About the role
We’re looking for a mid‑to‑senior freelance SEO specialist to work alongside the Hallam core team 2–3 days per week. We’ve landed a couple of significant new accounts this year and need extra capacity – both to support overall team workload and to provide direct strategic input on a new Key Account.

The role is fully remote and ongoing. You’ll be treated as an extension of the team rather than an arm’s‑length contractor.

Keyword research

Technical audits

Internal linking audits

Content briefing and content strategy

Entity optimisation

Meta optimisation

Link acquisition strategy

What we’re looking for
Experience

Mid‑to‑senior level, with a track record of working inside digital agencies.

Comfortable across all aspects of SEO delivery and strategy – from Technical SEO through to Content (keyword research, content strategy, competitor analysis, AI Search).

Working knowledge of Digital PR and the impact of backlinks on organic search performance.

Able to report on AI Search and confident in managing AI Search conversations with clients.

Comfortable communicating directly with clients. The Hallam team will always be on calls alongside you – you won’t be left to your own devices.

Strong time management and able to self‑manage across multiple workstreams.

Tools
Hands‑on experience with: Screaming Frog, Sitebulb, Ahrefs, SparkToro, KeywordTool.io, GA4, Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools, and Looker Studio (Data Studio).

How we work together

Fully remote. UK time zone strongly preferred.

Day‑to‑day communication over Slack and email – you’ll need access to both.

We’ll provide templates for deliverables so work stays consistent with Hallam’s branding.

The Hallam team will always be there to support client calls and conversations.

Commitment and rate
Our preference is 2–3 days per week on an ongoing basis. If you aren’t able to commit to at least 2 days per week, please still get in touch and include your proposed day rate for this level of work so we can consider options.

EEO statement
We highly encourage applicants from under‑represented ethnic groups and LGBTQ communities. Throughout the recruitment process, we will strive to make interviews as diverse and gender‑balanced as possible for impartiality. As long as you’re qualified, you’ll receive equal consideration for employment regardless of race, religion, colour, gender or disability.

Please note: this role is for freelancers and agencies only. We’re not working with recruiters for this opportunity.
