• Documentation and Transition:

• Keep work organized and documented so it hands off cleanly to the internal team

• Partner with the incoming SEO Manager to transition accounts as they ramp up

Current Client Accounts

• Construction client (Central Louisiana)

• Mental health services client (Florida)

• Plumbing client (Greater New Orleans area)

• Demonstrated experience in SEO and keyword research, ideally in an agency or multi-client setting

• Self-directed and reliable, with clear communication and tidy documentation habits
