Campaign Delivery Manager (SEO Specialist)
Ref: CDM/024
An ideal position for a cool, calm and collected individual who thrives on being at the centre of a fast moving and varied business.
The role: Managing a portfolio of new and existing search engine marketing campaigns that are based on annual contracts and ensuring that they are delivered to a very high standard, this is a varied, absorbing and rewarding position. Essentially, you would be managing the technicians making the actual optimisation changes, but you’ll also be liaising with Campaign Account Managers and occasionally direct with clients.
About you: You’ll be strong in project management and be adept at juggling a large number of tasks at once. Your communications skills will be excellent, both in a client-facing capacity and in written English. You’ll have a firm technical understanding of the Internet, its various technologies and especially HTML. Experience of search engine optimisation would be a definite plus.
This position also includes the following core responsibilities:
- Manage organic optimisation projects from strategy through implementation with no hand-holding.
- Coordinate all campaign activities relating to SEO with our technical team including SEO, Off-Page Optimisers, and Web Developers
- Analyze customer Web sites and provide well-defined strategies for search engine improvement.
- Leverage skills in search engine writing to improve effectiveness of site content.
- Monitor search engine results, analyze key Web site metrics, and provide recommendations and strategies for continued improvement.
- Provide guidance and thought leadership to a growing team of passionate search engine marketers.
- Monitor algorithmic changes in the search engines to determine when and how to adapt our proven delivery methodology.
- Manage day-to-day client relationships through face-to-face meetings, frequent conference calls, and presentations.
- Exceed client expectations and performance goals on a daily basis.
Additional Required Experience:
- Must have proven experience delivering results through ethical search engine optimisation techniques
- Must have excellent attention to detail and the ability to effectively multi-task in a deadline driven environment

Campaign Manager (Pay Per Click Listings)
Ref: CM/022
We’re looking for a bright, results driven individual to plan, initiate and maintain Pay Per Click campaigns on behalf of our clients.
The role: Naturally you’ll be a dab hand at setting campaigns up, but you’ll regard an important part of your job function in being able to quickly analyse and act in improving campaign performance as necessary. You’ll be passionate about PPC advertising and be thoroughly versed in the paid listings process and its potential for delivering return on investment to Vertical Leap clients. In particular you’ll know all about the extra performance that is possible through the imaginative use of keywords, the bidding process and the various attributes of the leading search engines.
About you: Able and willing to work on your own initiative as well as part of our overall team in concerted marketing initiatives, you’ll be cool, calm and be able to schedule your work load across the portfolio of clients you will be handling.
Please reply in confidence to Matt Hopkins at mhopkins@vertical-leap.co.uk.
Campaign Account Managers (London, Glasgow)
Ref: CAM/023
Here’s an excellent opportunity to put your sales skills to use in selling Vertical Leap’s Managed Search Engine Marketing service in your patch.
The role: With thousands of businesses around you, virtually all with websites crying out for Managed Search Engine Marketing, we need bright, hungry go-getters to bring these new clients into the Vertical Leap fold! Our Campaign Account Managers are totally focused on front-end sales: once a sales prospect has converted, that client is handled by other departments within the business leaving you free to carry on selling! With the full back-up of Vertical Leap including advice, publicity material and motivated leads generated via on-going marketing activity, you’ll contact and meet suitable local businesses and convert these sales prospects into clients. Vertical Leap is a solid sales proposition and we are told time and time again that we have the strongest and most professional story to tell. We offer a fixed salary plus ongoing commissions and some of our Campaign Managers are enjoying the highest earnings of their careers to date and with all the business out there, the sky really is the limit.
About you: Obviously you’ll have a sales background, though it doesn’t necessarily have to have been with an Internet based company like Vertical Leap. You’ll be organised and able to work on your own initiative, though with the backing of the Vertical Leap team.
Please reply in confidence to Matt Hopkins at mhopkins@vertical-leap.co.uk.
