The person

You will enjoy solving problems, learning new technology and helping others. You will be organised, methodical and able to explain technical information clearly. You will be comfortable balancing development work with practical IT support, prioritising tasks and knowing when to escalate an issue.

You will bring relevant experience or a qualification in systems development, web development, IT or a related area, or be working towards this. You will also have experience providing practical IT support, setting up laptops, software and user accounts, and using or supporting Microsoft 365.

You will have exposure to HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Experience with PHP, SQL, application programming interfaces, version control, Jira, Docker, Power Automate or Power Apps would be an advantage, but relevant training will be provided.

To thrive in this role, you will have strong attention to detail, a proactive mindset and a genuine desire to work for a business for good. You will have a flexible, “muck in” approach, adapt to changing priorities and contribute ideas for continuous improvement.

We require all members of staff to work from the office every day for their first 3 months, and 3 days a week following this, therefore living within commuting distance to Skipton should be considered when applying.

If you have previous experience working in a similar development or IT support role then even better. A wicked sense of humour is a bonus too!
