Description

Who we are CreateFuture is fast becoming the UK’s most recognisable digital consultancy, with years of experience building digital products and services for major organisations whilst putting our people first. We have offices in the centre of Edinburgh, Leeds, Manchester, and London as well as remote employees located throughout the country. We are a team of creators - whether that’s code, project plans, go to market strategies, culture initiatives, marketing campaigns, large language models or people policies. And together, with our clients, we create the future. This has seen us collaborate and partner across a multitude of industries and sectors, with the likes of PayPal, Adidas, NatWest, FanDuel and Money Saving Expert to name just a few. Our reputation as a partner determined to deliver high-quality, robust and thoughtful products has enabled us to scale to over 500 people in the last couple of years, and it is our amazing people - along with the safe, supportive and friendly culture we have built - that makes CreateFuture a great place to work. Don’t just take our word for it though, we have been recognised by Best Workplaces UK multiple years in a row - across a number of categories - and our employee exit rate is astonishingly low. Join us on our journey… Let’s create something awesome, together, today. About the Role You’ll lead delivery across Google Tag Manager and front-end integrations, ensuring data is collected accurately and responsibly. You’ll build high quality features in React, set strong technical standards, and help clients make informed decisions with clarity and confidence. Beyond implementation, you’ll contribute to infrastructure and deployment workflows using tools like Terraform and Kubernetes. You’ll collaborate directly with stakeholders, turning technical detail into strategic impact — and spotting opportunities for improvement along the way. What You Bring Deep experience with Google Tag Manager — configuration, debugging, optimisation. Strong React and front-end engineering skills. Awareness of consent platforms and privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, ePrivacy). Exposure to Terraform and Kubernetes. Confidence in consulting environments — able to simplify the complex and build trust. Curious, adaptable, and comfortable working in ambiguity. Experience with MarTech tools (Firebase, Google Ads, Meta, Criteo). Knowledge of A/B testing frameworks and analytics integrations. Prior experience in regulated or consumer-facing industries. What we'll offer you: At CreateFuture, we challenge ourselves to go beyond the obvious and we care deeply about our craft and customers. With us, you’ll have ambitious projects to sink your teeth into and plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. You’ll be part of our safe, supportive and friendly culture - that looks after you - and join our team of genuinely great people. Our benefits include: Total 35 days holiday (we have flexible bank holidays) Comprehensive private medical insurance Enhanced parental and adoption leave Pension - matched up to 5% As this is a hybrid role, focussing on Edinburgh we’re looking for people within a commuting distance of our Edinburgh office and who are flexible to travel to client sites and CreateFuture regional offices. We are very flexible and trust you to manage your own schedule to balance face-to-face time with clients, colleagues and working from home. We create and reinforce a culture that rewards employees’ impact, not just activity. We trust our employees to work autonomously and promote ownership across all levels. Next steps: Our Talent team aims to respond to all applications within a reasonable timeframe, regardless of whether or not we progress your application. Our interview process: 30-minute call with one of our Talent Acquisition Team. 90-minute Technical interview 60-minute values-led interview. Our interview process is designed as an opportunity both for our interviewers to learn about your expertise, interests and motivations and for you to gain insights into the role, team and business as a whole, so throughout the process, you’ll meet a few people from our team as well as others from across the business to help you get a well-rounded view of the role and life at CreateFuture. We believe that representative teams made up of people with different backgrounds, skills, and points of view help us build the best workplace possible, and enable us to create genuinely innovative, broadly useful products.
