The Role

Our Client is building an array of ambitious JavaScript Web Applications and we need your help. You will be working closely with the design and front-end team to deliver new functionality and maintain existing codebases.

You will need to have a strong understanding of JavaScript and the modern frontend landscape. The pace of change will be seen as an exciting challenge instead of a constant nightmare.

You are motivated to combine the art of design with the art of programming. Responsibilities will include translating conceptual designs and templates into working elements of the application.

  • Excellent understanding of client-side scripting and JavaScript frameworks
  • Excellent understanding of modern front-end libraries such as ReactEmber, Angular or Vue
  • Excellent knowledge of JavaScript testing frameworks
  • Good understanding of asynchronous request handling, partial page updates, and AJAX
  • Basic knowledge of image authoring tools, to be able to crop, resize, or perform small adjustments on an image. Familiarity with tools such as Sketch or Photoshop is a plus.
  • Proficient understanding of cross-browser compatibility issues and ways to work around them.
  • Ensure that all user input is validated before submitting to back-end

  • Flexible working available, some people work 8-4.30pm, 9-5.30pm and 10-6.30pm
  • Also the option to work from home – happy to consider someone who wants to work remote 3 days per week and work from the office 2 days per week
