Local SEO Strategist

You know why a business ranks in the map pack, and you're the person clients actually look forward to hearing from. If that's you, this role was written for you.
Rank On Maps is a US-based local SEO company. We get local service businesses, roofers, HVAC companies, plumbers and the like, ranking at the top of Google Maps and local search so the phone rings with real jobs. Not impressions, not "visibility," jobs.
We're growing, and we're adding to the team because of it. We need a Local SEO Strategist who'll own a book of clients end to end: the strategy, the results and the relationship.
This is a remote role for someone based in Latin America, working US business hours with US clients.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Be the main point of contact for your clients. They'll know your name, and they'll know you're the one running their account.
• Build and own the local SEO strategy for each client, then drive it through with our specialists in content, development, Google Business Profile and CRM/automation.
• Run client calls, send updates before anyone asks, and explain what we did, why we did it and what it moved.
• Track results by what the client can actually trace: calls, form fills and booked jobs. Verify the numbers across sources before they reach the client.
• Say the hard thing early. If a month is flat, the client hears it from you first, with a plan attached.
• Make clean handoffs to the team, keep everyone in the loop and raise the bar for how we work.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• Real, hands-on local SEO experience. You've ranked local businesses yourself, and you can walk us through exactly what you did.
• Depth across the craft: Google Business Profile, Maps and local pack ranking factors, geo-grid rank tracking, local landing pages and site structure, reviews, citations and NAP consistency, local links, Search Console and GA4, call tracking and lead attribution.
• A working view on how AI search (AI Overviews, ChatGPT and the rest) is changing how people find local businesses, and what to do about it.
• Fluent, natural spoken English. Warm, upbeat and easy to talk to. Our clients are business owners who run crews all day. They should come off a call with you in a better mood than they went in.
• You build rapport fast with people you've just met, on camera and on the phone, and you bring energy to the team as well as to clients.
• Strong written communication. You can take a technical change and explain it to a busy business owner in two sentences.
• Ownership. You care about the outcome, not the task list, and you don't wait to be told.
HOW WE WORK
Results over activity. We don't measure ourselves by tasks completed. We measure by leads and calls a client can trace back to the work.
Honest numbers. Reporting is verified across sources before a client sees it. A bad month gets reported as a bad month, along with what we're doing about it.
Communicate before they have to ask. Clients shouldn't be chasing us for updates. If something changed, moved or broke, they hear it from us first.
Own the outcome. Every client has one person accountable for their results. On your book, that's you.
Know the craft. We're specialists. Our people understand why something ranks, not just that it does.
Be a good teammate. Clear handoffs, no surprises, and you leave the team better than you found it.
Worth more than they pay. Every client should feel they're getting more than they pay for. That's the standard, and it's the whole reason clients stay.
COMPENSATION
• On-target earnings of $3,000 to $6,000 USD a month, rising as your book of clients grows.
• Pay is tied to the clients you look after. What you earn per client doubles once that client has been with us past four months.
• That's deliberate. You're rewarded for clients who stay because they're getting results, not for onboarding them and moving on. Your incentives and the client's are the same thing.
HOW TO APPLY
