THE JOB

Ticketmaster International, a Live Nation Entertainment company, is currently seeking an ambitious, highly motivated, creative, and well-organised Senior Front End Designer and Developer to join the Global Marketing team.
This is a hybrid role within the Global Marketing team, where you will need both excellent design and development skills. You will lead the development of our B2C blogs, editorial websites, landing pages, and campaign assets for our B2C marketing efforts. You will collaborate with international teams to create development briefs for new websites and features, ensuring these align with our brand and marketing KPIs, driving engagement across our fanbase of event-goers.
The Design & Content team is part of the Global Marketing department at Ticketmaster. The role of Senior Front End Designer and Developer is a key player in this team, responsible for developing, designing, and building our digital marketing collateral across multiple platforms, campaigns, products, and ticketing businesses in 31 markets, as well as managing and updating our WordPress sites.
You will work closely with the rest of the Design & Content team, including the Lead Designer, Marketing Designer, and Campaigns & Content Manager. You will also collaborate with senior stakeholders across the international business and other departments, including Product Marketing, Product Development, and Comms teams.
You have several years of experience in web design and development, with a portfolio of innovative websites and marketing deliverables. You can thrive in a dynamic, hybrid role, working alongside various stakeholders and teams, with the opportunity to develop a broad range of skills.
The most important factors we are looking for are: 1) Expert design and development skills; 2) Creativity; 3) Ability to work and think independently; 4) Ability to understand and manage complexity; 5) Ability to problem-solve (nothing is unachievable!); 6) Aptitude for learning; and 7) Managing multiple projects at once.
We are looking for an established web designer/developer who is eager to progress and develop their career across a diverse range of projects in a fast-moving team. You’ll see your work used across 25+ countries, reaching over 50 million fans a year, while enjoying a great and supportive working environment.
You have a proven capacity for delivering beautiful and functional websites that people love, as well as establishing effective design styles within brand guidelines. You understand the importance of brand consistency and confidently advise stakeholders on a variety of brand design projects. You also act as a brand guardian when required.
WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING
Lead the development, maintenance, and updates of our B2C Blogs, Fan Guides, and Trust websites (WordPress sites) across 31 international markets, ensuring they are consistently up-to-date, aligned with brand guidelines, and that content and technical changes are implemented as needed in collaboration with international teams.
Create detailed briefs for WordPress developers to build new websites from scratch or implement new features based on international marketing input, ensuring all requirements are clear and aligned with business goals.
Work on the design and development of various B2B and B2C marketing deliverables for all our markets, such as WordPress microsites, marketing landing pages for campaigns, and product launches. These assets must easily be translated across our markets.
Provide first-line support for international markets, troubleshooting WordPress issues and escalating complex problems to external developers when necessary.
Take technical ownership of the front-end code and follow development best practices.
Stay informed on the latest WordPress developments, ensuring sites are always using the most up-to-date plugins, features, and security practices.
Create instructions, guides, and tutorials for international markets to use WordPress tools and templates we provide, enabling local teams to make minor updates independently.
Ensure all design and development is consistent with our corporate brand and technical guidelines.
Offer design and technical front-end support to markets when needed. Our markets don’t have developers locally, so you will be the strategic lead on marketing dev output, advising and troubleshooting for local marketing teams.
Help improve design processes and documentation standards via building strong relationships with other designers across the business (sales, product, and marketing).
Make actionable and measurable design decisions that drive key business priorities, prioritising your workload according to business needs.
Find the best solutions to provide a great user brand experience across multiple touchpoints, always appraising and improving upon previous work.
Keep skills fresh and stay informed of industry best practices, as well as technical and design trends.
