Website & Digital Experience Manager NGO Job Fika

Overview

The Role We are looking for a Website & Digital Experience Manager to own fika.org: technically, aesthetically, and strategically. This is not a content entry role. We need someone who understands how websites work at a code level, can see what is not working and fix it, and can take a page from concept to live quickly without cutting corners on quality. The role starts with a significant lift: a comprehensive audit and rebuild of fika.org to improve functionality, user experience, and visual polish. After that foundation is set, the work shifts to ongoing maintenance, updates, and continuous improvement as Fika grows.
