Herga Group is looking for a hands-on Full Stack Web Developer to build, maintain and continuously improve websites across our portfolio of businesses.
We're looking for someone who enjoys both development and design. You'll work with code, build responsive websites, develop custom functionality and integrations, and create polished digital experiences that support business growth.
WordPress is our primary platform today, but we're technology agnostic. We're interested in developers who can bring new ideas, technologies and better ways of building for the future.
This is not a marketing coordinator role. This is a genuine development role where you'll be actively building and improving websites every day.
About the Role
You'll be the primary website delivery resource across the Herga Group, working across new website builds, enhancements, landing pages, integrations and ongoing improvements for multiple brands and industries.
You'll collaborate with Marketing, IT, Digital and business stakeholders, while being supported by experienced specialists across web development, digital engineering, SEO and digital growth.
Alongside our WordPress environment, you'll have opportunities to contribute to eCommerce, integrations, automation, AI and the future evolution of our digital platforms.
What You'll Be Doing
- Building, enhancing and maintaining websites across the Herga Group
- Developing custom functionality using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and other relevant technologies
- Creating responsive, visually engaging and user-friendly digital experiences
- Building reusable templates, components and modules
- Working with APIs, integrations, eCommerce and business systems
- Improving SEO, performance, security and accessibility
- Exploring new technologies, automation and AI where they can improve our digital platforms
What We're Looking For
Essential
- Commercial experience as a Web Developer
- Strong HTML, CSS and JavaScript skills
- Strong WordPress experience
- PHP and backend development experience
- Experience with APIs and third-party integrations
- Solid understanding of website hosting and web technologies
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
