Everything we do is team-based. We take Agile seriously; your delivery team will be small but will have the people it needs to get things done - developers, testers, product owner, and a delivery manager - as well as access to infrastructure specialists, UX experts, and business analysts.
Quality is paramount. You and your team will be supported to do excellent work. Everyone reviews code and everyone welcomes feedback.

The role is office-based for a minimum 4 days a week due to the nature of the work, with the option of 1 day a week working from home.
