Areti Group – Carbon Positive Tech Recruitment | People & Planet Before Profit
This is a front-end–first leadership role.
You’ll lead a cross-functional product engineering team, with your primary focus on:
- 🌳 Usability, performance, and maintainability at scale
You’ll still collaborate closely with backend engineers, but your ownership sits firmly on the UI and client-side experience.
Teams may focus on:
- 🌳 New front-end modules and workflows
- 🌳 Performance optimisation and UX refinement
- 🌳 Design system evolution and component architecture
Focus areas rotate annually, offering long‑term growth and variety.

- 🌳 Own front‑end technical direction, architecture, and standards
- 🌳 Partner with Product and Design to shape feature scope and UX
- 🌳 Build, test, and ship high‑quality, user‑facing features
- 🌳 Break down complex UI challenges into clear, deliverable work
- 🌳 Influence backend API design to support excellent front‑end experiences
- 🌳 Stay hands‑on with code, especially while teams are scaling
- 🌳 Help interview and hire senior front‑end engineers
- 🌳 Champion accessibility, performance, and usability best practices
Tech Stack (Front-End Focus)
We’re looking for strong front‑end engineers who can lead technically.
- 🌳 SPA state management and component architecture
Supporting stack (you’ll collaborate closely, not own alone):
Experience with large, complex, data‑heavy interfaces is a major plus.
About You
Leadership titles aren’t required - front‑end leadership behaviours are.
You’ll be a great fit if you:
- 🌳 Are a senior front‑end or UI‑focused full‑stack engineer
- 🌳 Have led technical direction for SPAs or front‑end platforms
- 🌳 Enjoy mentoring engineers and raising the bar on UI quality
- 🌳 Care deeply about usability, clarity, and performance
- 🌳 Can challenge assumptions constructively and ask the “awkward” questions kindly
- 🌳 Want to build software that people genuinely enjoy using
What You’ll Get
- 🌳 £1,000+ annual learning & development budget
- 🌳 33 days holiday, rising to 40
- 🌳 4‑week paid sabbatical after 5 years
- 🌳 Innovation Weeks (twice per year)
- 🌳 20 hours paid volunteering time
- 🌳 Monthly team social time (in‑person & virtual)
- 🌳 A genuinely kind, ambitious, and collaborative engineering culture
- 🌳 Remote‑first across the UK
- 🌳 Optional collaboration days in the office
- 🌳 Flexible working hours (37.5‑hour week)
- 🌳 No mandated office days - trust and outcomes matter most
