PHP specialists only

Recruiters are filtered by proven PHP placements — Laravel, Symfony, WordPress, Drupal.

Skill-verified candidates

Every shortlisted CV comes with an AI skill-match rationale.

Transparent pricing

Standard 15–20% placement fee, negotiated directly with the recruiter you choose.

Which PHP framework are you hiring for?

The best recruiter for a Laravel SaaS build is not the best recruiter for a WordPress agency team. FindHire matches your role to recruiters with verified placements in your specific framework.

  • Laravel — for modern SaaS, APIs, and internal tools
  • Symfony — for enterprise-grade PHP with strict architecture
  • WordPress / WooCommerce — for content and e-commerce
  • Drupal — for large content platforms and government
  • Legacy PHP — for maintenance and modernization projects

Typical PHP hires on FindHire

Senior Laravel engineers, WordPress theme/plugin developers, headless commerce specialists, PHP tech leads, and full-stack PHP + Vue/React engineers. Contract or permanent — you set the terms.

Salary benchmarks

Senior PHP developers in the US average $110–140k; in the EU €55–80k; in the UK £55–75k. Remote-first roles typically pay 5–15% below local senior rates.
