Accessibility Consultant: The Accessibility Consultant is responsible for making sure that the website is accessible for all users.

Front-end Developer: The Front-end Developer is responsible for building the front-end of the website according to the design specifications - this usually involves writing custom CSS, HTML and sometimes Javascript, depending on the needs of the organisation.
Project Manager: The Project Manager oversees the creation of the new website. Assigning tasks to team members, liaising between the organisation and the team, and keeping tabs on the team’s progress are all required tasks of the Project Manager. The Project Manager will also be put in touch with the non-profit organisation before the event in order to make preliminary plans and to get a better idea of the project requirements.
Quality Assurance Tester: The Quality Assurance Tester is responsible for making sure that the website meets all the visual and accessibility requirements that the non-profit organisation needs. Of equal importance is making sure that the new website works correctly – ensuring that all interactive elements function as they should, there are no broken links, and anything else that is required for the website to look and act in the way that the organisation expects.
Social Media Manager: The Social Media Manager is responsible for setting up any required social media accounts and assisting with getting content flowing on them. The role also includes training the non-profit organisation on how to use their social media accounts and how best to integrate them with their new website.
