What good looks like
Agree how requests are raised and prioritised. Useful measures include changes released to your timetable, page speed and mobile checks recorded before and after edits, and a site with tested backups and current updates.
Define who approves design and copy, who signs off before a change goes live and what the developer should escalate.
Assess the right fit
Our catalogue candidates are reviewed and interviewed by our team.
Discuss experience with your platform, theme and plugins. Ask the candidate to explain how they diagnose a slow page, test a plugin update and recover a site after a bad change.
Agree a short technical exercise with our team, using a sample site or fictional content, and ask for a walkthrough of past work. Give least-privilege access, only what the role needs, and make sure changes to the live site follow your review process.

How do I fill my Web Developer role in the Philippines?
Start with a brief for your Web Developer role: the responsibilities they will own, the systems they will use and the working hours you need to overlap with your team in New Zealand or Australia. Meet candidates against that brief and agree the total monthly cost before choosing a start date.
With Ramp Remote, we employ and support your person in the Philippines. You provide the business context, set priorities and review their work. Start with one clear responsibility and a named manager, then expand the role as the handover takes hold.
Before you hire.
What the monthly price includesThe starting price is a guide for a full-time hire in the Philippines. Your quote confirms the total for your chosen person, agreed hours and service arrangements.
- Experience and scope: specialist skills, seniority and the responsibilities you need affect the price.
- Hours and coverage: agree the working week, time-zone overlap and any evening or weekend needs.
- What is included: ask for the breakdown of employment costs, our service, equipment and any one-off charges, with currency and applicable taxes stated.
We confirm these details before you commit. The starting price is not a fixed quote for every candidate.
Timing depends on the brief, candidate availability, interviews and any notice period. We will agree the next update and a target start date with you once those details are clear. If the right person is not currently available, we can recruit to your brief.
- Set the access: agree admin roles, a staging copy, the backup routine and who approves changes to the live site.
- Handover one change: work through a small update together from request to release, including testing on staging.
- Review the first release cycle: check quality, page speed and documentation, then agree the ongoing request process.
You can discuss a role without committing to a hire. Before proceeding, review your written quote and agreement for payment timing, currency and taxes, notice requirements, the support included and what happens if the hire is not the right fit.
We will confirm replacement arrangements and any conditions in your agreement before you proceed.
