This is a great opportunity for someone from an application support service background, who also enjoys getting involved in a broader range of client development projects.

They must have good communication skills, the ability to work to tight time scales and under pressure. Tell me more... This is a customer facing position and you will be in daily contact with our customers. We operate a hybrid model but you can expect to be working mainly remote or choose from one of our conveniently located offices (Farnham and London) as well as occasionally working alongside our customers at their offices, so there will be some occasional travel. You will collaborate closely with teams based in the UK, Bulgaria, and India, working across different time zones to ensure seamless communication and effective service delivery. There will be a need to occasionally work outside of the normal office hours, but this can be remotely (from your home) and of course this time will be recognised and rewarded.
