You will need to have excellent communication skills and a talent for technical problem solving. You will be working within a multi-disciplinary team that will follow an agile way of working to deliver software tools and end-user services to support the project.
We are an equal opportunities employer welcoming applications from all sections of the community and from people of diverse ages, experience and backgrounds, including people with disabilities. We are keen to explore the widest possible pool of talent for all our roles.
