A digital marketing agency based in Hertford is looking for a middleweight WordPress Developer with a sharp eye for design to join their team. You will be the vital link between the Design and Marketing teams, building high-converting, "lightning-fast" websites that serve as the foundation for SEO, PPC, and GEO campaigns.
While they follow a "no-code" policy where possible for efficiency, you must possess a deep proficiency in HTML and CSS to bridge the gap between Elementor's capabilities and bespoke design requirements, as well as manage server-side logic and custom data structures.
Key Responsibilities- Performance-First Build: Develop pixel-perfect, responsive sites using Elementor Pro and Gutenberg, ensuring every build is optimised for speed (Core Web Vitals).
- Dynamic Logic: Architect complex site structures using Crocoblock (JetEngine) or ACF (Custom Post Types, Relations, and Dynamic Visibility).
- Site Migrations: Safely manage site migrations from staging to live environments and from external platforms (Wix, Squarespace, Shopify) into WordPress.
- Reactive Troubleshooting: Act as the first line of defence for site errors, plugin conflicts, and server-side issues.
- Technical SEO Support: Implement advanced caching strategies and performance optimisations to ensure peak site velocity.
- Collaboration: Work with Designers to ensure UI feasibility and with the Marketing team to ensure tracking (GTM/GA4) and SEO structures are flawless.
- The Tech Stack: Expert-level WordPress, Elementor Pro, and the Crocoblock suite.
- Performance Knowledge: Deep understanding of caching (WP Rocket, Object Cache, etc.), CDN setup, and image optimisation.
- Design Eye: An intuitive grasp of padding, typography, and layout, able to match a Figma/Adobe design exactly.
- Technical Base: Proficiency in CSS and a functional understanding of PHP.
- Platform Flex: Ability to navigate and troubleshoot existing client sites on Shopify, Wix, or Squarespace.
Join a collaborative, high-energy team where your input shapes projects from day one. You will receive a high-spec MacBook Pro setup and have access to a dedicated annual training budget for professional development (courses, certifications, and tech events). The workspace in Hertford is professional and focused, with a shared passion for growth and great design.
Sponsorship won't be offered, so you will need to have an independent right to work in the UK and be within commuting distance of Hertford. Apply now for immediate consideration for the WordPress Developer position or contact Stuart Barnes at ITSS Recruitment for further information.
