The Management
Ryan McAuley
Head of Natural Search
Ryan brings several years of client-side search engine marketing experience to the team at Upthebeanstalk.
In his early years, when Upthebeanstalk was only a pipe-dream, Ryan was introduced to the new world of search engine marketing and was excited by the benefits and value this strategy brought to the marketing remit. He quickly rose in the SEO ranks of major media companies and leading job boards, all of whom still benefit from the robust, long-term strategies he introduced during his time in office.
Since then Ryan has held a position as Head of Search Marketing for a UK business within the e-commerce sector. He has the respect of the leading minds within the industry and is regularly requested for his thoughts on strategies that bring strong service value to search campaigning.
Ryan is a strong advocate of Research & Development, a fundamental aspect of our dynamic marketing service strategy ensuring that our customers benefit from the latest, cutting edge developments the world of search has to offer.
Ryan founded Upthebeanstalk Ltd in 2008 with the intention of raising the service-level bar within the search engine marketing industry.
