Job description

We're looking for a Front-end Designer/Developer who can turn briefs into clear, thoughtful Figma designs and then build them in WordPress using clean, custom themes. The role leans towards design, but strong front-end build skills are essential. You're confident making UX and layout decisions, comfortable owning work end-to-end, and focused on delivering quality rather than firefighting. You've worked in an agency environment, thrive on pace and variety, and can manage your own workload in a fully remote setup. Furthermore, you're curious about your craft, open to feedback, and confident sharing opinions while working well in a small, experienced team. Over time, you're looking to step up - taking on more responsibility, and growing towards a senior or leadership role

What You'll Do:

  • Transform client briefs into polished, thoughtful Figma designs that bring ideas to life
  • Make smart UX and design decisions around layout, hierarchy, and content flow - always with the user in mind
  • Design reusable UI components and build simple, scalable design systems
  • Bring your designs to life by building them in WordPress using custom themes
  • Confidently work with ACF, Gutenberg blocks, and structured content to create flexible, future-proof sites
  • Craft responsive layouts and subtle interactions that feel smooth and intentional across devices
  • Collaborate closely with the wider team, clearly communicating progress and ideas at every stage
  • Partner with backend developers to ensure your design vision is fully realised in the final build, * Varied, meaningful work across two agencies and a wide range of sectors
  • A powerful Mac, large 2nd display, keyboard, mouse and dock, and the software you need to do your job properly
  • Varied, meaningful work across two agencies and many sectors
  • An optional, all-expenses-paid annual team retreat in Portugal
  • A calm, straightforward working culture focused on doing good work

If you're a Front-end Designer/Developer who enjoys balancing design thinking with hands-on build work - and you're looking for a remote role where quality genuinely comes first - we'd love to hear from you., Aside from a sensible fee model, custom technology and a direct unhindered path to candidates we don't sell candidates and we don't sell jobs: we facilitate relationships and champion the process of 'organic hiring' to help create stronger and longer-lasting engagements.

Requirements

Your Skills/Experience: Experienced in Figma. An interest in UX/UI. Front end Wordpress experience. Agency experience is a bonus., * Strong Figma skills, with confidence in layouts, components, and user flows

  • A solid grasp of UX fundamentals and a sharp eye for clean, considered interface design
  • Proven experience building custom WordPress themes from the ground up
  • Strong working knowledge of ACF, Gutenberg, and WordPress best practices
  • Excellent HTML and CSS skills, plus a working knowledge of PHP for WordPress theming
  • Ability to work independently, take ownership, and see tasks through from start to finish

Nice to have:

  • Experience working in a digital or creative agency environment
  • Comfortable presenting work or talking through design decisions with clients
  • Experience designing and building for a range of sectors, brands, or audiences
