Summary
As our Front-End and Power Platform Developer you will play a key role in enabling
the AA to fully gain the maximum benefit from our data and content management
system back-ends, creating and maintaining excellent user experiences through
interfaces, layouts and interactions built to AA designs and style guidelines. Your work
will be key to ensuring that a rich range of data and content can be experienced and
interacted with by users through web pages which reflect AA design whilst also
meeting high standards of usability and accessibility.
You will collaborate closely with our Design Studio and IT team (especially their
‘Database and Power Platform Developer’) to ensure that not only are our web pages
accessible, stylish and fitting to our designs, but that they are integrated effectively
with our underlying data and systems. You will develop existing and new Power
Platform based web pages (primarily using Power Portals and Power Pages) which
integrate with Dynamics 365 and our Microsoft Dataverse, but also pages and website
front-ends which largely use API-based Content Management Systems and ReactJS.
The post is based in the small Digital Platforms team which holds responsibility for the
development, management and maintenance of the school’s websites and several
internal digital administration systems. Under the management of the Head of Digital
Platforms you will work collaboratively within the team’s ‘agile’ approach to workflow
alongside permanent and consultant full stack web developers. An open and positive
team player, you will communicate effectively not just within the team but also with
other colleagues and stakeholders to ensure that your development work meets
considered and exhaustive requirements.
What we offer:
We offer a wide range of staff benefits, including up to 40 days’ leave per annum, in
addition to Bank Holiday, a defined pension scheme, season ticket loans and access
to professional development opportunities.
You will also be able to take part and be involved in a creative and unique teaching
environment, where the students display their amazing work with various on-site
exhibitions, public programmes and lectures.
Our Bedford Square campus is based just a 5-minute walk from Tottenham Court
Road station, right in the heart of Central London.
