Benefits

We offer a salary of £25,000 to £35,000.

We have an office in Truro, Cornwall and a hub in central London, but we’re a flexible working team and will consider remote workers for this position. Ideally, we’d like a balance of some office time and some remote.

As a small team, we work flexibly and will trust you to manage your own time and resources. We’ll pay for anything you need to support you in your role.

We’ll be growing our package of benefits over time.

We currently offer:

• 25 days (Plus bank holidays) flexible holiday.

• Flexible working (including working from home).
• A brand new laptop device, 4K displays, and any other equipment you need.
• An annual training budget
• Regular (and optional) team socials.
• Private healthcare

Interview process

We want our interview process to be as straightforward and enjoyable as possible. The first step will be a quick call to discuss the basics of the role and to help decide if we’ll be a good fit. We’ll then follow up with a one-hour general technical interview. There are no trick questions or whiteboard exercises, but it would be good to see some examples of your code.
