Job Description

OSP are looking for a Junior Frontend Developer to join our small, friendly product team working on a modern, high-impact digital application. This is an ideal role for someone early in their career who’s excited to build real-world products, learn from experienced developers, and grow their frontend skills in a supportive environment.

 

You’ll work on React-based frontends, collaborating closely with designers, developers, and product stakeholders, and be willing to communicate effectively with the wider team. 

 

What you’ll be doing

  • Building and improving UI components using React and modern Typescript
  • Turning designs and wireframes into responsive, user-friendly interfaces
  • Working with APIs to display data in the frontend (with guidance and support)
  • Fixing bugs, making small enhancements, and gradually taking ownership of features
  • Taking part in code reviews, team discussions, and agile ceremonies 


Essential

  • Front-End Basics: A working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and Javascript
  • Practical React Exposure: Some hands-on experience with React (through a job role, placement, bootcamp, degree, or personal projects)
  • Curiosity and Keen Learner: Enthusiastic about developing your skills and open to feedback
  • Team Player: Comfortable working with colleagues across the business and asking questions when you’re unsure
  • Problem-Solving Mindset: Able to think logically through UI challenges, even if you don’t yet know the perfect solution


Desirable

  • Basic TypeScript familiarity
  • Using modern frontend tooling/libraries such as Vite, Tailwind CSS, or MaterialUI
  • Experience consuming APIs or working with asynchronous data
  • Some awareness of responsive design and accessibility
  • Familiarity with Git and basic version control workflows


What we offer

  • Hybrid-working opportunities
  • Support and mentorship from experienced developers
  • The chance to work on real products
  • Opportunities to grow your skills and take on more responsibility over time as the role develops 
  • A collaborative, respectful team environment where learning is encouraged

 

This is a full-time role working in our Bournemouth office. After an initial probation period, there is scope to move to a hybrid working model.

 

The interview process will be in three stages:

  1. First round: interview with HR Director to check communication skills and compatibility with OSP.
  2. Second round: interview with members of our development team.
  3. Third round: in-person interview with Managing Director at Bournemouth offices
