Looking for a role where you'll actually use AI to make better content—not just talk about it?
We're working with a growing ecommerce business that's investing in the future of organic growth. As they continue to expand across multiple product categories and international markets, they're looking for a Content Executive (AI & SEO) to help shape how customers discover their products online.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a passion for content, SEO and digital marketing who wants to build expertise in one of the fastest-evolving areas of the industry. Whether you're already experimenting with AI tools or looking to take your knowledge to the next level, you'll be joining a business that actively encourages innovation and continuous learning.
If you're naturally curious, commercially minded and enjoy combining creativity with data, we'd love to hear from you.
The Opportunity
- Content is changing.
- Search is changing.
- And businesses that embrace AI are gaining a real competitive advantage.
- In this role, you'll help create engaging, search-friendly content that reaches customers wherever they're searching—whether that's Google, AI-powered search platforms or the next generation of conversational search experiences.
- Working as part of a collaborative ecommerce and marketing team, you'll use a combination of SEO expertise, AI tools and content best practice to improve visibility, increase organic traffic and support online sales.
- You'll also have the opportunity to explore new technologies, automate repetitive processes and help introduce smarter ways of working across the wider marketing function.
- No two days will be the same, and your ideas will genuinely help shape the future direction of content within the business.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll be involved in a wide variety of projects, including:
- Creating engaging, optimised content across digital channels
- Supporting SEO initiatives to improve rankings and organic visibility
- Researching keywords, search trends and customer intent
- Using AI tools to streamline content production and improve efficiency
- Identifying opportunities to automate content workflows
- Monitoring website performance and recommending improvements
- Supporting content optimisation across product, category and landing pages
- Keeping up to date with developments in AI, SEO and digital marketing
- Analysing competitor activity and identifying opportunities for growth
- Working closely with colleagues across ecommerce, marketing and digital teams
This is a role for someone who enjoys learning, testing ideas and finding smarter ways to achieve great results.
What We're Looking For
You'll already have experience within a content, SEO or digital marketing role and enjoy creating content that performs.
We're looking for someone who combines strong written communication skills with analytical thinking and a genuine interest in how technology is changing digital marketing.
You'll ideally have experience with:
- SEO and organic search best practices
- Content creation within an ecommerce or digital environment
- Google Analytics and Google Search Console
- Keyword research and content optimisation
- AI tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Perplexity
- Using AI to improve content creation or marketing workflows
- SEO platforms such as SEMrush or similar
Any exposure to content automation, APIs, Python, SQL, prompt engineering or workflow tools such as Make, Zapier, n8n or LangChain would be advantageous, but these aren't essential. What's more important is your enthusiasm for learning and experimenting with new technologies.
Why Join?
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a successful ecommerce business that's embracing innovation and investing in the future of digital marketing.
Rather than simply maintaining existing content, you'll have the chance to influence new ideas, test emerging technologies and develop highly sought-after AI and SEO skills that will continue to grow in demand over the coming years.
You'll work alongside experienced digital professionals in a collaborative environment where curiosity, creativity and continuous improvement are genuinely encouraged.
What's On Offer?
- Salary up to £32,000
