Job description

Web Developer (Laravel)

Northampton (Hybrid working - 3 days a week onsite) - £26,000-£34,000 + Benefits

Excellent opportunity for a Web Developer with experience of working with Laravel in a commercial setting to join a growing and supportive development team, working on a range of web applications that help some of the UK's best known organisations grow and shine!

This company is a creative and innovative digital solutions provider with a reputation for delivering high-quality, bespoke applications to a loyal customer base. Following new investment and ownership, the business is growing steadily post‑covid and offers a highly collaborative environment where your contributions will directly influence future successes.

In this role you’ll be responsible for developing, maintaining, and optimising web applications built in Laravel, PHP, and MySQL. You’ll collaborate with colleagues and clients to scope, design, and deliver new features whilst also ensuring existing systems remain performant, secure, and scalable. The role follows a hybrid working pattern, with Mondays and Fridays at home, and Tuesdays to Thursdays office‑based.

The ideal candidate will bring strong experience in Laravel, PHP, and a solid understanding of databases, ideally MySQL. A good experience with modern web development, design, and optimisation is also required. Experience with other front‑end tools and technologies would be beneficial but isn’t essential.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a friendly, close‑knit team in a role that offers variety, autonomy, and professional development. You’ll gain exposure to cloud‑based technologies, client‑facing work, and play an integral part in the ongoing growth of the company.

The Role:

• Develop, maintain, and enhance web applications using Laravel, PHP, and MySQL
• Optimise applications for performance, security, and scalability
• Collaborate with colleagues and clients to plan and deliver new features
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues across the full stack
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to best practices

The Person:

• 3+ years’ experience as a Web Developer or Software Engineer
• Proficient with Laravel Framework
• Knowledge of database design and optimisation (ideally MySQL)
• Experience with Git version control and API integration
• Able to pass a DBS check during probation due to client location
