Associate Frontend Developer

We are looking for an Associate Frontend Developer to support our work with a London based investment firm. This role focuses on building clear, functional interfaces that help leadership teams better visualize their internal data and decision processes. It is a full time, fully remote position designed for someone starting their professional career in web development who prefers practical coding over complex corporate structures.

About the Role Olive Tree Consulting helps companies reduce organizational friction. Sometimes the best way to do that is through a custom dashboard or a clean internal tool that replaces a messy spreadsheet. As an Associate Frontend Developer, you will help build these interfaces. You will work alongside our consultants to turn operational logic into user friendly web applications. This is not about making things flashy, but about making things usable and clear for the people who lead large organizations. You will help us ensure that the tools we build are as simple to use as they are helpful to the client business.

What You Will Do

• Write clean and maintainable HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for client facing tools.
• Build responsive web components that function correctly on various screen sizes and devices.
• Collaborate with the team to turn design prototypes into working code.
• Update and maintain existing internal tools used by our clients to track their management rhythms.
• Test interfaces across different browsers to ensure consistent performance and accessibility.
• Help organize our component library to keep our codebase modular and easy to manage.
• Translate feedback from consultants into practical adjustments to the user interface.
• Participate in code reviews to learn from and support other members of the technical team.

What We Are Looking For

• A solid understanding of the fundamentals of web development and how the browser works.
• The ability to explain your technical choices in plain English without relying on jargon.
• High attention to detail when it comes to layout, spacing, and typography.
• A habit of checking your work and testing your code before asking for a review.
• Comfort working in a fully remote environment where clear written communication is essential.
• Curiosity about how businesses work and how software can simplify daily management tasks.
• A patient approach to troubleshooting and fixing small bugs or layout inconsistencies.

Helpful Background

• Familiarity with modern frameworks like React or Vue through personal projects, bootcamps, or studies.
• Experience using Git for version control and basic terminal commands.
• A portfolio or GitHub repository that shows your ability to build functional web pages from scratch.
• Basic understanding of how to connect a frontend to an API and handle data effectively.
• Exposure to CSS styling tools or libraries that help keep stylesheets organized.
• Interest in UI and UX principles that prioritize clarity and user ease over decoration.

What We Offer This is a permanent position that offers a fully remote working environment built on trust and clear expectations. We prioritize deep work and try to reduce unnecessary meeting time so that everyone can focus on their tasks. The pay is competitive and attractive for an entry level role in today’s market. You will receive mentorship from developers and consultants who value practical solutions and clear thinking. Working here means you will be part of a team that values your time and respects the balance between work and life.

About Olive Tree Olive Tree Consulting Group is a focused advisory practice that helps leadership teams solve recurring management issues. We typically work on the space between strategy and daily execution. A team can have very capable people and still find that decisions keep reopening, priorities stall, or responsibility remains unclear. These are rarely personality problems: they are structural habits that have not kept up with the company’s growth.

We favor practical changes over large scale transformation programs. Our work involves looking at how decisions are made, how meetings are run, and how ownership is recorded. We prefer useful written notes and clear ownership over polished presentations and vague alignment. Good advisory work should make things plainer and leave the team with a rhythm they can continue on their own.
