The role is hybrid – with three days in the office, two days at home each week. We are easy to get to know and well connected despite working in a leafy village. We are right by Junction 12 of the M4. Rouge is 5-minutes’ walk from Theale train station, with direct trains to London Paddington. This is NOT a remote role. Please only apply if you can sensibly commute to our office location (RG7) three days per week.

If you think you have the skills, and you fancy joining the team at Rouge, please send us your CV and, most importantly, a portfolio of your latest and greatest website design work.

What’s it like Working at Rouge?

Rouge Media is a digital design and development agency. We have a full range of clients from start-ups to large corporates. We deliver and support WordPress marketing sites, powerful web applications and everything in between. This breadth and range keeps us stable and secure as a business, and the variety keeps day-to-day work exciting and varied.

All our designers and developers work closely as a team. Problems get solved together. We spend time working on our own, but never in isolation.

One of the founding philosophies of the business was to protect a work-life balance. We believe that staying late, night after night, doesn’t mean more work gets done. So we try not to do it. We work hard, but we work efficiently.

We are easy to get to and well connected despite working in a village. We are right by Junction 12 of the M4. Rouge is 5 minutes walk from Theale train station, with direct trains to London Paddington.
