Senior PHP Developer – WordPress

Up to £50,000

Huddersfield / Hybrid

Now hiring Senior PHP Developers for one of the UKs top WordPress agencies. They are WordPress VIP partners, WP Engine accredited, multi-award winning and on their way to becoming B Corp certified.

They offer flexibility, autonomy and the chance to get involved in complex WordPress projects, whether that’s a bespoke Laravel platform with a headless React frontend, building an eCommerce store, a donation gateway, a payment gateway plug-in or a live events feed – the list goes on.

We are looking for a senior level WordPress Developer with strong API and plug-in experience. They do a lot of bespoke work in this area and are looking for someone who has experience with:

  • API integrations – Salesforce, HubSpot, other CRMs, catalogues etc.
  • Custom API development – REST/SOAP APIs, Postman, authentication etc.
  • Designing and building plug-ins using hooks and filters, single sign-on, OpenAthens etc.
  • Headless / SPA frontend experience – React, Node, NextJS etc.
  • Technology standards – OOP, PSR, WordPress VIP, reusability etc.
  • Node / SASS / Gulp / Webpack / ACF
  • WooCommerce / eCommerce
  • Gutenberg blocks – ideally without the use of ACF – desired
  • Lambda, AWS, Elastic Search, OAuth, Laravel – desired

We’re looking for someone from an agency background who has experience leading and mentoring on projects with multiple developers. The ‘senior’ aspect of this role will involve:

  • Solution design
  • Estimating and scoping projects
  • Deciding on the tools to be used
  • Taking and leading projects from sign off to delivery

What’s on offer:

  • Project ownership and autonomy over technical direction / tools
  • Flexible, hybrid working – remote with 1 or 2 office days each month
  • Office space near Huddersfield with parking and close proximity to a train station
  • 25 days annual leave, plus your birthday off, plus Christmas shutdown – circa 29 days in total, plus bank holidays on top
  • 2 days or 4 half days per month dedicated to personal development and learning – plus an individual training budget
  • Workplace pension scheme
  • Time off for charitable work and access to a mental health first aider

As one of the UKs most respected WordPress agencies they ensure they contribute to WordPress core, sponsor events and this year they attended WordCamp.

It’s a great agency, with exceptionally low staff turnover and a team comprised of some of the best PHP WordPress Developers there is – if this sounds like something you want to be part of, please apply now.
