Global SEO Lead

Global SEO / GEO Lead

Employment Hero is on a mission to make employment easier and more valuable for everyone. Our Employment Operating System brings hiring, HR, payroll and benefits into an all-in-one solution.

Since our inception in 2014, we've scaled to a $2 billion valuation and gained a presence in 6 countries globally - Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, the UK and Canada. We now service over 300,000 businesses and more than 2 million employees.

At Employment Hero, we're proud of our unique DNA, which we call The EH Way.

• We are Mission First - everything we do (from what we work on, to how we allocate capital and where we focus) is driven by our Mission
• We are Remote First - we champion a remote environment with a preference for asynchronous communication and a high degree of autonomy
• We are AI First - we are committed to using AI to accelerate our mission; AI is not just a tool, it's a fundamental part of how we operate, innovate, and scale
• We are Apolitical - we do not take a position on political or social topics, unless it relates to our Mission
• We Live by Our Values - we role model our values 100% of the time
• We Expect High Performance - we set a high standard and we're not satisfied with being average

This is a senior strategic role with hands-on execution where needed, combining deep SEO expertise, technical capability, and a forward-thinking approach to AI search.

You will build and refine scalable SEO systems and processes - from audits, keyword research, and content brief creation to on-page optimisation, link building, and digital PR - while constantly looking for opportunities to automate and improve how we operate. You'll guide and mentor an SEO team, collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders, and ensure our roadmap is delivered on time and aligned with business goals.

We're looking for someone who is genuinely passionate about SEO, curious and experimental with GEO / AEO, and experienced in fast-paced SaaS, marketplace, or high-performing agency environments. You will bring a proven track record of delivering SEO growth at scale, exceptional organisational and communication skills, a can-do attitude, and the creativity to think outside the box. Ultimately, you will champion "The EH Way," push boundaries in search, and proactively find new ways for us to win in both traditional SEO and the emerging world of AI-powered discovery.

To thrive at Employment Hero, you'll need to embody The EH Way - operating with focus, agility, and an obsession with impact. For this role, you'll also bring
