Seer is a remote-first agency and a Certified B-Corp, with team members across the country. If an office environment is more your style, this position can also sit in our HQ office in Philadelphia. We can only consider candidates based in the US who can work continental US-based hours.
The Role:Most agencies ask their BDMs to learn digital marketing on the job. We're trying something different.
We're looking for someone who has spent years doing the work, in SEO, paid media, or both, and is ready to bring that expertise to the sales side. You don't need a polished sales pedigree. You need to know what a technical SEO audit actually means, why a client's paid search ROAS story doesn't add up, and how to ask the questions that get to the real problem. We'll teach you the rest.
This is a full-cycle business development role on a small, high-performing team that closes $110K+ annual engagements with mid-market and enterprise clients across a wide range of industries. Our inbound volume is strong, our SEO works, and we need someone who can walk into a discovery call and immediately speak the language of the people on the other side of it.

You solve strategic problems that are connected to driving revenue.
You’ll collaboratively create and present comprehensive SEO, PPC, and Analytics strategies to prospective clients including their C-level executive team.

Essential Skills
You're no newbie. You've spent years doing the work -- in SEO, paid media, or both -- and you're ready to bring that expertise to the business development side. You don't need a decade of quota-carrying history, but you need to know what a technical audit actually means, why a client's organic traffic story doesn't add up, and how to ask the questions that get to the real problem. We'll teach you the rest.
You get shit done. You've been hands-on keyboard long enough to know what good looks like -- and what's broken. When a prospect says their SEO isn't working, you're already three questions deep before they finish the sentence. You don't need someone to hand you a playbook. You bring one.
You read between the lines. You've sat on enough strategy calls to know that what a client asks for and what they actually need are rarely the same thing. You get to the heart of the real business challenge, and you know how to recommend the right solution -- even when it's not the one they came in asking about.
When it comes to getting everyone aligned and prepped, it's you. You've worked with enough cross-functional teams to know how to bring the right people into a room at the right time. Your ability to connect with practitioners, directors, and decision-makers in the same conversation -- and have all of them leave feeling understood -- is what makes you dangerous in a pitch.
C-level execs don't make you sweat. You've presented strategy to senior stakeholders before. Maybe not in a quota-carrying sales context, but you've defended a recommendation, won buy-in, and handled pushback from people who had a lot riding on the decision. You know how to hold the room.
SEMrush, Screaming Frog, GA4, Ahrefs -- you're not learning these here. They're already in your toolkit. You know how to pull a quick audit, spot the gaps fast, and walk someone through what you're seeing without losing them along the way.
You have a way with words and you're as diplomatic as they come. You can tell a prospect that their current strategy isn't working -- and have them thank you for it. You know how to be honest, helpful, and human at the same time, even when the answer isn't what they were hoping to hear.
You want to win and you're open to trying something new. You've been diving into AI because you're genuinely curious about where it's going -- not because someone put it on a performance review. You're already thinking about how it changes the work and the value you can bring to clients.
You're an expectation setter. Internally and externally, there are few surprises with you. You document what you hear, you communicate clearly through the process, and you don't let things fall through the cracks -- even when you're managing multiple deals at different stages.
You're hungry to build the business development muscle. You may not have carried a quota for years, but you've brought in work, won pitches, or grown client relationships in ways that count. You're looking for a place that will invest in your growth on the sales side while letting your expertise do the heavy lifting from day one.
This might not be the right role for you if
Time-management, context-switching, and juggling multiple projects is quite challenging
You do not want continued-learning and innovation to be an expectation
Change management is difficult and you struggle with adapting to new tools and processes
Integrating AI and automations into your day to day isn't a priority for you currently

Bonus for high performance available
Evaluation of comp at least once a year
