## About this task

This machinery maker supplying aerospace (5,000+ employees) is looking for a manager SEO Specialist for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Business profiles, citations and local pages.

The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It manufactures physical products, and the office team works to month-end and plant schedules.

The work is fully remote. Any location in Canada works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (ET).

## What you deliver

- Set up and optimise Google Business Profiles for six locations and build local landing pages.

- A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

- The finished deliverable in the agreed file format, with sources and assumptions listed

- A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope

## How the work runs

- Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files

- Days 2 to 5: the work, with questions answered the same day

- Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

**Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.

## Tools

Google Business Profile BrightLocal

## Who fits

- 7-12 years of hands-on work as an SEO Specialist, or the equivalent mix of roles

- Comfortable working in Google Business Profile and BrightLocal

- Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate

### Nice to have

- Comfortable explaining numbers or decisions to a non-specialist reader

- Used to short written handovers

## Not included

- Travel or work at a fixed location

- Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so

- Work outside the scope written in the brief; extra items are quoted separately

## How you get paid

- The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice.

- Deftridge pays you in CAD after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable. The payment date is written in your task agreement.

- You work as an independent contractor: you report your own income, and your recruiter sends the statements your accountant needs.

- You never chase the company. Questions about money go to Deftridge.

## What happens after you say you're interested

1. **Within one working day** A recruiter writes to you to confirm your hours and the rate you want.

1. **You agree the rate** You and the recruiter fix an exact rate inside the company's range. You decide whether to go ahead.

1. **With your written OK** The company sees the anonymous profile below. Most companies answer within three working days.

1. **Start** You sign the task agreement and the company's confidentiality terms through Deftridge, and begin on the date above.
