We’re looking for a Full-Stack Developer & Digital Designer  who can blend creativity with technical expertise to build seamless, engaging digital experiences. In this role, you’ll design intuitive user interfaces, craft thoughtful visual systems, and then bring them to life through clean, scalable front- and back-end code.

You’ll collaborate across teams to develop responsive applications that are as visually compelling as they are technically sound. If you’re equally comfortable refining design details and architecting robust solutions, and you love turning ideas into polished products, we’d love to have you on board.

The role:

In this role, you’ll take ownership of the design process, creating bespoke website designs that engage our target audiences and reflect the latest digital trends. From full site concepts to detailed interactions, you’ll craft user-friendly, visually compelling experiences that work seamlessly across desktop and mobile. Using tools such as Figma and Adobe Creative Suite, you’ll shape prototypes and design systems, then bring them to life in code to ensure every site feels polished, intuitive, and modern.

Alongside development, you’ll manage and optimise the environments our sites run on, working with solutions from Linux servers and LAMP stacks to Docker containers and cloud services such as AWS. Security, performance, and scalability will be part of your everyday thinking, as you configure servers, set up hosting platforms, and maintain smooth deployment pipelines.

You’ll also work with databases, APIs, build systems and CI workflows to keep projects running efficiently, applying best practices in technical SEO, accessibility, and application security. This is a hands-on role that combines creative front-end work with behind-the-scenes technical expertise, perfect for someone who enjoys variety and solving problems across the full digital stack.

Key responsibilities

• Develop responsive, interactive websites with modern web technologies
• Maintain and optimise servers, hosting platforms, and cloud services
• Translate prototypes and design systems into functional, polished products
• Apply best practices in security, performance, SEO, and accessibility

What we’re looking for

• Strong front-end skills (HTML/CSS/JS/TS, React/Preact) plus PHP/Node.js
• Experience with WordPress and modern CMS platforms
• Knowledge of server management (Linux, Apache/Nginx, Docker, AWS)
• Design awareness and proficiency with Figma/Adobe Creative Suite
• A problem-solver who thrives at the intersection of code, design, and infrastructure
