• Partner with development teams and agencies to implement SEO best practices and ensure alignment with business objectives.
• Support product launches and marketing campaigns with dedicated SEO and GEO strategies.
• Collaborate closely with Marketing, eCommerce, Product Management, and international stakeholders.

• 3+ years of experience in SEO, Organic Search, Digital Marketing, or a comparable role.
• Proven experience developing and executing SEO strategies independently.
• Experience managing and directing external agencies.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
• Solid understanding of technical SEO, including crawlability, metadata, site architecture, page speed, indexation, and structured data.
• Strong knowledge of content optimization, keyword research, content strategy, and information architecture.
• Experience with backlink strategies and authority-building initiatives.
• Understanding of AI Search, Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and the impact of AI on search behavior.
• Up‑to‑date knowledge of search engine algorithms, AI developments, and industry trends.
• Strong analytical skills with experience using tools such as Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, and Google Analytics.
• Ability to translate data into actionable insights and recommendations.
• Comfortable operating independently and taking ownership.
• Fluent in Dutch and English.

• Digital recruitment process and onboarding to the company.
• Work for a well‑known global brand.
• You will join a collaborative, data‑driven team focused on precision and innovation.
• Working from home 2 days/week.
