Company Description
Job Description
We are looking for a local SEO practitioner to step into an active performance problem. Organic lead volume is declining across a portfolio of home services brands - including double-digit year-over-year drops at several locations - and there is no external vendor currently in place to address it. This person comes in, audits fast, identifies the highest-impact gaps, and starts fixing them. The work is urgent and the opportunity to move the needle quickly is real.
The Situation
Year-to-date organic performance across a portfolio of home services brands shows clear, recoverable declines that are directly impacting lead volume and revenue. Key indicators include:
These gaps are recoverable. The discrepancies across brands point to execution and infrastructure issues, not market conditions. This role exists to find and close them.
