WordPress Jobs
WordPress Jobs is a job site for WordPress developers, designers, content writers, translators, and more. It is hosted by WordPress and allows anyone to post WordPress-related job opportunities for free.
WordPress was founded in 2005. While it lacks a dedicated U.K. site or page, U.K. employers will be able to post vacancies and attract both local and remote WordPress experts. However, U.K. employers may struggle to find local candidates for in-house positions.
Pricing:
Employers and job seekers use WordPress Jobs at no cost since it is officially affiliated with the open-source WordPress site where everyone can create a website, blog, or app for free.
