Senior GMB Strategist & Local Presence Director

AGENCIES CAN APPLY TOO . This is a rare, high-caliber opportunity for a true local SEO authority. We manage a growing portfolio of business locations and need someone who can own the entire Google Business Profile ecosystem — strategically, technically, and operationally. This is a full-time role built for someone who has spent 10 to 15+ years in the trenches of local SEO and GBP management and has the results to show for it. Only apply if you are genuinely at the top of your field.

Tasks

• Manage, optimize, and grow multiple GBP locations end-to-end — categories, attributes, photos, posts, Q&A, and service areas
• Develop and execute local SEO strategies to achieve and maintain top local pack rankings across all locations
• Conduct in-depth GBP audits and implement structured improvement plans for underperforming listings
• Handle suspended or penalized listings — reinstatement requests, appeals, and compliance
• Monitor review activity, flag issues, and coordinate reputation response strategies
• Track local ranking data, traffic, and GBP insights with clear, actionable reporting
• Stay current with Google algorithm updates and proactively adapt strategies

Requirements

• 10–15+ years of dedicated local SEO and Google Business Profile management experience
• Proven experience managing 50+ GBP locations simultaneously across multiple industries
• Expert-level knowledge of local ranking factors — NAP, citations, local schema, review signals, proximity, and category optimization
• Hands-on experience with tools like BrightLocal, Whitespark, GBP dashboard, Semrush Local, or equivalent
• Strong analytical mindset with ability to translate data into clear strategies
• Excellent written communication for reporting, review responses, and internal documentation
• Backgrounds from agencies, freelance, or in-house teams are equally welcome — results matter most
