Sheffield / Full-time / £35–£45k (subject to experience)

The role

This is an exciting role within the agency for an experienced senior full stack developer to join our growing multi-disciplinary team. We are looking for someone who has a leaning towards front-end dev, but is also comfortable working across back-end when necessary.

We hope you will be super-excited about working on high profile, creative and dare we say it, innovative projects for broadcasters, media and cultural organisations. You will have the right mix of skills, motivation and passion, combining creative thinking and solid development standards, to help us deliver exceptional and varied projects. You should also have a thorough understanding of accessibility and best practices so we can make our work as inclusive as possible.

Healthcare, extensive holidays, training, bonus schemes, pension contributions, cycle to work, flexible working, socials and lunches — and the potential for career growth — are all part of the package here at Joi Polloi.

The company

Our clients include Channel 4, the BBC, Love Productions, Studio Lambert, the Science Museum, Natural History Museum, Museums Sheffield, Sheffield Theatres, and an enviable list of other high profile companies, brands and creative organisations of all sizes nationally and internationally.

We have a broad range of work types that will excite and challenge you, including websites and platforms, content campaigns, software apps and systems. We’re never afraid to take on projects which are creatively, editorially or technically challenging, and do it all with flexibility, good humour and pride.

Our team of designers, developers and producers share a common goal — to produce high quality work and do it with integrity.

We strive for a positive work-life balance and have created a fun, supportive, nurturing atmosphere which recognises, supports and rewards hard work.
