Job Description
Laravel Developer
Salary, £35,000 to £45,000
Location, Norwich outskirts, Norfolk, hybrid working with two to three days per week in the office
If you are currently building fairly standard PHP or WordPress sites and want to step into something more technically involved, this is your opportunity to work on complex, logic driven platforms in a high growth online entertainment environment.
CloudScope is exclusively recruiting for a Laravel Developer to join a specialist agency in the online entertainment and gaming space. The business is actively transitioning its core systems from WordPress into Laravel, and they are looking for a permanent developer to take ownership of that evolution.
This is not a maintenance role. It is a build and improve environment where your decisions will influence architecture, scalability and long term platform direction.
What makes this role genuinely interesting:
* You will lead the move from WordPress into Laravel
* You will work on interactive, logic heavy platforms rather than static websites
* You will influence architecture and technical standards
* You will gain exposure to systems with multiple integrations and real transactional complexity
* You will work in a commercially driven environment where platform performance matters
* You will join through a CloudScope exclusive opportunity with a unique commercial structure
In this role, you will:
* Build and develop Laravel based applications as the platform evolves
* Refactor and migrate existing WordPress functionality into modern Laravel architecture
* Develop interactive user journeys with multiple logic paths and integrations
* Ensure performance, scalability and clean code standards
* Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders on feature delivery and improvements
* Contribute to long term platform strategy and technical decisions
* Your work will directly shape how the platform scales, performs and supports continued growth.
You will likely be a strong fit if you bring:
* Commercial Laravel experience
* Strong PHP fundamentals and understanding of modern development principles
* Some WordPress experience, particularly where legacy systems are involved
* Confidence working with complex logic flows and integrations
* A proactive mindset and desire to improve systems, not just maintain them
* The ability to work independently while remaining collaborative
This role is based on the outskirts of Norwich, approximately a 20 minute drive from Norwich city centre. Due to the location, you will require access to a car. The position offers hybrid working with two to three days per week in the office.
If you are ready to move into a Laravel role where you can build, influence and grow technically rather than simply maintain, CloudScope would be keen to speak with you.
