Web Developer (JavaScript Frameworks: Vue/React/Angular, Typescript, Ruby/Rails, PHP, GCP, Azure) Wakefield, England
Job description
Every business knows that a passionate workforce is infinitely more productive than one packed with people counting down the seconds, from nine to five. But how do you get employees genuinely fired up about work? Well, that’s where we come in. And we’re pretty damn good at it as well. But if you think that employee happiness is all beanbags and beer fridges, stop reading and move on. This role isn’t for you.
Here at Gallagher – Employee Experience & Communication, we’re much more than emails and home mailers. We’re driving behavioural change, at scale, for some of the biggest household names on the planet. From high street fashion brands to global tech giants, we find creative ways to take each unique workforce and transform it into a force of nature.
