About Spéire
Spéire Innovation is an Irish web design, development, marketing, and digital consultancy agency. We build WordPress, WooCommerce, and Shopify sites for SME and enterprise clients. Our team of ~10 spans development, UX, and digital marketing. We operate a structured, systems-driven delivery process and pride ourselves on giving every client a premium experience regardless of project size.
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Senior Web Project Lead to take ownership of client delivery, running web build projects from kick-off to go-live, managing client relationships, and ensuring quality output. This role exists to free our founding team to focus on business growth, systems, and higher-tier projects. You’ll be the day-to-day point of contact for clients, the person who keeps builds on track, and the quality gate between our team’s work and what ships.
This is not a pure project management role. We need someone who can open Figma, understand a design system, speak confidently about UX decisions, and troubleshoot client requests with pragmatism and good judgement.
Think: part account lead, part design-literate PM, part client whisperer.
What You’ll Do
- Own client relationships across active web build projects, run kick-off calls, weekly check-ins, and present deliverables with confidence
- Manage project timelines, scope, and delivery using our PM tools (Monday.com), keeping builds moving and flagging risks early
- Work within Figma and Relume to review, refine, and brief design work to developers, you don’t need to be a pixel-perfect designer, but you must be able to evaluate and iterate on layouts and UX flows
- Act as the quality gate on all client-facing deliverables: reviewing staging sites, catching UX issues, and ensuring our go-live checklist is met before launch
- Troubleshoot and triage client requests - understand what they’re really asking for, assess feasibility, and coordinate with developers to deliver
- Translate client goals into clear, actionable briefs for the development team
- Manage scope creep diplomatically - protect the team’s time while keeping the client happy
- Contribute to refining our internal delivery processes, templates, and documentation
What We’re Looking ForMust-Haves
- 5–8 years’ experience in web project delivery, digital agency, or client-facing UX/design roles
- Strong working knowledge of WordPress and Shopify ecosystems — you understand themes, plugins, page builders, and e-commerce flows
- Comfortable in Figma: reviewing designs, understanding components and auto-layout, and giving structured feedback to designers
- Proven ability to run client relationships independently - managing expectations, presenting work, and handling difficult conversations
- Solid UX sensibility: you can spot a confusing user flow, a poorly structured page, or an accessibility gap without needing to be told
- Excellent written and verbal English — you’ll be on calls with Irish and UK-based clients
- Experience with project management tools (Monday.com, Asana, or similar)
- Ability to overlap with Irish business hours (GMT/IST) for client calls - full overlap not required, but at least 3–4 hours daily
Nice-to-Haves
- Experience with Relume for sitemap and wireframe workflows
- Familiarity with WooCommerce, ACF/CPT-based builds, or headless architectures
- Background in digital marketing, SEO, or conversion optimisation
- Experience working with AI tools in a design or development workflow
- Exposure to SaaS product environments or multi-tenant platforms
What We Offer
- Competitive salary (depending on experience), open to permanent or long-term contract
- Fully remote role with a collaborative, low-ego team culture
- Opportunity to grow as we scale
- Exposure to SaaS product development alongside client service
