About the Role
As a Technical Web Specialist, you’ll be the connective tissue between our web team and the rest of the business. This role exists because great websites aren’t just built — they’re coordinated, prioritised, and protected from chaos. Sitting at the intersection of Marketing and Web Development, you’ll own the intake and lifecycle of web requests, ensure every project is properly scoped before it touches the dev queue, and support the team in delivering an ambitious web roadmap.
But this role doesn’t stop at coordination. You’ll also be hands-on in the quality of what we ship — reviewing copy and UX before pages go live, supporting CRO initiatives, and acting as a critical second pair of eyes on every significant release. You care as much about whether a page converts as whether it launches on time.
If you’re someone who thrives on bringing order to complexity, understands how a website is actually built, and can hold your own in a room with developers, designers, and marketers alike, this is your role.
What You’ll Do
Technical Ownership & QA
- Build and ship pages/components directly in Storyblok CMS: component configuration, staging, QA, and production deployment across market versions
- QA every release technically — rendering, functionality, and cross-browser/device behaviour, not just copy and visual polish
- Use AI tools as a core part of daily production work (drafting, layout variants, QA support), and know where AI output still needs a human check, particularly around localisation nuance and experiment validity
Request Triage & Scoping
- Own intake for web requests: qualify, triage, and estimate technical complexity and dependencies before anything is scoped or scheduled
- Enforce briefing standards and know enough technically to explain why a brief is incomplete
- Decide what can be handled directly vs. what needs to go to the development team, and write specs the team can act on without excessive clarification
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Project Coordination
- Act as day-to-day PM between the development team and business stakeholders: track scope, delivery, and risk
- Maintain the web backlog and sprint board with clear status, ownership, and blockers
- Support CRO initiatives: help build A/B test setups, document hypotheses, and track experiment results
Process & Reporting
- Maintain intake templates, briefing standards, and triage criteria
- Produce regular status updates and pipeline reports for the Head of Web and wider leadership
What We’re Looking For
Must-haves
- 2 to 4 years in a web operations, technical/digital project management, or web production role, ideally with hands-on CMS or front-end exposure — not purely marketing coordination
- Working technical literacy: solid HTML/CSS fundamentals, understanding of how a CMS is structured (Storyblok, Contentful, Webflow or similar), staging vs. production workflows, and what a QA process actually checks
- Comfortable using AI tools hands-on in production (prompting for drafts, QA’ing AI output) and able to articulate where AI isn’t reliable enough to trust unsupervised
- Product/project-management instincts: can scope a request, size complexity, sequence competing priorities, and brief external developers with minimal hand-holding
- Confident translating between technical and non-technical stakeholders, and comfortable pushing back on a brief or a deadline when needed
- Strong written communication: a clear brief, a precise QA note, a concise status update
Nice to have
- Hands-on experience with Storyblok or a comparable headless CMS
- Familiarity with web analytics or conversion tracking concepts
- Exposure to A/B testing/CRO tools, or basic SQL
- Experience briefing or QA’ing a development team
- Basic understanding of Core Web Vitals / page performance
- Familiarity with SEO fundamentals as they intersect with web production
