WordPress and Elementor developer with project management experience
Worldwide
We are seeking a skilled WordPress and Elementor Developer who combines strong front-end development expertise with solid project management capabilities. UX/UI design is handled by our design team — your role is focused purely on building. You will take approved designs and turn them into high-quality, fully functional WordPress websites using Elementor, while independently managing project tasks, timelines, and priorities with precision and accountability. Key Responsibilities - Build and develop responsive WordPress websites using Elementor (and Elementor Pro) based on provided UX/UI designs and specifications. - Accurately implement approved designs into clean, functional, and pixel-perfect websites. - Customize themes, create custom templates, and implement advanced Elementor features (dynamic content, theme builder, custom CSS/JS where needed). - Ensure websites are optimized for performance, SEO, accessibility, and mobile responsiveness. - Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues related to WordPress, plugins, themes, and Elementor. Collaborate with stakeholders to clarify requirements, provide progress updates, and deliver projects on time. - Manage multiple projects simultaneously by breaking work into clear tasks, setting realistic deadlines, tracking progress, and maintaining accurate time records. - Document work, maintain organized project files, and communicate status proactively. Required Skills & Experience - Proven hands-on experience developing WordPress websites with Elementor (Elementor Pro experience preferred). - Strong understanding of WordPress architecture, themes, plugins, and best practices. - Solid knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and basic PHP. - Experience with website performance optimization, security best practices, and responsive design. - Ability to faithfully implement provided designs without needing to create or redesign the UX/UI. - Demonstrated project task management and timekeeping skills — ability to plan, prioritize, track, and complete work efficiently using task management tools while accurately logging time and meeting deadlines. - Experience managing projects or components of projects end-to-end, including scoping, scheduling, progress tracking, and delivery. - Excellent organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision. - Strong written and verbal communication skills. Preferred Qualifications - Experience with additional page builders or custom theme development. Familiarity with SaaS websites built on WordPress ecosystems. - Previous freelance or agency experience managing client projects. What We Value We prioritize developers who treat project management and timekeeping as core professional skills. Candidates who can reliably plan their work, keep accurate time records, communicate timelines clearly, and deliver consistently will be considered. This role is ideal for a developer who enjoys building polished, functional websites with Elementor from provided designs and taking ownership of the full project lifecycle from build through delivery.
