Do you want to work in a position where you’ll use your frontend development skills to deliver websites that meet client goals and convert to sales?

• Be part of a UX and digital marketing consultancy that creates beautifully crafted eCommerce experiences for national and international clients
• Have an in-depth understanding of WordPress and WooCommerce and know what makes them perform well

Over the past 15 years we’ve been through an evolution; from a small 2 person team to an integrated UX focused digital agency. Our digital team delivers campaigns and sites for ecommerce companies and we produce top-notch creative content.

We like to challenge ourselves, so we’re looking for someone who’s really open to testing out new technologies when the opportunity presents itself.

The stuff we’re expecting:

• You can write semantic, accessible HTML and modular, scalable CSS. Plus, you’re a competent PHP developer

• You’ve got experience developing in WordPress (plus WooCommerce) and Shopify
• You can use Git/Bitbucket to manage code
• You’re comfortable mentoring and supporting other members of the front-end team
• You’re up for helping to adapt and evolve our in-house development standards and processes
• You’ll be confident presenting to our clients and the wider company
• You’re excited to research, evaluate and share new technologies, methods and techniques

The stuff we’d love to see

• You know your way around Figma, XD, Photoshop and other design tools
• You’re comfortable with SVGs and have maybe tinkered with a bit of front end animation
• Server-side stuff doesn’t scare you and you even know some Node or don’t mind getting stuck in with MySql

The nice stuff

We’re all about making Factory Pattern a seriously nice place to be.
Here are a few things we do:

• A holiday allowance of 25 days per year (plus bank holidays and 3 additional days off over the Xmas period)
• Annual Weekend Away
• Training (internally and externally)
• Free company events
• Pension scheme
• Passion project time
• Headspace Subscription
• A selection of tea, coffee and fresh fruit
• Ted Talk Tuesdays – we all get together and watch a TED talk (or similar on Tuesdays) which helps bring the team together and expand our minds that little bit more
• Elevenses (tea/coffee and cake) on Wednesdays
