We are looking for a hands-on specialist to grow profitable online sales and improve the performance of our Australian and New Zealand WooCommerce websites. You will own search marketing, measurement and proactive website health, with the opportunity to establish and grow our NZ SEO programme. You will work alongside our existing marketing coordinator and our developer who handles complex technical fixes, integrations and development. This is a focused technical marketing role, not a general marketing or full-stack developer position.

This is a permanent part time role 3 days per week with flexible days/hours. You will be working from our Keysborough office. We enjoy working together in the same space but also value flexibility and finding the right brain for the job above all else. If you would like to work in a hybrid model, please let us know.

This role has flexible hours and could suit someone looking for school hours.
