Why Avid Panda?

Avid Panda is an award-winning digital marketing agency experiencing fast, healthy growth, and you'll be joining at a genuinely exciting time. We're a small, highly skilled team where your work doesn't get buried under layers of sign-off; you'll make a visible impact from day one.

We're obsessed with quality, transparency, and doing the right thing for our clients. Our retention rate is exceptional because we don't cut corners, and because our team is made up of people who genuinely care about doing great work.

Inside the agency, we encourage new ideas, smarter processes, and curiosity. If you can make something better, we want to hear about it. You'll be surrounded by people who enjoy levelling up, sharing knowledge, and experimenting with new approaches, especially in the rapidly evolving world of AI and SEO.

You'll benefit from structured training, hands-on mentorship, and an environment that actively invests in your development. As you grow in confidence and capability, you'll have opportunities to take on larger accounts, own more strategic work, mentor future team members, specialise in areas like UX, technical SEO or content strategy, and progress as the agency expands.

We offer a hybrid working setup, with focused office collaboration in Birmingham city centre and the flexibility of working from home on Wednesdays and Fridays, alongside a supportive, ambitious culture where people progress quickly because they're given real responsibility and room to develop.

Why You?

Because you're hungry. You have a real thirst for SEO knowledge and genuinely enjoy being the person who figures things out. You've already had some hands-on experience, and now you want to work somewhere that pushes you further, fast.

You're the sort of person who doesn't just follow a checklist; you want to understand why something works so you can do it better next time. You take ownership seriously, manage your time well, and get a real kick out of seeing your work move rankings, traffic and revenue in the right direction.

You'll fit right in at Avid Panda because you bring fresh ideas, strong attention to detail, and the kind of attitude that lifts the team around you. Most importantly, you care about the craft, about our clients, and about your own development.
