About the company
Remote World is partnering with a UK-based digital agency to hire for this role. They build and maintain WordPress sites for clients in professional services, healthcare, and education — typically 10–20 active projects at any time, ranging from content sites to custom-plugin integrations.
The role
You'll build, customise, and maintain WordPress sites for a portfolio of UK clients — working from design briefs to deliver clean, fast, secure builds. You'll develop custom themes and plugins where needed, and you'll be the go-to person for anything WordPress-related.
What you'll do
- Build WordPress sites from design mockups using custom themes or page builders
- Develop custom plugins and theme modifications using PHP
- Maintain existing client sites — updates, security patches, and performance
- Integrate third-party tools including CRMs, payment gateways, and analytics
- Troubleshoot and debug WordPress issues across hosting environments
What you'll need
- Strong WordPress development experience — themes, plugins, and custom PHP
- Solid HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for frontend work
- Comfortable with Git and deploying to shared or managed hosting
- Reliable and communicative — clients notice when things go wrong
Nice to have
- Experience with Elementor, ACF, or WooCommerce
- Familiarity with performance optimisation (caching, image compression, Core Web Vitals)
- Understanding of WordPress security best practices
What you'll get
- $550–$900 USD/month based on experience
- Fully remote and async-friendly
- Varied projects across industries — no two builds are the same
- Paid leave
- Path to Senior Developer or Technical Lead roles
Apply with your CV and links to two or three WordPress sites you've built or contributed to.
