Here, you have room to experiment, keep what works, and learn quickly from what doesn’t. Ready to share our ambition and make an impact? Then, this role may be for you. About Semrush Technical Services Semrush Technical Services is a team of technical experts and consultants who partner with enterprise customers to accelerate API adoption and drive measurable value from the Semrush platform. We work alongside sophisticated engineering and product organizations to design integration approaches, unlock API capabilities, and build the technical foundations that enable long-term customer growth.This team sits within Semrush's CSS organization and works in direct partnership with Customer Success, Sales, and Product. Our job is to make sure enterprise customers don't just purchase Semrush's APIs, they use them, scale them, and grow with them. Role Overview The Technical Services Consultant is Semrush's technical expert in the post-sale motion for API customers. This is a consultative, high-impact role accountable for two outcomes: getting customers to production fast, and ensuring they actively consume what they've purchased. You sit at the intersection of engineering and business, embedded with customer development teams while engaging at the strategic level with product and technology leaders. You work in direct partnership with the Customer Success Manager and Account Executive on named enterprise accounts. The CSM owns the relationship and success planning; you own the technical strategy and API consumption. This is a paid Services role. You are not a support function. You are a proactive technical partner who drives outcomes. Drive fast, high-quality implementation: Own the technical workstream for API customers from contract close through go-live. Lead architecture reviews, guide the customer's engineering team through integration design, and ensure setup is done right the first time, aligned to their goals and Semrush best practices. Own API consumption post-onboarding: Monitor API usage against purchased volume, identify consumption gaps before they become churn signals, and build a concrete plan to close them. Push customers to get full value from what they've purchased by surfacing under-utilised capabilities and new use cases. Be the technical thought partner: Engage at the strategic level with customer CTOs, engineering leads, and product teams; not just answering questions, but proactively shaping how they build. Run technical workshops, architecture walkthroughs, and developer enablement sessions throughout the engagement. Remove blockers and govern delivery: Identify technical, organizational, and resource blockers early and resolve them proactively. Define clear implementation milestones, hold customers accountable to timelines, and escalate with context and a recommended path forward when needed. Partner with the CSM on account strategy: Work hand-in-hand with the Customer Success Manager to align technical expansion plays with broader success planning, renewal motions, and executive stakeholder engagement. You own the technical layer; the CSM owns the relationship. Scale the practice: Build repeatable assets, implementation playbooks, reference architectures, onboarding templates, that make the next engagement faster and better. Surface integration blockers and adoption friction back to Product and Engineering as the voice of the technical customer. Move together. Raise the bar. Learn fast—grow faster. That’s the default. And here’s what else is needed to succeed in this role: 5–8+ years in a technical, customer-facing role; Solutions Engineering, Technical Account Management, Implementation Engineering, or equivalent Demonstrable experience working directly with engineering and development teams as a trusted technical advisor, not just a support contact Strong working knowledge of REST APIs, authentication patterns (OAuth, API keys, JWT), webhooks, and integration architecture; you can review an integration design and immediately identify what's wrong Comfortable reading and discussing code (JavaScript, Python, or similar) and engaging at technical depth with developers without needing to write production code yourself Track record of owning measurable outcomes: time-to-live, API adoption rates, consumption metrics, NRR contributions Equally strong in a technical architecture review and an executive business review; you shift the conversation without losing the thread Commercially aware: you understand how your work connects to retention, expansion, and Services revenue Operates with urgency and ownership; you identify the problem and move without waiting to be asked Not Required, But a Plus Experience at an API-first or platform company Familiarity with enterprise integration patterns, middleware, or iPaaS platforms Background in a paid Professional or Technical Services function Experience building implementation playbooks or technical enablement programs from scratch Exposure to digital marketing, MarTech, or SEO/SEM platforms • Unlimited PTO, • Hobby & team building budget allowance, • Employee Support Program, • Loss of family member financial aid, • Employee Resource Groups Semrush is the leading brand visibility platform, empowering marketers to command their online presence and create measurable impact.

Accounts and Audit Manager \n Manchester | Hybrid | Competitive Salary + Clear Senior Leadership Progression \n I'm currently working with an established North West accountancy practice that is looking to appoint an Accounts and Audit Manager who wants to take their career in a slightly different direction. \n This role could be particularly well suited to an ACA or ACCA qualified accountant who enjoys audit, but doesn't necessarily want their career to remain heavily audit-focused. \n The firm is looking for someone who wants to take ownership of a portfolio of clients, become more involved in accounts and client advisory work, and build relationships that go beyond the year-end audit. \n Why this role is interesting \n You'll still have responsibility for running audits from planning through to completion and sign-off, but the wider role is much more client-focused. \n You'll be the day-to-day contact for a portfolio of owner-managed businesses, groups and not-for-profit organisations, dealing with everything from statutory accounts and management accounts through to VAT, corporation tax and general advisory queries. \n There is also exposure to more specialist work, including M&A, complex tax and forensic assignments, giving you the opportunity to broaden your experience rather than becoming pigeonholed into audit. \n Most importantly, there is a clear route to Senior Manager and ultimately the Senior Leadership Team. The practice has a strong track record of promoting internally, so this is a role with genuine long-term progression attached to it. \n The role \n You'll be responsible for: \n\n • Managing audits from planning and risk assessment through to completion\n, • Managing your own portfolio and becoming a trusted day-to-day client contact\n, • Preparing and reviewing statutory accounts under FRS 102 and FRS 105\n, • Working on group accounts and consolidations where required\n, • Preparing and reviewing corporation tax computations and returns\n, • Supporting clients with management accounts, VAT and wider advisory queries\n, • Liaising with HMRC, solicitors, banks and other professional advisers\n, • Reviewing junior team members' work and supporting their development\n, • Helping with workflow planning, deadlines and improving internal processes\n, • Working closely with the Audit Director while developing greater autonomy across your portfolio\n\n What they're looking for \n You'll need to be ACA or ACCA qualified, with solid UK practice experience covering both audit and accounts. \n The key thing is personality and career direction. They're looking for someone who enjoys dealing with clients, wants greater commercial exposure and is interested in developing beyond a traditional audit role. \n You'll ideally have: \n\n • Strong audit and accounts experience within practice\n, • Experience managing your own client portfolio\n, • Previous experience reviewing or supervising junior staff\n, • Good knowledge of statutory accounts and corporation tax\n, • Confidence using cloud accounting software, particularly Xero\n, • Strong communication skills and a genuine interest in client relationships\n, • CCH experience would be useful, but isn't essential\n, • A full UK driving licence\n\n The package \n\n • Competitive salary, dependent on experience and qualification\n, • Hybrid working\n, • Clear progression to Senior Manager\n, • Genuine opportunity to join the Senior Leadership Team\n, • Exposure to M&A, complex tax and forensic assignments\n, • Modern Salford offices with excellent tram and rail connections\n, • A supportive environment where internal progression is actively encouraged\n\n If you're an experienced audit professional who enjoys the technical side but would rather spend more of your career working with clients, advising businesses and developing your accounts experience, this is worth a conversation. \n It's a particularly good opportunity for someone who wants to step away from a purely audit-led career without stepping backwards, while having a clearly defined route into senior leadership. \n Interested? Get in touch for a confidential conversation.
