We offer a competitive salary of £75k to £85k, with a 15-20% annual bonus, a 15% employer pension, 36 days of holiday (including bank holidays), private healthcare, enhanced parental leave, and excellent career progression pathways. Our interview process consists of three stages: a first stage conversation, a take-home technical test, and a final interview in the office.
