5 days ago43 proposalsRemoteRedevelopment of Shopify Site/Theme
Hi, I’m Rob, the Ecommerce Manager here at Optimum Medical. We’re looking for someone to help us fully redevelop and rebuild our Shopify based ecommerce website, vyne.co.uk. And the potential to work on continued maintenance and development together in the future. For context, Optimum Medical is a medical device manufacturer based in Leeds, UK - successfully exporting a range of medical devices to over 70 countries around the world. Vyne is a standalone brand of Optimum Medical, focusing on the dispensing and distributing of medical products – mainly through its DAC function. Vyne is a Dispensing Appliance Contractor, in common terms, you’ll hear it called a ‘home delivery service’. We are licensed to process prescriptions for medical devices, dispense these and deliver them directly to patient homes. Patients and clinicians can order prescriptions through our Vyne Online portal, and now our new Vyne Online app. This can be thought of similarly to an online pharmacy, but solely for medical devices instead of medication. Alongside the DAC function we have Vyne Shop (this project!) – which is an ecommerce site built on Shopify. In April Vyne Shop will have been operating for 2 years. We stock over 1000 SKUs (and counting) within the Bladder & Bowel, Stoma, Skincare, Lubrication, Bandages, and Incontinence Pads categories. Many of the products we sell can be prescribed, along with many other products which are not part of the NHS Drug Tariff. Generally customers are using Vyne Shop to purchase medical product which aren’t available on prescription, like better quality fixation devices for example. Some customers are using Vyne Shop for products which aren’t available in their area, or to try out a new product before speaking with their clinician to get the item on prescription. Vyne Shop operates as revenue source for the business, but is also a great lead source for the DAC. We’re looking to redevelop/rebuild the Vyne site, including 9 custom landing pages and all Shopify functionality, such as the navigation, category, collection, product, basket, and blog pages. Site design and functionality has been mocked up in Figma and is ready to hand over to you! Design assets will be provided in the format you require, and a full brief will be sent over upon agreement. Our current site uses a lot of third party apps to function which ultimately makes it quite slow. Instead of relying on third party apps, we’re looking to use Shopify native apps like, Search & Discovery, Bundles, Forms, and Subscriptions – and replace other third party app functionality with custom code. Required Experience: • Prior experience and examples of custom Shopify site/theme builds or development • Experience implementing Shopfiy native and third part apps • Experience building custom Shopify pages • Experience working with SME on a freelance basis • Ability to work agile, with regular catchups with us throughout the project. • Ability to collaborate with our in house IT & Graphic design teams when required I look forward to working with you! Many thanks,
