Profile
for the Web Developer

You're a technically capable developer who takes pride in building things properly. You understand WordPress architecture, Gutenberg's quirks, and how to bridge design and development cleanly. You'll collaborate closely with both design and development teams to deliver robust, responsive WordPress sites that are efficient, scalable, and visually precise.

Progression for the Web Developer

As a developer in this role you are not just building pages. You will be part of a busy specialist team who build high performing WordPress sites all day, every day. You will work alongside senior developers, technical leads and experienced designers who are happy to pair with you, review your code and explain the "why", not just the "what". The aim is simple: to help you grow into a confident mid weight developer, and build your skills exponentially.

What you can expect:

  • Structured progression path
    with clear expectations and regular reviews focused on your technical growth and portfolio.
  • Mentoring from industry experts
    including direct access to senior WordPress and Gutenberg developers for code reviews, pair programming and architecture discussions.
  • Hands on learning
    through real client projects, with access to courses, documentation and internal knowledge sharing sessions to support your development.
  • Challenging, modern projects
    including production Gutenberg builds, custom themes and plugins, not just content updates, so you gain experience that genuinely furthers your career.
  • Supportive, close knit team
    of designers, developers and marketers who collaborate closely, share solutions and help you get unstuck quickly.
