About the role

This role is hands-on development to support different teams across the business, Marketing, SEO/GEO, Creative and CRO, on our site and on client platforms.

What this role will own

1. Our website

• Templates and page builds: location pages, service and sector pages, section pages, blog and article templates, author pages, landing pages and campaign pages.


• Performance: Core Web Vitals, page speed, caching and plugin hygiene, with a full mobile responsiveness overhaul.


• Integrations: HubSpot forms and tracking, GA4 and Google Tag Manager, job listings via ATS API, and other martech connections.


• Maintenance: plugin and core updates, security, staging-to-production workflow, backups, uptime and bug fixes.

2. CRO, analytics and measurement

• Experimentation: implement A/B tests and CRO changes using VWO, Optimizely, Adobe Target or equivalent, and support the testing roadmap.


• Front and back end: implement conversion changes across both website and app surfaces.


• Tracking implementation: build and QA GA4 and GTM events, data layers, conversion tracking and experiment tracking, working with the CRO and analytics teams.


• Debugging: diagnose tracking issues confidently using browser DevTools, GTM Preview, GA4 DebugView and similar.

3. SEO and GEO implementation

• Technical foundations: XML sitemaps, robots.txt (including AI crawler rules for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and others), canonical tags, redirects, hreflang where relevant, and llms.txt.


• Structured data: Organization, Service, Article and FAQ JSON-LD implemented from specifications supplied by the SEO/GEO team, validated error-free.


• On-page execution: metadata, heading structure, internal linking, schema and content-structure changes that make pages readable to search engines and AI answer engines.


• Diagnostics: work on the SEO/GEO team on crawl, indexation and log analysis, and fix what the audits surface.

4. Client delivery

• Implementation on client sites: deliver technical SEO/GEO scopes across client platforms, WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, and headless or other CMSs such as Contentful, to agreed acceptance criteria.


• Scoping and estimating: size the technical work in audits, pitches and retainers so we quote accurately and commit to realistic timelines.


• Documentation: clear handover notes and QA evidence the account and SEO teams can share with clients.

What we're looking for

Essential

• 4–6 years building and maintaining sites in a commercial or agency environment.


• Hands-on experience across more than one CMS (WordPress plus Shopify, Webflow or similar).


• Strong PHP, HTML, CSS and JavaScript; comfortable with custom themes, page builders and custom post types.


• Working knowledge of React and of database management, SQL and MongoDB.


• Demonstrable technical SEO implementation experience -schema, canonicals, sitemaps, redirects, Core Web Vitals - and comfort taking direction from GEO/SEO specialists.


• Practical tracking and analytics skills: GA4, Google Tag Manager, Google Search Console, and QA of events and data layers.


• Experience implementing A/B tests through VWO, Optimizely, Adobe Target or equivalent.


• Git-based workflow, staging environments and structured QA before anything goes live.


• Comfortable working from design files in Figma.

Desirable

• Headless CMS experience (Contentful or similar).


• HubSpot CMS, forms or CRM integration experience.
