The Opportunity

We are seeking a Senior Front-End Developer to design and build high-performance, scalable and user-centric web applications.

This role goes beyond visual UI — it requires deep ownership of end-to-end user experience, performance optimisation and front-end architecture.

What You’ll Do

  • Design, develop and maintain modern web applications using Angular or React (minimum 5 years’ experience in one or both).
  • Lead both UI and UX implementation — owning user flows, usability, accessibility and experience quality.
  • Translate product requirements into elegant, responsive, production-ready interfaces.
  • Build mobile-first, responsive applications with a Progressive Web App (PWA) approach.
  • Develop scalable, reusable and maintainable component architectures.
  • Implement high-quality, consistent styling using modern CSS frameworks and methodologies.
  • Work from Figma designs and collaborate closely with design and product stakeholders.
  • Collaborate with Product Owners and Back-End Developers to deliver cohesive, integrated solutions.
  • Engage directly with customers when required — demoing features, gathering feedback and iterating rapidly.
  • Apply performance-first engineering principles:
  • Caching strategies
  • Lazy loading
  • Code splitting
  • Dynamic scrolling / virtualisation
  • Bundle optimisation
  • Optimise applications for speed, accessibility and cross-device compatibility.
  • Contribute to Agile delivery processes (Scrum and/or Kanban).
  • Participate in sprint ceremonies and iterative delivery cycles.
  • Mentor junior developers and raise engineering standards across the team.
  • Contribute to front-end architectural decisions and technical design discussions.

What We’re Looking For

Essential

  • Minimum 5 years’ professional experience with Angular and/or React.
  • Strong experience delivering mobile-first, responsive web applications.
  • Experience building and deploying Progressive Web Applications (PWAs).
  • Expert-level CSS knowledge (SCSS/LESS) and modern CSS frameworks.
  • Strong UI/UX capability — able to think beyond visuals into usability and workflow design.
  • Experience working from Figma designs and collaborating with designers.
  • Performance-minded engineering approach.
  • Strong TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML and component architecture experience.
  • Comfortable working in Agile environments (Scrum / Kanban).
  • Experience mentoring junior team members.
  • Confident communicating with stakeholders and customers.

Desirable

  • Experience integrating front-end applications with APIs and authentication flows.
  • Experience with C# / .NET back-end services.
  • Familiarity with Azure-hosted applications.
  • Experience with Jira and Confluence.

Benefits

  • Share options for senior hires
  • 25 days annual leave + public holidays
  • Company pension contributions
  • Flexible, remote-first working (37.5 hour working week)
  • Home office/equipment allowance
