Whenever I speak to prospective candidates and ask them how their job search is going, I always hear the same complaints... adverts, adverts and you guessed it... adverts! Namely, that adverts never describe what the candidate will be doing!

So being a fan of breaking the mould, I thought I would strip this advert down to its basics and focus on the Who, the What and the How...

WHO THEY ARE:

'They' are a leading Software Consultancy providing state of the art bespoke software to a range of customers - those customers span the finance, banking, public sector and retail industries to be exact!

WHAT THEY NEED:

This part is simple... they need experienced Lead Software Developers with a 'full stack' skillset and a background developing enterprise-scale applications using the Microsoft technologies stack.

The majority of your work will be greenfield so it is important that you have a clear skillset in new development projects, specifically cloud-based application development (Azure, AWS), web development (ASP.NET MVC, AngularJS, ReactJS) and core C#/SQL programming.

They have a big focus on a 'quality first' approach to software development so it is crucial that you are able to demonstrate an understanding of coding standards and best practice as your role will involve ensuring that all solutions are developed with quality in mind.

Moreover, any experience in a customer facing business (Digital Agency, Tech Consultancy) would be ideal and more senior applicants would be expected to work with senior stakeholders (both internal and external) so excellent communication skills are a must!

HOW WILL THIS BENEFIT YOU:

Simply put... it will be a challenge.

These guys work with some of the largest organisations in the world and this role will give you the chance to work on Enterprise-scale projects using the latest tools and technologies. Moreover, their company culture encourages creativity and this is a genuine opportunity to innovate.

On top of that, they offer a highly competitive base salary (between £80,000-£100,000) as well as a 10% non-contributory pension, 25 days holiday and private healthcare.

So if you tick all of those boxes and are even more interested in this role then give me a shout. You can call me on either 0191 338 7572 or 0720296628. Alternatively, if you are unable to chat then send me an email to [email protected].

Anything discussed will be kept completely confidential.
