SEO Strategist

Overview

Corporate Tools is hiring an SEO Strategist.As an SEO Strategist, your mission is to help our websites rise above the noise and earn real visibility. You'll build data-driven strategies that align with our business goals and connect with real users. That means deep technical audits, identifying content gaps, collaborating with writers, and using data to guide every decision.


You'll work alongside developers, designers, and content creators who are eager to bring your strategies to life. One day, you might be mapping out a new site structure.

We see SEO as more than just keywords; it's about user experience, business impact, and staying curious.


Our ideal candidate has a proven track record of driving organic growth through both technical and content-driven strategies. You're genuinely curious about how people search, click, and convert online. You know how to diagnose traffic drops, analyze what's working (or not), and clearly explain your thinking to technical and non-technical teammates. You've got the confidence to lead, the humility to listen, and the mindset to test and adapt.


You will be a traditional company employee. This is a full time 40 hour M-F position with company benefits. This is a remote position. Our main office is in Spokane WA, and we have satellite offices in Austin TX and Salt Lake City UT.
