Student Roles

Web Developer
Closing Date: 30/09/2024 12:30
The Role

We are recruiting for primarily PHP Developers to join our Digital Team and are looking for a number of student developers who are enthusiastic, hard-working, keen to develop and ready for a fun challenge. The work will vary and depending on your availability around you studies, it could be project based on fixed hours weekly – we can be flexible.

About You

To be considered, you will need to be able to demonstrate existing skills using web development technologies, including PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and Git. Experience with PHP outside of its use within frameworks is also a plus but not essential, as is experience working within a large application codebase. Other than that it is your enthusiasm and love for problem solving that will win us over!

If this is you then please get in touch.
