Location: Remote
Reports to: Operations Manager
Company: BodyShop Marketing – A niche digital agency for auto body & collision repair shops
🚗 About BodyShop Marketing
We’re a fast-growing digital marketing agency built specifically for independent auto body shops. Our founder comes straight from the collision repair industry — and our mission is to help hardworking shop owners beat the big chains, stay booked out, and thrive.
We specialize in SEO, websites, Google Ads, social media, geofencing, and AI-powered content marketing. Our culture is built on integrity, grit, service, and partnership — and we’re looking for someone who shares those values.
🧠 About This Role
We’re looking for a senior-level SEO strategist who can take full ownership of the technical and local SEO strategy for our clients — with a strong focus on Google Business Profile optimization, AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), and content that ranks.
You’ll work behind the scenes (not client-facing), partnering directly with our Operations Manager to deliver real results: higher local rankings, better map visibility, and content that drives traffic. If you live and breathe local SEO, love diving into audits, and can turn AI-generated drafts into polished, optimized content — this role is for you.

* Implement and manage schema markup and AEO best practices for AI search visibility
Use Search Atlas to manage technical performance and local rankings
* Review, edit, format, and optimize AI-generated content (blogs, press releases, GBP content)
* Upload content to WordPress, Google Business Profiles, and Signal Genesys
* Ensure on-page SEO best practices using tools like Search Atlas.
* Conduct competitor research and link building strategies as needed
* Track performance using Google Analytics and Google Search Console
* Communicate recommendations to internal team (not client-facing)
🧩 You’ll Excel in This Role If You Have…
* 5+ years of SEO experience with a strong focus on local and technical SEO
* Deep understanding of Google Business Profiles, ranking factors, and local pack performance
* Familiarity with schema markup, featured snippets, and AI search behavior
* Excelent command of English writing/editing for web content
Experience using or willingness to learn:
