Senior SEO & GEO Strategist
About Us
Verz Design Pte Ltd is a leading web design and digital marketing agency in Singapore, helping businesses grow through integrated digital strategies across SEO, Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO), Paid Media, Email Marketing, Content Marketing and Web Development.
As search continues to evolve beyond traditional search engines into AI-powered discovery and generative search, we are expanding our capabilities across both SEO and GEO. We are looking for an experienced Senior SEO & GEO Strategist to strengthen our SEO/GEO capabilities and support client campaigns across Singapore and regional markets.
Job Summary
As a Senior SEO & GEO Strategist, you will focus primarily on strategy, technical analysis, campaign optimisation, audits, quality assurance and SEO/GEO capability development. You will work closely with our SEO/GEO Specialists and Digital Marketing Account Managers to develop and improve strategies across traditional organic search and emerging AI search platforms.
This is a hands-on strategic role rather than a people-management position. You should be comfortable analysing complex websites, diagnosing campaign issues, identifying growth opportunities and translating findings into clear recommendations that the wider team can execute.
You will also contribute to the continued development of Verz's GEO capabilities, including AI visibility, prompt strategy, citation and source analysis, AI-oriented content optimisation and emerging AI search practices.
