WordPress Web Developer (Elementor) - Freelance, Remote

About the Client

Our client is a senior-led consulting firm specializing in enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, helping mid-market finance and operations teams navigate growth, complexity, and ongoing system stewardship. They offer a mix of subscription-based support and outcome-based project delivery, working with finance teams that run multi-entity operations, complex billing models, and critical system integrations. The company has an established track record with recognizable mid-market and enterprise clients, and prides itself on senior-level expertise, clear documentation, and responsive service.

About the Role

This role exists because the client's internal team is currently stretched thin trying to maintain and update their WordPress/Elementor website themselves, leading to ad-hoc updates that take too long or don't get done, and real risk of breaking existing pages when non-specialists attempt changes. They need a dedicated, reliable specialist to own website updates and enhancements so the internal team no longer has to context-switch or fight with Elementor. This hire will become the go-to person for new sections, landing pages, and content publishing, working within the existing site to improve and extend it—not rebuild it.

Responsibilities

• Modify and improve existing WordPress pages by updating copy, imagery, sections, and layouts while aligning with the existing design system and brand guidelines.
• Implement updates without breaking current flows, layouts, or features.
• Design and implement new sections and full pages inside Elementor, extending or duplicating existing layouts cleanly instead of reinventing structures.
• Propose implementation options when requirements are loosely defined.
• Publish and format blog posts and other content updates.
• Maintain the content library by removing outdated items, fixing broken links, and adjusting navigation as needed.
• Ensure every change is fully responsive across desktop, tablet, and mobile.
• Test updates to confirm no regressions or broken functionality.
• Troubleshoot layout issues and minor front-end bugs related to page structure.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to clarify requirements and communicate timelines clearly.
• Proactively propose UX/layout improvements when opportunities are spotted.
• Provide regular status updates, respond promptly during working hours, and flag blockers early.

Requirements

• Strong, proven hands-on WordPress experience.
• Deep, hands-on Elementor experience building new sections and editing/extending existing layouts.
• Solid understanding of responsive web design and mobile-first best practices.
• Ability to troubleshoot layout issues and minor front-end bugs related to page structure.
• Availability for at least 5 hours/week overlapping U.S. Eastern Time.

Skills

• Technical Skills:
  • Deep, hands-on Elementor expertise (sections, layouts, cloning/extending existing structures).
  • Strong general WordPress skills—comfortable working within an existing site rather than building from scratch.
  • Understanding of responsive/mobile-first design principles.
  • Ability to diagnose and fix minor front-end/layout bugs.
  • Working knowledge of on-page SEO basics (meta tags, alt text, internal linking) a plus.
  • Comfort with light copy/layout refinement (headings, spacing, visual hierarchy) a plus.
• Soft Skills:
  • Highly responsive and reliable—replies promptly and doesn’t let requests go stale.
  • Detail-oriented, especially when it comes to not breaking what already works.
  • Strong written communicator who can give clear, concise async updates.
  • Comfortable interpreting loose requirements and proposing solutions rather than waiting for exact specs.
  • Proactive—flags blockers early rather than letting them sit.

Work Setup

• Must have a reliable internet connection and a quiet workspace.
• Required to provide own computer with at least 8GB RAM, an Intel i5 core processor/AMD Ryzen 5 Processor or higher.
• Internet speed of at least 40MBPS.
