Frontend Web Developer (GSAP / Web Animations Specialist)

Location: Remote (work from anywhere)

Start: As soon as possible

Duration: Until end of August 2025, with potential for further collaboration

The client seeks a talented Frontend Web Developer with expertise in GSAP and frontend animation to support the development of multiple web projects over the coming weeks. The role is a remote freelance engagement, suitable for someone with an excellent eye for interaction and animation, and experience delivering high-quality frontend components in tight timeframes.

Project Scope & Background

The client is actively developing two websites – Impact and MDC – both of which must be completed by the end of August 2025. A third website is in early planning, and several smaller tasks may also require support, including:

• Frontend structure and component development for both main websites
• GSAP animation implementation
• Potential involvement in:
• 
  
  • Career section updates for a public sector website
  • Translation content integration for a digital health project (simple content placement)
  • Full website build if required as contingency

The initial frontend structure for the Impact site is already in progress (colors, fonts, boxes, buttons), and animation support will be needed soon. The MDC site is now designed and expected to be smaller in scope than initially planned.

Key Responsibilities

• Implement animated frontend components using GSAP and modern JavaScript frameworks
• Collaborate closely with the internal team on structure, style, and animation flows
• Work with existing designs and wireframes to produce clean, responsive layouts
• Possibly assist in simple site content tasks (e.g., adding translations)
• Be available on short notice and able to work autonomously with minimal oversight

Requirements

• Demonstrable experience with GSAP and web animation best practices
• Strong frontend development skills: HTML, CSS (SASS), JavaScript
• Experience working with design systems or following UI/UX guidelines
• Ability to pick up and contribute to ongoing projects quickly
• Strong communication skills and remote collaboration experience
• WordPress knowledge is a bonus, but not required

Additional Details

• All work is fully remote – applicants may be based anywhere
• Start date: Immediate
• Commitment: Estimated through August 2025, with flexibility depending on deliverables
• Potential for further freelance work on future builds or sections
