SEO Manager

ABOUT US 🕶️

We are a full-remote performance marketing agency with "headquarters" in the sunny Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy, Earth, Solar System, Milky Way (you get the idea!).

We’re here to support international companies rise and shine by fusing their unique energy with bright ideas, powering up their performance marketing strategies through personalized solutions.

At the same time, we enjoy our high-quality life in Italy and around the world :-D

We're actually building a mega map of places where we've worked in the past few years. Will you help us add more pins to the map? https://www.google.com/maps/d/... 

YOU’LL DO AT MIDSUMMER 🌞

• Plan, manage, and bring to the next level amazing on-page and off-page international SEO projects (for both e-commerce and lead-generation businesses)
• Build and maintain client relationships, lead weekly/monthly meetings, and adopt a proactive consultative approach.
• Coordinate with different teams and stakeholders (content creators, developers, designers, and PPC teams)
• Participate in SEO audits and pre-sales strategies for prospective clients
• Train and mentor future SEO stars
• Support the growth of our SEO department and the agency
• Enjoy the sun

REQUIREMENTS 👇

You are:

• Resident in Italy and have an EU Working Permit (for boring bureaucracy stuff)

• Fluent in English. Knowing how to order a draft beer in London would not be enough. (Please declare if you are native or possessed C1 Certification or have lived in a foreign English-speaking country) 

MUST HAVE 😍

• 2 years of agency-side SEO experience
• Strong understanding of both technical and content SEO
• Experience with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS
• Experience with GA4, SEM Rush, Screaming Frog and similar tools
• Not afraid of becoming our Head of SEO in the next year or two
  

BIG PLUS(ES) 👍

• Experience with SEO implementation for Shopify, Prestashop, Bigcommerce, Magento, WordPress, or custom websites
• Additional languages (Italian, German, French, Spanish, or any others)
• Experience with copywriting AI tools (ChatGTP or similar)

WHAT YOU’LL GET IN RETURN 💰

• Full-time permanent contract with a gross annual salary between €25K and €35K + benefits (see the long list below. There's more to be said about the compensation, so if in doubt, please do apply!)

• Work from anywhere: we don’t have an office. So far, we’ve got on our list: our own house, coworking spaces, bars / cafés / restaurants, camper, b&b, and hotels, a long list of countries (including Spain, Sweden, UK, Germany, UAE, US, Mexico, The Seychelles and more)

• Flexible hours: we’re not strict with the usual 9-18 office hours. You can make the most of your day by starting earlier, taking longer lunch breaks, or staying late until the evening if you have other stuff to do (like laundry, picking up your kids from school, or just taking a walk). Whatever resonates with your lifestyle.

• Half-day Fridays (yes, we take Friday afternoons off). This one is pretty self-explanatory. Let's do the math: 4h x 52 weeks = 208 hours, which means you get more than an extra month of paid time off per year!

• Your Birthday & Midsummer Anniversary Day Off

• Ability to develop your skills in different markets, languages, and industries

• Be part of the company and not only work for the company. Join a young but experienced team

• Autonomy and responsibility from day one

• Continuous internal and external training

• Chance to participate in industry events both as an attendee and speaker

• €1.000/year employee welfare program, for well-being, leisure activities, online shopping, and more

• €1.000/year training, events & coworking budget

• €2.000 equipment budget for your new fancy pc/mac, monitor, headset

• Quarterly social activities: we love to have fun together at least once per quarter

• Staff and client referral bonus: bring in a new client or a fellow Midsummer Dreamer and earn a reward!

HOW TO APPLY & MISCELLANEOUS 👇

💻 Apply with CV and cover letter in English

🥇Briefly describe a success story about a client you managed

🗺️Location: Full Remote (50% of the team is based in or around Cagliari though)

In 2024, our team will be like elusive unicorns: mostly remote but occasionally spotted in the wild during Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) and legendary Midsummer Events (fully expensed by the company). We totally get it, though – flying to the Island can be hard if you're living abroad. But we're on a mission to make these journeys as fair and easy as possible, so get your backpack ready for some Midsummer adventures!🦄✈️🌴
