About the Role

We’re entering a once-in-a-company moment: a major step-change in our D2C marketing investment, a full rebrand of the company and product under the Zable brand, and a marketing function being built out at pace under a newly-appointed CMO. This is one of the most exciting marketing builds in UK fintech right now, with the financial strength, customer base, and product depth to back it up.We’re building out our SEO function for the first time and need a strong technical operator to make our sites the fastest, cleanest and most crawlable in UK fintech. We’re looking for a Senior Technical SEO to own technical SEO across Zable.

Reporting to a Head of SEO we’re hiring in parallel, you’ll partner with engineering and product to ship the work that unlocks compounding organic growth, site architecture, performance, schema, indexation and AI search readiness.This role goes beyond traditional technical SEO. Some of our biggest organic opportunities will come from building SEO-led product surfaces, calculators, comparison tools, interactive guides, and more ambitious full-stack products designed to capture high-volume search demand. You'll scope, ship and continuously improve those builds, bringing the SEO lens to every launch and helping us decide where the biggest organic bets are worth a product investment, not just a content one.

In order to do this you will have strong technical and AI capabilities, enabling you to take a product from plan to brief to design and from build to launch with a high level of autonomy.
