If you’re ready to put search at the heart of the marketing mix, and lead clients through the future of organic discovery, then Rise at Seven is for you. The industry is evolving fast, with demand for search and brand alignment at an all-time high and Rise at Seven has built ahead of the boom.
We turn clients into category leaders, looking at all areas of search such as onsite, ecomm, SERPs (Google, Bing etc.), social search (TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube), AI & LLMs, and dark search (Reddit, Giphy). We meet audiences wherever they search, designing creative strategies that increase demand and discoverability.

- Familiarity with how AI, LLMs, and emerging platforms are reshaping organic search.
- Strong understanding of technical, on-page, off-page, and content SEO tactics, plus the ability to tie them together into growth strategies.

- Comfortable collaborating across SEO, PR, Social, Content, and Creative teams to deliver integrated campaigns.
