Web Developer
at Kinora GroupWeb Developer (UX/UI) Build the digital face of a whole portfolio of brands Most web roles hand you one product. This one hands you a portfolio: restaurants, bars, estates, food manufacturing, and every brand in between. We are bringing design in-house for the first time. You'll be the first hire and the person who sets the standard. If it works, and we think it will, this role becomes the foundation of TopCo's own in-house design studio. No agency briefs, no waiting weeks for a round of edits. You design it, you build it, you ship it. About the role We're hiring a Web Developer with a strong UX/UI eye to own the websites and digital experiences for every TopCo portfolio company. This is a hands-on role. You'll take projects from first sketch to live site, often several at once. Our brands are consumer-facing and lifestyle-led, so the work needs to feel fresh, clean and beautiful, never corporate. You'll work closely with leadership and the marketing teams across each brand. You'll have real influence over how the in-house design function grows from here. What you'll do
- Design and build websites and digital experiences for TopCo's portfolio brands
- Own the UX/UI end to end, from wireframes and prototypes to polished, responsive front-end builds
- Run several brand projects in parallel, and prioritise and deliver at a pace an agency can't match
- Keep each brand distinct while raising the design quality and consistency across the whole portfolio
- Work with brand and marketing stakeholders to turn briefs into experiences that drive performance
- Gradually bring work back from external agencies and build the processes, tools and standards for a future in-house design studio About you You're a maker first. You love the craft of design and the satisfaction of shipping it yourself.
- A strong, hands-on individual contributor who designs and builds, rather than managing others who do
- A portfolio of consumer-facing, lifestyle-led work with a fresh, clean and modern aesthetic (not primarily B2B)
- Solid front-end development skills, and comfort turning your own designs into live, responsive sites
- Exposure to international or global brands, and a mindset that thinks beyond one market
- Experience across different industries. Hospitality is a bonus, but we're not looking for a purely restaurant background
- Calm and organised when several projects move at once, and confident working directly with senior stakeholders What's in it for you
- A competitive base salary
- Equity through carry scheme, so you share in the value you help create
- Remote-first working, based in or around London with occasional office visits
- A founding role with the scope to shape, and potentially lead, a future in-house design studio
- Variety you won't find elsewhere: a whole portfolio of distinctive consumer brands under one roof
