The company helps high-ticket landscaping, contracting, and home service businesses dominate Google Maps and generate leads. We are lean, results-driven, and AI-forward.
The role
Own local SEO campaigns for service businesses, strategy through results. You have a peer who owns GBP, citations, and links. You own everything else, and you co-own the outcome.
What you'll own
* Campaign strategy, keyword research, and a real content plan per client
* Service and service-area page architecture and high-intent content
* On-page and technical SEO: metadata, schema, internal linking, indexation
* Diagnosing ranking drops with logic, and flagging them before anyone asks
* Co-signing keyword targets and GBP direction with your off-page counterpart
* A lean monthly update: 5 to 7 bullets on where each client stands and what's next
How we work
* You own outcomes, not tasks. We don't micromanage, and we don't chase you for updates.
* Any client down 20% or more gets flagged within 24 to 48 hours, with the likely cause and a plan.
* Strong performance leads to more responsibility and more pay.
What you need
* 4+ years running local SEO specifically for service businesses (landscaping, HVAC, contractors, etc.), not ecommerce or general content SEO
* Proven Map Pack results and a real understanding of GBP strategy
* Experience owning multiple client campaigns at once
* Fluent in GA4, GSC, GTM, SEMrush or Ahrefs, Screaming Frog
* AI-forward: you already use ChatGPT or Claude daily for research, content, and audits
* You catch problems before someone else does
Structure
* Ramps to 12 to 15 campaigns as systems mature
* $2,500 to $3,500+/month, performance-based scorecard (deliverables and results)
* Full-time contractor, 100% remote, 14 days PTO
