Hours of Work : Full time, 35 hours per week, 12-week Fixed Contract

Location : Remote from where you are happiest (Canadian timezones)

Start Date : December 29, 2023

Closing date : December 13, 2023 @ 5pm PST

The Opportunity

You are an emerging full-stack developer and designer with a creative flair looking for your next exciting challenge with an innovative values-aligned company. Our transformational learning approach turns kids and adults of all ages into leaders of change in their families and communities, and we need your help to tell our story to the world through a new company website. This is a unique opportunity to make a huge impact on our long‑term growth trajectory!

About DreamRider Productions

Over a million kids around the world have laughed, learned and leapt into action to protect the planet after experiencing DreamRider’s highly engaging theatre and interactive media programs. We partner with government agencies, corporate partners and philanthropic foundations to support their sustainability goals through our unique transformational engagement approach. While our award‑winning Planet Protector Academy program has a dedicated product‑focused website, we do not currently have an active website for our company as a whole. As we dream and envision our next big project, we need a new company website that can showcase our 20+ years of engagement and culture change expertise to help us fundraise and garner support for this next exciting chapter!

Our Values

Everything we do is guided by our Cultural Covenant to ensure that we work and grow together in an environment that’s fun, creative, welcoming, meaningful, empowering and inspiring! At the heart of all our work is love and kindness; we do our best to walk our talk, and to learn and grow together. We are on a lifelong organizational anti‑racism, decolonization and anti‑oppression journey. We recognize our interconnectedness with the earth and each other.

The Role

  • You will lead on the development of a new company website for DreamRider to showcase its expertise and experience in engagement and culture change work.
  • You will oversee the entire website creation process from conception to launch, with content writing support from the Executive Producer.
  • You will work with a variety of stakeholders, including the DreamRider team and external stakeholders where appropriate to inform the website’s design and content.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop a comprehensive project plan detailing timelines, milestones, and deliverables to ensure the project is completed on time.
  • Coordinate with DreamRider team and external stakeholders to define project goals, target audience, and desired website functionalities.
  • Design a user‑friendly website layout considering the latest web design trends and DreamRider Productions’ brand identity.
  • Develop the website using appropriate web development technologies (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript, CMS platforms).
  • Ensure the website is responsive and optimized for various devices.
  • Collaborate with the content team to develop engaging and relevant content (text, images, videos) for the website.
  • Implement content management features to allow non‑technical staff to update website.
  • Use SEO best practices to enhance the website’s visibility and search engine ranking.
  • Conduct thorough testing of the website, including functionality, compatibility, and usability tests.
  • Address and resolve any technical issues or bugs before launching.
  • Oversee the website launch ensuring a smooth transition.
  • Monitor website performance post‑launch and make necessary adjustments for optimization.
  • Role Requirements

  • Experience creating visually appealing and user‑friendly website layouts, with a good eye for design and UX / UI principles.
  • Proficiency in front‑end technologies such as HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript.
  • Familiarity with Content Management Systems such as WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal.
  • Knowledge of Search Engine Optimization techniques and best practices.
  • Excellent problem‑solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to present complex technical information to non‑technical audiences.
