We’re looking for an SEO / GEO Content Executive to join our eCommerce team. In this role, you’ll help shape and deliver content that drives organic traffic, improves conversion, and supports ecommerce revenue growth.
You’ll take ownership of planning, creating, and optimising content across our website and blog — making sure it performs not just in traditional search engines, but also across AI-powered and generative search platforms. Working closely with teams across Commercial and Marketing, including Brand, PR, CRM, and Social, you’ll help ensure our content is consistent, visible, and commercially effective.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys blending creativity with data, and who’s excited by how search, content, and AI are evolving.

Collaborating with teams across Commercial and Marketing to align content with wider business goals
About you...
You’re a confident content creator with a strong understanding of SEO and ecommerce. You enjoy using data to inform decisions, but you also know how to write content that connects with people and supports commercial outcomes.
You’re comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, juggling multiple priorities, and collaborating with different teams. You’re curious by nature, proactive in your approach, and always looking for ways to improve performance.
You’ll bring:
