How You'll Make a Difference
As a Developer within the Design, Develop and Transition team, you will use your Microsoft Power Platform development skills to design, build and enhance digital services that support council staff and residents. Working collaboratively with colleagues across technology and council services, you will turn user needs into secure, reliable and well-tested solutions that make a practical difference.
What You Will Be Doing
It will be your responsibility to:
- Design, build, test and improve apps, integrations, processes and automations that meet user needs
- Work on development tasks within the broader Microsoft ecosystem
- Write clean, secure and well-tested code, following agreed standards and patterns, helping the team improve its development practices
- Work from user stories and requirements, challenge assumptions or gaps, and collaborate with product owners, solution architects, testers and other specialists to identify effective technical approaches
- Explain technical options clearly, build effective relationships with technical and non-technical colleagues, and take part in peer reviews of your own work and the work of others
- Produce clear technical documentation, assist with testing and deployments and investigate and resolve issues as they arise
What We Need From You
It is essential you hold a degree in a computer-related field, or have equivalent technical knowledge or relevant practical experience. You may also hold, or be working towards, a relevant professional or technical qualification.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will have:
- Practical experience in software development
- Strong specialist knowledge in Microsoft Power Platform
- Experience of Azure platform services, C#, or modern web development
We are looking for someone who can:
- Manage their workload effectively, prioritising competing demands and identifying issues at an early stage
- Work collaboratively as part of a multidisciplinary agile team
- Communicate clearly with technical and non-technical audiences, explaining complex information simply and contributing positively to shared team outcomes
What You Need To Know
This role is hybrid, with a mixture of working at our office in Badminton Road and working from home.
Interviews will be held week commencing 28th September.
