Description

Looking for Philippines-based candidates Job Role: SEO Specialist Compensation range: $1,400 AUD - $2,000 AUD / Monthly Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement Work Schedule: This role is expected to require roughly 20 hours per week. As a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your schedule, but availability for occasional collaboration during AU business hours is preferred. Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. You will be hired directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote, so you'll be able to work from home. Who The Client Is: What started as a hands-on trade career turned into a mission to change how people feel about the work they do every day. Built from real experience on job sites, not boardrooms, our brand was created by someone who understood firsthand the gap between functionality and identity in workwear. Early on, it became clear that most gear focused purely on durability, often overlooking fit, comfort, and personal expression. That realization sparked the idea: workwear should perform under pressure and reflect the pride of the people wearing it.
