**About you**

We’d expect that you’ll have at least 1 year’s relevant experience working on either the front end and/or back end, developing solutions that provide real benefit to users, and ideally working in an Agile project delivery environment using Scrum or Kanban, although this is not essential. You will be passionate about writing software and will be familiar with techniques used to deliver high quality, tested, scalable and maintainable code.

**Experience you’ll gain**
- Coding using C#, Java or Python

We work a 37.5-hour week, with all our team free to flex their day around our core hours, which are Monday to Friday, 10 to 4 GMT/BST. School runs, etc can be accommodated. Other flexible working patterns can be considered, including part-time working and non-traditional hours. As we regularly work with global teams, particularly in India and the US, there may be the occasional need to accommodate meetings outside of core hours.

- 25 Days annual leave (increasing by 1 day with every year of continuous service up to 30 days); annual leave trading, +/- 5 days
