JUNIOR SEARCH SPECIALIST (PART-TIME)

Job Description Webfor is seeking a part-time Junior Search Specialist to join our growth marketing team. This is a technical role focused on the “how” and “why” of search engines. We’re a fun team of creative developers, designers, and marketing professionals. We thrive on seeing our clients succeed and team members succeed. If you are fascinated by how AI and search engines work, love uncovering patterns in data, and want to master the technical side of digital marketing, we want to talk to you. About You You’re new to the world of digital marketing and have an interest in keyword research, on-page optimization, technical SEO, local optimization, and more. You’re looking to collaborate and learn marketing tactics to be implemented across all our accounts. This is a junior position, so we know you’ll be spending the first 90 days learning, asking questions, and working towards fulfilling client work.

• Data-First Mindset: You enjoy spreadsheets and dashboards. You like seeing the direct impact of a bid adjustment or a metadata tweak.
• The Logic of Search: You are curious about why certain sites rank and others don’t. You’re interested in the “back-end” levers of SEO and PPC.
• Meticulous & Process-Oriented: You have a high “attention to detail” score. You’d rather follow a 10-step technical checklist to perfection than wing it.
• Junior Growth Path: This is a junior role. You don’t need years of experience, but you do need an appetite for learning technical frameworks and industry-standard tools.

You’re a go-getter, always learning and always growing. No task is too big or complex. You’re organized and tackle tasks in a meticulous way. You have a deep appreciation for process and strategic thinking. The Role Over time, your goal is to work with the team and clients to achieve defined goals that will help businesses grow, improve conversions and rankings, and enhance their overall online marketing success. A key component of this is delivering a high level of service where the client feels cared for and important, and appreciates the value that Webfor offers. COMPENSATION: $15 to $18 per hour. EXPECTED START DATE: No later than May 1st. Here is a breakdown of your core Marketing Specialist responsibilities:

• Clearly understand client goals and set a path to reach them. Execute that strategy accordingly.
• Publish content to client websites with a keen focus on quality of work, ensuring that text is formatted properly and that resources cited in the material are reputable and trusted.
• Perform technical audits, website analysis, optimize on-page elements (headers, meta tags, schema), and manage local search presence.
• Assist in managing Google Ads and Meta Ads. This includes monitoring budgets, campaign optimization, and ad copy updates.
• Hold yourself to a high standard of performance by doing what you say you’re going to do.
• Reduce or eliminate rework by you and/or the team. Rework is defined as having to edit something you’ve already completed 1-2+ times. This hurts your productivity and overall efficiency.
• Find new ways to grow a client’s brand in search engines.
• Never compromise an account by taking risks with a client’s online presence without consulting your project team.
• Look for opportunities to improve processes and deliverables for clients. The better we are at delivering great work, the more clients that will want to work with us.

Preferred Qualifications

• A basic understanding of SEO terminology (Crawlability, Indexing, Backlinks).
• Familiarity with Google Ads or Google Analytics
• A logical, “puzzle-solving” approach to marketing.
