The Role
We're hiring for a Head of SEO to own organic search presence across our iGaming and Rewards propositions in the UK and US. This is a build role: you'll set the strategy, hire the team and put the tooling and processes in place to execute.
You'll turn organic search into a predictable, compliant growth channel measured on commercial outcomes, not just rankings. That means registrations, FTDs and revenue for iGaming, and sign-ups and active members for Rewards.
You'll look after four sites: cashback.co.uk, joincustard.co.uk, strikewild.co.uk and slotswise.com.
Key Responsibilities
Strategy and ownership
Set and own the organic search strategy for iGaming and Rewards across the UK and US, with clear targets and a 12-month roadmap
Prioritise by commercial value: focus effort on the verticals, states, merchants and page types that drive FTDs, revenue and member growth
Own the SEO budget and make the case for investment in people, tools, content and links
Work closely with commercial, paid, CRM, brand and compliance teams so SEO priorities match merchant deals and launch plans
Building the team
Hire and lead a team from scratch, starting with the roles the roadmap needs most (for example, technical SEO, content SEO, outreach)
Decide what to build in-house and what to outsource, and manage agencies and freelancers where it makes sense
Set the processes, playbooks and tooling the team runs on
Technical SEO
Own site health across our properties: crawlability, indexation, site architecture, Core Web Vitals, structured data and internal linking
Work with product and engineering to put SEO into templates, releases and migrations from the start
Build scalable page frameworks for reviews, comparisons, offers and state or market landing pages
Content and authority
Set the content strategy and editorial standards, with E-E-A-T and YMYL expectations built in
Lead a safe, sustainable approach to digital PR and link acquisition in competitive, closely watched SERPs
Shape our approach to AI-powered search, AI Overviews and generative engine optimisation (GEO) so our brands are cited and trusted
Markets and compliance
Run distinct UK and US plans that reflect each market's regulation, search behaviour and competition
Plan US state launches so content and authority are ready ahead of go-live
Make sure every page meets UKGC, ASA/CAP, US state and responsible gambling requirements
Measurement
Build reporting that links organic traffic to clickouts, registrations, FTDs and revenue
Track rankings, share of voice and competitor movement, and act on what the data shows
Report performance and forecasts to the leadership team
About You
