• Optimise website copy and blog content for SEO, search intent and AI-generated results.
• Conduct keyword, topic and content research to support content planning.
• Review and improve meta descriptions, headings, internal links and on-page content.
• Monitor content performance using analytics and SEO tools, using insight to improve content quality and visibility.
• Support GEO activity by helping track how our brands, courses and qualification routes appear across AI-powered search platforms.
• Adapt tone and style for different audiences, including career changers, trade learners, fitness professionals, employers and partners.
• Work with subject matter experts to turn technical information into clear, useful and accessible content.
• Support PR, student stories, internal updates and wider marketing communications where required.
• Work with the marketing and web teams to ensure content is accurate, on-brand, accessible and conversion-focused.

What we’re looking for

• Experience in a content, copywriting, SEO or digital marketing role.
• Strong writing skills, with the ability to write for different audiences and channels.
• Working knowledge of SEO best practice, including search intent, metadata, internal linking and content quality.
• Experience using tools such as Google Analytics, Google Search Console, Ahrefs, SEMrush, Similarweb or similar.
• Ability to use data to improve content and make practical recommendations.
• An understanding of GEO, AEO or AI-powered search would be beneficial.
• Comfortable using AI tools responsibly as part of a content workflow.
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to producing accurate, high-quality work.
• Able to manage multiple briefs and deadlines in a fast-moving marketing environment.
• Confident working independently and collaboratively across a wider group structure.

What we offer

• Salary of £30,000 to £38,000 per annum.
• Hybrid working based in London.
• Full-time, permanent role.
• Opportunity to work across a growing group of education and training brands.
• A varied role covering content writing, SEO, GEO and digital performance.
• A supportive marketing environment where practical ideas and continuous improvement are valued.
