I run an SEO business and my current developers are tasked to the gills and I hate turning down clients because I don't have the bandwidth.
Essentially, I want a local (Vancouver BC only - won't respond to anyone outside of Vancouver) developer with an understanding of on-page SEO best practices who is available to work on website design for up and coming clients. Ideally, this candidate would have the availability to provide a one-month turnaround time on new website development, but also be available for smaller gigs that include manipulating code for plug-in installation, custom CSS work, canonical redirects, and more. For example, common issues that I come across are REALTORS looking for a new website, but require IDX feed installation so that they receive up to date MLS listings.
Must be expert level with respect to Wordpress development/design as most client requests are for WordPress sites.
As I charge clients a 50% deposit to start a project with the 50% balance due upon completion, the same would be afforded to you. That way you never begin a project without cash in hand. The rate that goes to you is normally $40-50 per hour, which I may or may not mark-up depending on how hands-on I need to be. Development/design projects usually end up in the $1500-3000 CAD (to you) zone but can go higher. At the same time, there are some low end clients that want $500-800 5 or 6-page sites, so if you can swing that too that's a bonus.
I simply need a backup person I can call upon when a project comes up. If you have that flexibility and don't need to pay the rent this month based on regularity of work, then we can talk. That being said, work does come up quite often as I am doing a full court press to ramp up business.
Last requirement - you gotta be laid back and easy to work with. Clients range from artisans in Hawaii to skateboard shops in Vancouver and construction businesses in Alberta. It's a mixed bag. I work in flip flops as much as the weather allows so don't dare show up in a tie if we meet soon ;)
To see if the relationship will work, there is a site I need this month, a basic eCommerce gig (7-page site to sell t-shirts) for $700. Again, if you aren't in Vancouver, I won't reply (way too many out-of-town responses last time - had to turn off notifications)
