Role: Senior Technical SEO Specialist (Ecommerce, Shopify, Remote)

Full-Time – £35,000-£50,000 (UK Based)

???? Who We Are

We are Searchflex, a high-performance ecommerce search agency. We don’t do generic SEO. We build full ecom search systems (CheckoutOS) for D2C brands doing £50k–£10M/month, focused on profit, clarity, and control. We’re expanding – and we’re hiring someone smart, reliable, and technical to take ownership of Technical SEO execution.

???? Role Overview

You’ll work closely with the director to help implement our SEO audits and performance roadmap across multiple WordPress and Shopify-based ecommerce brands. You’ll follow the strategy we co-develop – and own the execution across tech SEO, structured data, site speed, and CRO fixes. This is not a content writing or basic blog SEO job.
