Job Description

PHP Developer

My client, a leading player in the e-commerce space within the hardware supply chain industry, is seeking an experienced PHP Developer to join their growing tech team. Following several record-breaking revenue years and multiple industry awards, the company is entering an exciting expansion phase. This is a dynamic role where no two days will be the same, and the successful candidate will play a crucial part in scaling new product offerings. You will be working with the CTO - a great guy who is transparent and passionate about the business, and someone to learn from.

The ideal candidate will have strong experience in PHP (raw) development, alongside proficiency in MySQL, JavaScript, and jQuery. My client is looking for someone who is not only technically skilled but also eager to take on diverse challenges, contributing to a small but highly impactful team. This is an excellent opportunity to join a thriving business and make a significant impact during a pivotal time of growth. It's worth stressing this is not an average development role and you will be working with and speaking to different parts of the business to truly understand things that need improving, or areas where new things need to be built - an eagerness to understand the company you work for across all areas, and a willingness to communicate is required.

Skills:

• Strong experience with PHP development
• Proficiency in MySQL
• Solid knowledge of JavaScript and jQuery
• Willingness to take on diverse tasks and try different things
• Ability to work collaboratively within a small, dynamic tech team
• Problem-solving mindset and adaptability in a fast-growing environment.

This isn't a role where you'll be surrounded by Google-esc bean bags in a glass-walled office, however, if you have a deep interest in continuous improvement, different challenges, and seeing visually the impact you have on a business/product, then this is ideal.

Initially, this will be fully office-based in Cheshire for the first few months, then more hybrid flex will be offered - the reason being is that it's part of the nature of the team to want to understand and see how things develop from a hardware perspective and understand the needs from other internal teams.

Interested, or have any questions? Please apply or reach out.

Unfortunately, our client cannot offer sponsorship. Also, unless you're local to Cheshire, or willing to relocate, I wouldn't suggest applying to this role!
