Website Designer/Developer

KWSM•San Diego, CA

8h•$60 - $70•Hybrid

About The Position

We are looking for a front-end designer/developer to create new websites and refresh existing websites for our clients. We are a digital marketing agency that believes that digital tactics work best when we can drive traffic to a highly-functional hub. There is no reason for a company to invest in a digital strategy if their website is outdated. You will work with our team of Digital Marketing Strategists, Copywriters and SEO Specialists to create an outstanding online presence for each of our clients, ensuring that their website and other digital channels are working together. We're looking for someone who truly wants to be part of a team. We're building something amazing, and need your ideas and talent to continue to take our 14-year-old agency to the next level. At KWSM, you will be part of a driven, hard-working team, while enjoying the balance of a hybrid schedule and every other Friday off. We take career development seriously, and love to train & promote leaders. We expect our web designer/developers to have design capabilities in addition to the ability (or willingness to learn) to build out a website. You must be able to listen to a client's goals and ideas, and create a website that exceeds their expectations. This isn't the kind of gig where you can work through a couple of rounds of changes, and be finished with the site. We will continue to tweak a website until the client is thrilled - or a landing page until our ads are converting. We design great looking sites that also must work to generate leads or sales. You’ll be given the freedom to share your ideas and expertise. You’ll have responsibility for your own client projects, but will be part of a tight-knit, high-performing team to help you succeed.
