Custom Marketplace Platform

Web developer required to build a custom marketplace platform (on Laravel) similar in functionality to TrustATrader.com and MyJobQuote.co.uk with a strong focus on trust, usability, and scalability.
This includes designing a clean, mobile-responsive interface and developing a full system where tradespeople can register, submit applications with document uploads, and be manually approved before their profiles go live.
The platform must include detailed trader profiles (services, locations, portfolios, and reviews), a customer job posting system, and a structured quote system where traders can respond to jobs.
A key requirement is building a custom workflow that links jobs, quotes, and verified reviews so only genuine customers can leave feedback. The system should also support advanced search and filtering by trade type and location, with Google Maps integration, along with a user-to-user messaging system (incl. WhatsApp integration), automated notifications, and a smart matching system that alerts relevant traders to new jobs.
Integrate recurring payments and subscriptions, multilingual functionality, SEO optimisation, and a comprehensive admin dashboard for managing users, jobs, and reviews.
