You will typically work with one client at a time, delivering meaningful outcomes in a professional, client-facing environment. Alongside this, you will complete a minimum of six industry-recognised accreditations, with clear progression pathways and salary growth as you develop.
With your specialism in Software Engineering, you will have a tailored learning development journey bespoke to your role, meaning you are prepared for whatever the day throws at you, whilst learning key skills and gaining industry specific accreditations along the way.

- Commuting distance of Bridgend and a desire to remain in the area long-term. Must be able to be on site a minimum of three days a week.
