Senior WordPress Developer

Maxwell Bond

Wilmslow · England · United Kingdom

Picture yourself walking into work knowing you own the entire web function.

No endless agency tickets. No layers of approval. No being one developer in a huge digital team.

You’re the technical owner.

You’ll take responsibility for a portfolio of high-traffic websites, working closely with marketing and engineering to decide what gets built, how it gets built and where the websites go next.

Across the portfolio, the websites attract around 100,000 visitors every month and play a major role in generating new business.

This is a newly created role, so you’ll have plenty of freedom to put your own stamp on things.

What your day-to-day looks like:

  • Owning and developing multiple WordPress websites
  • Working with PHP, MySQL, CSS and WordPress
  • Managing plugins, integrations and APIs
  • Working closely with marketing to turn ideas into website improvements
  • Becoming the go-to technical person for everything web
  • Working with the wider engineering team when integrations get more involved
  • Having the opportunity to shape and grow the wider web function

You’ll need:

  • PHP and MySQL
  • WordPress plugin and API integration experience
  • The confidence to work independently and take ownership
  • React experience would be a nice bonus.

The perks are pretty good too:

  • Lunch prepared by a Michelin-star chef
  • Free breakfast + Luxury coffee machines
  • Christmas shutdown from 23 December to New Year
  • On-site parking
  • Flexible start and finish times
  • A relaxed, collaborative culture

This suits a Senior WordPress Developer who wants to stop being "the developer" and become the person who owns web.

If you’re coming from an agency, freelancing or another senior WordPress position and want more ownership, autonomy and visibility, this is worth a conversation.
