  • Ensure websites are visually appealing, mobile-friendly, and easy to navigate.

  • Troubleshoot website issues and make improvements when required.
  • Work alongside content and marketing teams to ensure websites support wider business objectives.

  • Experience with product-based businesses, online stores, and digital marketing environments will be highly beneficial.
  • **Preferred / Advantageous Skills**

  • Landing page creation.
  • Conversion-focused website design.
  • AI website builders and tools such as Lovable or similar platforms.
  • Integrating marketing tools, analytics, and tracking systems.

  • **Working Arrangement**
  • Fully remote position.
  • Full-time commitment: 40 hours per week.
  • Flexible working schedule — you can organise your working hours around your schedule, provided weekly commitments and deadlines are achieved.
  • Opportunity to work directly with an international entrepreneur building multiple online brands.
