As a software developer, you will work closely with several different roles to ensure that the changes you develop are delivered in a timely manner and to specification. As such, collaboration within the team with all disciplines including Solution Assurance and Business Analysis is essential to the role.

It is fully expected that you will be up to date with current technologies and will have a keen desire to both learn from others and to help others learn from you in order to progress and grow both yourself and the team.

We create better outcomes for the business and our candidates by identifying the best, most diverse people who have the skills, values, mindset and potential to help us realise our strategic ambitions.

You will be part of a development team of around 10-15 people including around 4 other software developers, 1 development team lead, 4 test analysts and several business analysts.

What we're looking for:

• Strong technical development skills using Microsoft .NET languages

• A strong problem-solving mindset to aid with investigating reported issues to identify the cause and solution

• Experience of source control repositories e.g. GIT for collaboration with others as well as safely managing the product source code

• A team player, comfortable with collaborating with people of different roles and backgrounds

• Able to be self-reliant, but know when to reach out for support from others when required

• Able to maintain a clear, simple, efficient approach in all aspects of your work

• A passion to learn and keep growing to keep up with new technologies and progress your career

• A good attention to detail and a drive to get things right first time

• Due to the nature of our work you must be eligible for Security Clearance

What’s in it for you?

• The opportunity to take a paid day out of the office, volunteering for our charity partners or a cause of your choice

• Company matched pension, life assurance, a cycle2work scheme, 15 weeks’ fully paid maternity, adoption and shared parental leave, paternity pay of two weeks…and plenty more

• Voluntary benefits designed to suit your lifestyle – from discounts on retail and socialising, to health & wellbeing, travel and technology
