We are partnering with one of Australia's largest and most established retail groups to appoint a senior SEO leader in a high‐impact, enterprise‐level role. This organisation operates a multi‐brand portfolio across Australia and New Zealand, with a significant store network, substantial ecommerce scale, and an extensive product catalogue spanning thousands of SKUs. The digital channel is a critical growth driver, underpinned by ongoing investment in platform capability, data infrastructure and cross‐functional integration. Organic search is recognised as a core commercial lever, with executive visibility and clear performance accountability. This is a rare opportunity to shape and lead enterprise SEO strategy within a nationally recognised retail environment.

* Providing leadership and development to an in‐house SEO team, alongside effective management of specialist agency partners
