Frequently Asked
Questions Hiring Managers Ask
Are you open to full-time roles, or remote/contract only?
Yes to all three. My priority is a team where I can own organic growth end-to-end — that fits an in-house SEO & Organic Growth role, a remote full-time position, or a longer-term contract engagement.
Can you work different time zones or shifts?
Yes. I already deliver for international clients across the US, Australia, and other Western markets, and I'm fully flexible on shift timing — there's no time zone I can't work.
What's your notice period?
2 months. Reach out by email or phone — see the contact page — and I'll confirm exact availability against your timeline.
Do you have experience with Shopify and WordPress at scale?
Yes — a full Wix-to-Shopify migration for an Australian wine brand, ongoing WordPress management across a 30+ site US travel portfolio, and a WordPress information-architecture rebuild for a New Zealand e-commerce brand.
