  • You're a dynamic and adaptable individual, able to use and learn new skills in varying circumstances.

  • You'll be curious about technology and understanding how things work.

  • As a leader and motivator you'll nurture team members to create a robust team culture.

  • And you'll influence positively - demonstrating the right values and behaviours and encouraging this in team members.

 

We'll be specifically looking for these skills on your CV:

  • Solid understanding of the entire software development lifecycle and experience in end to end delivery of software products.

  • Extensive experience with agile development methods & tooling e.g. Scrum, Kanban, Jira & Confluence, and experience of leading & working as part of an agile team

  • Strong software development background essential, along with knowledge of modern software development toolsets including Cloud hosting, Containers, Kubernetes, Web App development, API's, DevOps Continuous Integration and Delivery.

  • You'll have an understanding of the entire application stack, deep and broad knowledge, and significant exposure to modern web technologies, especially JavaScript (ideally Node.js and react.js) as well as, ideally, Java, XML, SQL / Nosql, Docker, RESTful APIs and web services.

  • You'll also have an understanding of how to design low-latency, high-availability and performant applications

 

If this is you, come and join our inclusive, values-led culture focused on making a difference.

 

Together we'll make it possible...

 

So what can we offer you in return?

 

Whatever your aspiration, you can also expect excellent benefits, personal development and a career that's enriching and full of opportunity.

You'll also receive a package that includes

  • Discretionary bonus

  • Cash sum of 4% which you can exchange for a variety of benefits or simply take the cash

Company

We’re creating an organisation that attracts, retains and develops the best talent in the industry, and one that openly embraces diversity too. But more than that – we want to be a great place to work. We invest in our people, offering the best training and coaching, and by encouraging them to contribute to our leading corporate and social responsibility practices. We offer flexible working hours and days, under our Work Options scheme. This means that you can have a challenging and rewarding career, and still have an ideal work/life balance.

Flexible working is at the heart of our strategy. We’re re-imagining where, when, and how our people work, with new approaches designed to meet the ever-changing needs of customers and colleagues. These include increasing our use of remote-working tools and technology, as well as placing less reliance on a 9-to-5 mindset. For many of our office-based colleagues, we work in hybrid ways which involves spending at least two days per week or 40% of their time at one of our office sites.
