, addressing concerns and guiding conversations towards clear next steps.
Maintain client confidence and satisfaction through clear communication and expectation management as results develop.
Turn recurring fixes into documented process.
Support the onboarding of new Executives onto your accounts.
