HAVAS LYNX is a global communications group with 250 employees - supported by the wider HAVAS network; we deliver truly global campaigns based on robust local insight and as a group, we are proud to have been responsible for a series of industry firsts. We innovate on behalf of our clients across the healthcare sector and we are proud winners of prestigious awards for effectiveness and innovation. More important than the awards however, is the recognition that campaign activity originated and driven by our teams has a huge impact on the lives of hundreds of patients. We now have an exciting opportunity for a Front End Developer to join our Manchester based team.

We are proud winners of prestigious awards for effectiveness and innovation, and as part of our planned growth for 2014, we're looking for an experienced Front-end Developer to join our busy and expanding digital team. Ideally you'll have gained experience from a Creative agency. You'll need to be an experienced programmer who's fluent in HTML and CSS and who's skilled in functionality scripts like JavaScript and jQuery as well as all aspects of SEO. You'll have a strong portfolio of work which demonstrates your skills in these areas and which shows us your potential.

Like us, you'll be fanatical about developing great user experiences (both online and offline) and be able to pick up new technology with a real thirst for learning. We're looking for a creative thinker - a problem solver, someone who wants to work with like-minded professionals in a supportive environment. We're looking for a candidate who has experience of working to lead and mentor other team members, so would like to see some examples of this in your current role. You'll work on exciting projects for national and international clients, producing an array of digital outputs that stand out amongst the crowd.

Based in the heart Manchester City Centre, we enjoy a busy, sociable team environment. Personality is key, and we're looking for a team player with excellent initiative, issues resolution and problem solving skills who remains calm under pressure and has bags of energy. It is really important that you have your own opinion and ideas, and the confidence to share them.

To apply for this opportunity, send your CV, a covering letter and links to your recent work to or call on for an initial, informal conversation.
