Junior Frontend Developer Full Time NEW

We are hiring a Junior Frontend Developer to build internal tools that support our work for a major UK infrastructure group as it expands its reach. This role focuses on turning complex financial datasets into clear, interactive interfaces that our principals and clients use to evaluate high stakes capital decisions.

About Blue Oak Consulting
Blue Oak Consulting provides independent advisory on pricing, portfolio economics, capital allocation, and acquisition assumptions. We are not a traditional consulting firm focused on broad transformation programs or high level strategy decks. Instead, we interrogate specific commercial decisions where the financial stakes are high and the existing narrative is not sufficient. Our team looks past corporate language and P&L complexity to identify where value is leaking or capital is trapped. We work across sectors like software, manufacturing, and healthcare to test whether the assumptions behind a growth plan or an acquisition actually hold under pressure. We are a small, principal led firm where the people who do the work are the ones accountable for the results. We do not take transaction contingent fees, which allows us to be completely honest about whether the economics of a decision make sense. Our goal is to provide clarity through financial discipline and a healthy amount of skepticism.

The Role
As a Junior Frontend Developer, you will work within a small, remote team to develop functional web applications that visualize complex financial models. This is not a role for standard marketing sites. You will be building tools that help our consultants and clients find flaws in growth plans and test the durability of pricing strategies. You will spend your time translating analytical requirements into clean code, ensuring that data is presented accurately and intuitively. Since we work in a fully remote environment, you will have a high degree of autonomy but will collaborate closely with our principals to ensure the software remains grounded in financial reality.

What You Will Be Doing

• Developing and maintaining web based dashboards for visualizing infrastructure project economics and capital allocation models.
• Working with senior consultants to understand user requirements and translating these needs into functional UI components.
• Writing clean, documented JavaScript and CSS to ensure our internal tools remain fast and reliable.
• Testing application interfaces to ensure data integrity is maintained across different scenarios and user inputs.
• Refining existing tools to handle larger datasets as our engagement with the UK infrastructure group expands.
• Collaborating through video calls and digital documentation to keep development cycles moving in a remote setting.
• Troubleshooting frontend issues and improving the overall stability of our software tools.
• Ensuring that all visual elements are consistent with our brand focus on clarity and precision.

What You Bring

• A basic understanding of modern frontend technologies like React, Vue, or similar JavaScript frameworks.
• Familiarity with HTML and CSS, with an eye for clear and simple layouts rather than flashy design.
• Experience with version control tools such as Git for managing code updates.
• A curious mindset and the desire to understand the logic behind the financial data you are visualizing.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to explain technical decisions to colleagues who focus on finance.
• A disciplined approach to self management while working in a fully remote capacity.
• Great attention to detail, noticing when numbers or visual elements do not align as expected.
• Completion of a technical degree, bootcamp, or equivalent projects in web development that demonstrate your skills.

What We Offer

• A permanent, full time position with competitive pay that reflects the professional nature of our firm and the current market.
• A fully remote working setup that provides flexibility and removes the need for commuting.
• The opportunity to work directly with senior principals who are experts in financial advisory.
• Meaningful work on high stakes projects, such as our current expansion within the UK infrastructure sector.
• A focused, professional work culture that values technical precision over corporate theater.
• Hands on learning experience building software that serves specific, high value commercial decisions.
• Exposure to a wide range of industries through our diverse client engagements.

Working at Blue Oak Consulting means focusing on facts and rejecting the filler that often clutters business decisions. We value developers who are not just interested in writing code but are genuinely curious about how software can provide clarity in complex financial environments. This is a chance to start your career in an environment where your work has a direct link to high stakes outcomes. We stay through the execution phase of our advice because decisions that look sound in theory often fail when they face real world friction, and our tools are a large part of why we succeed in those stages.
