WordPress Designer, Gutenberg-Focused (Part-time, Contractor Role)

Cornershop Creative (https://cornershopcreative.com) is seeking a talented, U.S.-based, part-time WordPress Designer to join our fully remote team. We build beautiful, modern websites for nonprofits and small businesses. We’re looking for someone with a great design eye, solid WordPress experience, and a love for building sites with the Gutenberg block editor — no page builders, no bloated themes. What You’ll Do • Design clean, engaging websites for mission-driven clients • Build and style WordPress themes using the block editor (e.g., Blocksy or Kadence) • Interpret client goals and turn them into user-friendly layouts • Populate and structure site content (yes, content migration is part of this) • Ensure design and brand consistency throughout each site You’ll work closely with project managers, developers, and other team members to bring websites to life. We envision this as a junior-level position, ideal for someone early in their career but with a strong foundation in web design. What We’re Looking For • Strong design skills — if you can’t make things look good, this isn’t the job for you • Experience with Gutenberg-based themes like Blocksy or Kadence • Confidence building content-rich pages using the block editor • Solid understanding of HTML5 and CSS • Awareness of accessibility, performance, and front-end best practices • Ability to juggle multiple projects and adjust quickly • Comfortable working independently and asking questions when needed • A sense of humor — telling bad jokes is basically a job requirement • Won’t lose your s#!% if you occasionally get feedback like “can we make the logo bigger?” or “change the padding by 1px,” which may happen despite our best efforts • Passion for nonprofits and making the web a better place Rate: • $45/hour • 10-20 hours/week, though actual hours may vary based on need and availability Apply Job!
