Overview
The platform is a WordPress Multisite environment. You'll work alongside an internal front-end developer who handles content management, page building, and UX — your focus is the backend: keeping the platform healthy, building custom functionality, and managing deployments.
Job Reference: #LI-JC1
Key Responsibilities
- Keep all six brand sites up to date — security patches, plugin updates, and core updates on a routine and emergency basis.
- Monitor site health, uptime, and performance; coordinate with our hosting provider (Pantheon) on backups, restores, and incident response.
- Serve as the internal point of contact for WordPress-related technical requests, triaging and prioritising work coming from Marketing and other teams.
- Handle day-to-day development requests: bug fixes, small feature builds, and plugin configuration.
- Build and maintain custom Gutenberg blocks (PHP + JS) and handle PHP theme modifications as needed.
- Manage the Webpack-based build process and SCSS structure for the shared theme.
- Own the deployment pipeline — Git-based deployments across Dev, Test, and Live on Pantheon — and review front-end changes before they go live.
- Set up and configure hosting environments, domain onboarding, and SSL on Pantheon.
- Maintain third-party integrations — forms, GTM, translation connectors, and APIs.
- Respond to critical incidents: site down, data loss, or security breach across any brand site.
- Conduct accessibility technical reviews (axe DevTools, screen reader testing) and implement approved fixes.
- Build and maintain internal technical documentation — this role replaces an outside agency, so knowledge retention matters from day one.
Requirements
- 3+ years of WordPress development experience, ideally including Multisite environments.
- Solid PHP skills and hands-on experience with Gutenberg block development (PHP + JS).
- Comfortable with SCSS/CSS, BEM methodology, and a build tool such as Webpack.
- Familiar with WordPress security fundamentals — patching, hardening, vulnerability response.
- Experience with Git and staging/production deployment workflows.
- Good communicator — you'll work closely with Marketing, front-end, and IT and need to translate technical issues clearly.
- Experience with Pantheon or a comparable managed WordPress hosting platform.
- Familiarity with multilingual WordPress setups (MultilingualPress, WPML, or similar).
- Experience with Composer for PHP dependency management.
- Working knowledge of DNS, domain configuration, and SSL basics.
- Exposure to translation management integrations (Phrase, Smartling, or similar).
