Job Description

WHO ARE WE?

We’re a specialist Conversion Rate Optimisation agency in the heart of Manchester. We’re currently a team of 12, but we’re growing quickly. We focus on improving user experience and increasing our client’s revenue by influencing user perception, behaviour and motivation through A/B testing.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

If you’re passionate about improving user experience, and creating innovative solutions that meet the requirements of our clients, then we want to speak to you.

We want someone who wants to make an impact. Don’t just send through your CV, we want you to tell us why you’re the right person to grow within our business. If you’re up for a challenge, then you’re the person we’re looking for.

Experience isn’t everything. We know that you’re a recent graduate so you might not have much commercial experience - we don’t care about that. We’re just looking for someone with a passion for all things HTML, CSS, jQuery and JavaScript – if you’ve got a keen eye for design / UX too, that helps!

You’ll join our in-house development team and be put through our internal training plan which will allow you to provide technical expertise and code concepts to our Optimisation Consultants, leading to A/B and multivariate test creation. In a typical week, you could be developing on up to 10 sites, with a variety of difficulty, so you must be adaptable and efficient in your approach.

Reporting to our Head of Development, you’ll be involved in creating solutions that affect the complete end to end journey of our client sites and you’ll be able to see the results of your efforts being reported on in real-time.

You should have a genuine desire and passion to continually learn and stay at the forefront of the development industry. We’ll support this growth by providing you with any necessary training courses.

Role Specification:

  • Develop front-end code variations for A/B and MVT tests using HTML, CSS, JQuery and JavaScript DOM-manipulation.
  • Develop technical instructions for clients to install A/B testing tool scripts and test variations.
  • Evaluate business goals provided by User Conversion strategists and develop tracking & tagging methods to allow our team and the clients’ teams to measure success.
  • Perform a technical evaluation to determine if the testing scripts will impact on any existing coding on the site.
  • Provide web analytics platform implementation and technical audits, testing technical reviews and testing tool customizations with JavaScript.
  • Perform quality assurance tests on tracking implementations. Must have excellent debugging skills to be able to ascertain the cause of the problem when a test is not performing as expected or is impacting on other reporting. Assist with tracking and improving the results of clients marketing campaigns.
  • Develop User Conversion’s internal project management and reporting tools and participate in technical R&D projects.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO SUCCEED:

As a Front-end Developer, you’ll be responsible for supporting our clients’ conversion optimisation testing by building A/B test variations using HTML, CSS and jQuery / JavaScript as well as providing web analytics technical implementation support.

Our developers spend a lot of time developing in jQuery, so familiarity, confidence and experience with this is a must. In addition to this, you’ll understand the importance of pixel-perfect HTML/CSS, building for responsive websites, usability principles, site load speed and error-free website functionality.

You will also provide technical implementation support for our clients’ developers and ensure high quality HTML/CSS/JavaScript is delivered to the client with the support of our Head of Development.

Ideally, you will have experience with a wide variety of web technology platforms and can customise our testing and analytics implementations to achieve the conversion testing and reporting requirements.
