Job description

We are looking for someone with experience of significant web design and development projects, and an interest in arts and technology.

You will collaborate with established Cogapp clients, work with developers to continuously improve our work, and have the opportunity to learn from colleagues, conferences and training. You will build client relationships to become, and remain, trusted partners able to deal with challenges tactfully as a united front.

Depending on your experience and areas of interest, Producers also contribute to user experience and design thinking, proposals and marketing efforts, and QA testing and working with the team to improve internal processes.

About you

• You will have experience managing significant web design and development projects. If they are arts-related or for external clients, even better.
• You are a clear and confident communicator in person and writing.
• You enjoy responsibility, leading a team and take pride in your work.
• You are flexible in your approach to problem-solving and prioritisation.
• You think proactively and anticipate potential outcomes.
• You are pleasantly ambitious, and unashamedly organised.
• You are looking to develop your career.
