About Us

Future Buildings and Toro Steel Buildings are two distinct brands under the same ownership, each with its own website, audience, and market positioning. Together, we design, manufacture, and deliver prefabricated steel buildings, from agricultural Quonsets and metal garages to large commercial and industrial structures, serving customers across the U.S., Canada, and beyond for over 40 years.

This role spans both brands. You'll be managing and growing two separate WordPress sites simultaneously, maintaining consistent SEO quality and strategic coherence across both while respecting the distinct voice and positioning of each.

The Opportunity

We're looking for an experienced SEO specialist to take ownership of organic search across both of our brands. Your foundation will be the fundamentals: technical health, on-page optimization, content strategy, authority building, and keeping pace with Google's evolving algorithm.

We're also in the midst of migrating both sites to a heavily optimized WordPress setup. There's an immediate hands-on project to hit the ground running with, requiring someone who knows how to execute a clean migration without losing rankings or traffic.

Beyond the core role, we're actively looking to grow our presence in AI-driven search surfaces, answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. This is a newer area for us, and we want someone who's curious about it, has some familiarity with what it takes to show up there, and is eager to build that out as part of their mandate.
