SEO Team Lead
About the Role
Trionix Global is a full-service digital marketing and technology agency serving clients across healthcare, education, real estate, e-commerce, and B2B. We're hiring an SEO Team Lead who can take ownership of SEO strategy across multiple client accounts, lead a team, and stay ahead of where search is heading — from traditional SEO to AI Search, AEO, and GEO.

- Manage local SEO — Google Business Profile optimization, citations, local ranking factors
- Drive content SEO — keyword research, content gap analysis, content strategy aligned with search intent
- Conduct competitor, keyword, technical, and SERP analysis
