We’re seeking a true SEO leader who thrives in a dynamic, results-driven environment and can own the full spectrum of organic search — from advanced off-page strategy to deep technical audits and world-class content frameworks.
Experience in the iGaming industry is a must.
Role Overview
As Head of SEO, you will define and lead our global organic search strategy, driving sustainable traffic, acquisition, and revenue growth. You’ll be both strategic and hands-on — working across link acquisition, technical optimisation, content excellence, and performance analytics.

Key Responsibilities
* Develop and execute a data-driven SEO strategy tailored to the iGaming market, aligned with business objectives and commercial KPIs.
* Own deep technical SEO: conduct log-file analysis for crawl budget optimisation, resolve JS/SSR rendering issues, optimise Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS), and ensure strong site architecture and performance.
* Direct strategic content initiatives: perform intent-based query clustering (reviews, guides, category hubs), and create content frameworks that extend E-E-A-T through expert profiles, responsible gambling content, and localisation strategies.
* Manage SEO budgets and performance analytics: translate business goals into link, content, and tool budgets; integrate SEO data (GSC/GA4) with BI systems; monitor and mitigate negative SEO risks.
* Oversee robust on-page SEO: design scalable meta-tag templates, implement interlinking and silo structures, and maximise internal link equity.
* Report regularly to senior stakeholders: present performance updates, link technical outcomes to business KPIs, and educate teams on SEO priorities.
* Stay ahead of algorithm updates, search trends, and regulatory frameworks in iGaming.
Required Skills & Experience
* 5+ years of proven SEO experience, ideally within iGaming or other highly competitive, regulated industries.
* Mandatory experience in iGaming SEO, with a clear understanding of the industry’s compliance and marketing challenges.
* Deep expertise in off-page SEO: link networks and high-quality outreach campaigns.
* Strong technical SEO proficiency: crawl optimisation, rendering issues, log analysis, Core Web Vitals, and large-scale site management.
* Strategic content skills: intent-based keyword clustering, E-E-A-T implementation, and scalable content team leadership.
* Commercial acumen: ability to plan budgets, track ROI, and align SEO impact with revenue metrics.
* Excellent collaboration skills with cross-functional teams (product, engineering, content, UX).
* Outstanding English communication skills (written and verbal).
* Proficiency in major SEO and analytics tools (Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, GSC, GA4, etc.).
What We Offer
* A senior leadership position with ownership of organic growth strategy in a dynamic, international environment.
* Full autonomy to innovate and implement your SEO vision.
* Competitive salary.
* Opportunity to build and lead a high-performance SEO team.
* Career growth in one of the world’s most competitive and fast-moving digital industries.
