About Us: At Phoenix Group we are committed to excellence and dedicated to our customers’ needs. We deliver health, every day, all day.
As a pan-European wholesaling and retail company we do that in many ways; in the UK with more than 450 community pharmacies, 13 nationwide distribution depots and over 6,000 employees. Supporting longer, healthier and happier lives is at the heart of the service that we deliver to our communities and something that we are really proud of.
About The Opportunity:
We are looking for an experienced Technical Lead to join a new low code delivery team within our IT Solution Delivery Department.
During the initial 9 months we will be piloting the OutSystems low code platform; using it to rapidly design, build and deploy a number of new digital solutions across our business. In this exciting new role you will be responsible for establishing this brand new function including putting into place appropriate practices, standards, techniques & tools.
We expect that a successful pilot will lead to the establishment of a permanent low code delivery team and so, whilst this is an initial 9 month fixed term contract, it may lead to the offer of a permanent role in future.
OutSystems experience is not necessary. Full training will be given together with the opportunity to gain certification.
Who We Want: As a Technical Lead you will:
- Gain genuine enjoyment from seeing projects through, from start to finish.
- Be flexible and responsive to changing priorities and multiple, concurrent responsibilities.
- Enjoy working with colleagues and customers and be able to explain technical detail to a non-technical audience.
- Take satisfaction in developing the skills and capabilities of more junior team members.
- Be comfortable handling a split between architecture and design responsibilities, and programming responsibilities.
Required qualifications, skills and experience:
- Several years’ professional experience in software development, ideally C# or Java.
- Strong experience in developing web and mobile applications.
- Proven ability to design and optimize application and data integration processes across systems.
- Delivering software using Test and/or Behaviour Driven Design and familiarity with test automation and CI/CD pipelines.
- Lean and/or agile ways of working and use of supporting tools, ideally Jira or Azure DevOps.
- Developing team members through peer coding, code review, and knowledge transfer.
- Degree in Computer Science or Engineering or equivalent experience.
- OutSystems certification is a plus.
In return for your stellar efforts we can offer;
- A competitive remuneration package
- A fantastic working environment
- Opportunity to work flexibly
- On site, free car parking facilities
- An employee discount scheme
Ordinarily, our IT Solution Delivery team is based within our Head Office in Runcorn but in light of the ongoing pandemic the team is working on a remote basis, with interviews potentially being held remotely also.
