Email & CRM Developer

Media/Marketing/SEO
Cape Town – Western Cape – South Africa

If you’ve ever fixed a rendering bug in Outlook and lived to tell the tale – keep reading.
 
This role is made for someone who gets the quirks of email development, thrives on clean code, and triple-checks their work before it lands in a client’s inbox.
You’ll be the person turning design files into responsive, mobile-friendly, bulletproof emails. You’ll also work on in-app messages, SMS templates, and the occasional landing page – all tied to high-volume CRM campaigns.
You won’t just write code. You’ll make sure what goes out looks good everywhere, works flawlessly, and lands with impact.
