Technology is at the heart of what we do and is changing the world like never before, which makes it a really exciting time to join us. Working shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients, we are pioneering some of the most advanced tech-enabled solutions to help them solve some of their biggest business challenges and make a difference.
Our software engineers come from a diverse range of backgrounds. Whether fresh out of school or college, or ready to start a new opportunity - we look for people who are curious and passionate about technology; who have a team-first mindset, want to learn, are willing to take on early responsibility and relish solving problems.
Our work is both technical and diverse and our Software Engineering apprenticeship is designed to support you on your journey to a successful career in technology. You’ll explore the interaction between technical systems and the workplace and how to leverage them effectively for maximum business impact. You’ll study towards a BSc (Hons) degree in Digital and Technology Solutions and could find yourself learning specialisms such as software development, Cloud infrastructure, user experience design (UX), testing, coding or project management. Along the way, you’ll also develop technical skills; learning languages including C# with a fast-growing Python base and work towards accreditations through the likes of AWS, Google Cloud Platform or Microsoft Azure.
You’ll develop a host of core skills to help you succeed in the workplace. From presenting on projects, to report writing and how to build your network; learning how to work as part of a professional team and keep up the pace on projects. This is a practical, hands on programme and you’ll be supported by team members to help you take on new challenges. You’ll be inspired to learn every day; whether in the classroom, amongst your peers or working with experienced specialists. We’ll provide plenty of support and a blend of development opportunities to help you achieve your potential, including attending events to build your industry knowledge.
Our team have been working with clients in a mixture of both face-to-face and remote methods for many years, which has placed us well to adapt to the recent changes to traditional ways of working faced by many businesses.
