Analyse website performance using Google Analytics, Search Console, and Google Tag Manager to identify opportunities for improvement. Monitor technical aspects of websites such as site speed, mobile responsiveness, and structured data implementation. Collaborate with content creators to optimise social media content for better engagement and reach. Stay updated with the latest SEO trends, algorithm changes, and best practices to ensure ongoing optimisation success. Assist in managing metadata across all digital assets to enhance search engine indexing. Coordinate with our web developer to implement technical fixes related to HTML, CSS, or JavaScript that impact SEO performance.

Experience
