Work that deserves your name on it

Clear Click is a senior-led agency built deliberately small. No junior layers learning on your clients, no account managers relaying messages, no pyramid. Just experienced people doing the work they are known for, with AI multiplying what they can do in a day.

Open role

Senior SEO Consultant

Remote-first, UKFull timeWorking directly with the directors

Our first specialist hire. You will own SEO delivery across our client portfolio, working directly with Nicolaas, and help define how the craft is practised at Clear Click. This is a role for someone who wants their name on the work: strategy, technical and content, with the client relationships that go with them, and our AI systems handling the repetitive layer so your hours go to judgement.

What you would own

Day-to-day SEO delivery across UK and international clients, measured in revenue rather than rankings.

Your own client relationships. You present your thinking and defend your numbers.

The playbook. How SEO is practised here will be substantially your design.

Who you are

Senior enough to run engagements with light oversight, across strategy, technical and content.

Commercially fluent. You trace recommendations to revenue, not activity.

Curious about AI as a multiplier of your craft rather than a threat to it.

We share the salary range openly in the first conversation, before you have invested anything more than a call.

Apply now

Send a note about what you are excellent at and one piece of work you are proud of. A real person reads every application, and we reply to all of them.

The deal, both ways

Every good working relationship is an honest exchange. Here is ours, written down.

What you get

Ownership of a craft, not a slice of a job. You lead your channel and clients know your name.

Direct client relationships from day one. The people you brief with are the people you answer to.

AI that multiplies you. We build systems that remove the repetitive third of the job so your judgement gets more hours.

Work from where you live. We operate across three time zones on purpose, built on trust, clear ownership and honest communication.

What we expect

Commercial judgement. Every recommendation traced to revenue, not activity.

Craft you keep sharpening. You are the person who owns how this discipline is done here.

Comfort in the room. You present your own work and defend your own numbers.

Honesty when the data disagrees with the plan. Especially then.

No pyramid. A network.

Most agencies are shaped like a triangle: seniors sell the work, juniors do it, and the gap between promise and delivery is where clients get disappointed. We are building the opposite shape, and we are early: today Clear Click is two directors in the work every day, with trusted freelance specialists alongside when a build calls for them. The next people in will not inherit a structure. They will help design one. We would rather turn work away than staff it with someone learning on a client's budget.

Directors in the work

Nicolaas and Alistair lead engagements personally. Reviews are conversations with the people doing the thinking, not status theatre.

Specialists, not generalists

Every channel here is owned outright by one person who lives that craft. Arrive as our first specialist and the way your discipline is practised at Clear Click will be substantially your design.

AI as a force multiplier

Our AI systems handle the repetitive layer of the job. Your hours go to judgement, strategy and clients, the parts worth being senior for.

How working here actually works

The texture of the job, written down, because it is the thing every candidate wants to know and almost no agency says.

Remote-first, genuinely

Work from where you live. We plan around agreed overlap for client conversations and trust you with the shape of your own day. The setup is deliberate, not an accommodation.

Your name on the work

You present your own thinking and defend your own numbers. Reviews are working conversations with the directors, because everyone here is in the work.

AI takes the repetitive third

Our systems handle the research and production layer that does not need judgement, so your hours go where seniority matters. See how the collaboration works.

Small by design

No handoffs, no internal politics, no waiting for sign-off from someone who has never met the client. The distance between your judgement and the client's result is zero.

The people you would build this with

Two directors, in the work every day. You would not be joining a department. You would be joining them.

Nicolaas Kerkmeester, Director and co-founder of Clear Click

Director and Co-founder

Organic search, HubSpot and the advisory work that connects them. The person your SEO thinking would sharpen against.

Alistair Mains, Director and co-founder of Clear Click
Alistair Mains
Director and Co-founder

Paid media, data, CRM and the AI systems behind the agency. The person who will ask what your work is worth in revenue.

Our first specialist role is taking shape

Roles here are built around people, not vacancies, and the first one is forming now: a senior SEO consultant to own client delivery day to day, working directly with Nicolaas, with real room to define how SEO is practised here. We share the salary range openly in the first conversation, before you have invested anything more than a call.

And if your craft is paid media, data, CRM or automation, we still want to hear from you, because roles two and three will be built the same way: around the right person. Tell us what you are excellent at and show us one piece of work you are proud of. A real person reads every note, and we reply to all of them.
