Graduate Frontend Developer

We are looking for a Graduate Frontend Developer to help us build the digital tools that support our advisory engagements. This role involves assisting our consulting team as we work with a Dublin-based financial firm to improve their management rhythms and decision-making processes. You will help create and maintain the interfaces that allow these teams to record ownership and track priorities clearly.

About the Role
Olive Tree Consulting works on the friction between strategy and everyday work. Often, we find that organizations lack the simple tools needed to keep their choices visible and their responsibilities clear. You will be building the frontend components of internal products that solve these problems. This is a fully remote position: you will collaborate with our team through clear written communication and focused video calls. The role exists to bridge the gap between our abstract advisory work and the concrete tools our clients use every day.

What You Will Do

• Build and maintain clean, functional user interfaces using React and modern CSS.
• Translate simple wireframes and sketches into responsive web components.
• Write clear, manageable styles that ensure a consistent look and feel across our tools.
• Partner with our consulting team to understand how clients interact with our data and feedback loops.
• Update and refactor existing frontend code to improve performance and readability.
• Test and fix interface issues to ensure a reliable experience for our partners at the Dublin-based financial firm.
• Document your work so that fellow developers and consultants can understand the logic behind the code.
• Participate in small, focused technical reviews to maintain high code quality.

What We Are Looking For

• A foundational understanding of HTML, CSS, and modern JavaScript.
• Basic experience with React or a similar component-based library through coursework or personal projects.
• A preference for simple, practical designs over complex or distracting animations.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills: we value people who can explain technical concepts plainly.
• Comfort working in a fully remote environment where you manage your own schedule and tasks.
• An eye for detail: you notice when alignment is off or when a user flow feels cluttered.
• A willingness to learn how digital tools can improve human management habits.

Helpful Background

• Previous experience with version control systems like Git.
• Personal coding projects or a public repository that shows your interest in web development.
• Familiarity with CSS pre-processors or frameworks that help organize styles.
• An interest in user experience and how people navigate data-heavy interfaces.
• Basic knowledge of how frontend applications communicate with back-end services.

What We Offer
This is a permanent, full-time position that is entirely remote. You will have the opportunity to learn how high-level advisory work is structured and how technology can support better corporate habits. We value focused, quiet work and avoid the habits of constant, unnecessary meetings. The position is paid, and the pay is competitive for the graduate market.

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.
The firm is built on the principle that memory is not a management system. We help teams create the smallest possible written record to support their work so that important follow-up does not depend on who was in the room or who has the best memory. The goal is a quieter management pattern that makes the existing work easier to lead.
