Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

You’ll collaborate closely with the SEO Lead to refine strategies, interpret data, and present insights for clients. You’ll also guide junior team members, helping maintain the standard of thoughtful, creative, and culturally attuned SEO.

• Excellent communication and time management in remote settings.
  

Bonus Points
