Tech consultancies are having a field day, right?

The market is booming. So many projects, so many customers. The possibilities for an experienced Business Development Manager who loves to hunt are endless!

However, not all consultancies are made equal. Some have been around for too long. They’re too slow, too safe. Some are so young/small that they’re a tough sell against the bigger boys.

However, some, like this company, have the ability to compete on speed and the scale to compete on the scope.

They’re a multinational software consultancy that has grown since its humble beginnings 20 years ago to become one of the most respected and feared names in the software consultancy world.

They take on big projects with big names, outperforming much larger competitors through the excellence of their people and culture.

They’ve grown fast over the last 18 months and are expanding their sales teams within all channels.

With this position, we have been asked to find an experienced Business Development Manager with experience within the DACH Banking & Capital markets.

However, you must have a solid background in IT consultancy sales, having sold the full life-cycle of software development services to companies in the DACH region. And of course, you must be a German speaker!

The commission on offer is completely uncapped, with top performers earning superb base salaries and commissions well into 6 figures.

You can be based from anywhere, though their preference would be for candidates based in Germany, Switzerland or the UK.

GreenTech Software Engineering Manager ” Hands-Off

Salary: £80,000 – £130,000 + equity & benefits
Location: Fully remote, must be UK based

Is tech leadership your thing? Do you love getting a team of people to glide like a sailing boat on calm waters in a steady breeze?

And do you also care about sorting out the climate crisis, tackling meaty issues like food poverty and waste of” meat, and stuff?

Wellll then read on.

You likely forged your career as a developer working with dev teams of varied sizes ga’thumping interesting and engaging problems, where tech provides a tangible and useful solution.

The real important things for this role are leadership and scale. Have you led teams through big migrations, redesigns or rearchitecting and refactoring platforms and services? Has that software serviced millions of users?

The Mobile and Web app here has more than 6 million global users. They’re looking at problems linked to how their infrastructure and assets can work more efficiently, factoring in geographical and culture differences in user behaviours or digital access and capacity.

Sustainability is the aim of the game, enabling millions and then hundreds of, or even billions of people to live more sustainably and share the food or other items they don’t need, want, or no longer have use for.

Imagine working for a company that is actively changing how the world works, making it easy for us to turn wasteful consumers of excess to community-based action-heroes who are actively building a more sustainable future through the use of technology”

That can’t happen at scale [in a social system with raaaaather significant design flaws] without communities and the individuals within them adapting. This App facilitates all of that and improves social engagement along with a host of other benefits.

This role is hands-off. Tech knowledge is important, but building and maintaining happy and productive teams is important’er… Onboarding folks so they can settle in quickly and improving that process. And the happy part is probably most important. This company treat their people well and want them fresh and motivated to work. They don’t over work people and offer unrivalled flexibility to live and work how you see best.

Want to work from somewhere sunny for ~6 months of the year? That’s fine. They’re fully remote as standard ” always have been, so they’re set up for that structure. Ya just need to pay tax in the UK.

You’ll be leading a mobile team of 6 ” growing to 10 by the time you join as two Senior React Native devs are starting in the coming weeks and a [hands-on] Tech Lead will join soon, too ” including a QA Tester. You will help take ownership of delivering their projects, optimising processes, improving efficiency and skills within the team, and likely add 2-3 more people in 2023.

Their tech centres around Ruby on Rails and React (Native) and they use things like AWS with S3, ECR, ELB, Cloudwatch and also use Docker, Travis CI for their pipelines, lots of google maps integration and Redis, among other things. So any experience with those or similar tools would be cool, but not essential.

You’ll work closely with stakeholders including customers and product managers, other Team Leads and Engineering Managers, the CTO and other leadership to shape the priorities and direction of the platform.

So, fancy using your skills to help one the coolest and most newsworthy sustainability-tech companies in the world, while also advancing your career?

There’s plenty more to talk about, so send over your CV and let’s have a chat.

ClimateTech CTO – Hands-On

Location: Fully Remote (ideally UK).
Salary: £75K + benefits & equity

Tech stack: Python, Django, React, AWS, PostgreSQL

Know the saying, “a wolf in sheep’s clothing”? What if instead of a wolf there was clothing? And for the sheep, just more piles of clothing?

There’s a literal clothing desert in Chile and billions of discarded items are incinerated each year, on top of most of the items we wear are made from plastic/polyester.

There’s nothing sheepish about the company we are working with, they are fiercely changing the fashion industry, enabling brands to identify a sustainable pathway for their supply chain, through transparency and valuable data insights.

By doing this, businesses improve their own practices and focus their future activity on suppliers taking real steps to cut emissions, improve the sourcing of materials, tackle modern slavery and more.

They are essentially building a platform, which grants their clients access to data that otherwise they wouldn’t be able to collate or translate into actionable points. Through this platform, they also improve data the companies already have by making it broader and easier to work with.

This is incredibly powerful in achieving buy-in from major brands, helping them establish which factories they should do more work with, and which they should either steer away from or increase pressure to change.

They use data from various sources including publicly available international trade and shipping data, data from certification bodies and public information orgs addressing issues like pollution or modern slavery and they’re always finding additional sources to interrogate and improve the quality of data used.

One of the co-founders has been acting as CTO and building their software and data platform with some support from contractors.  He’s from a more product-focused background and needs an expert software engineer to take over in terms of technical leadership, making decisions on tooling, infrastructure, scaling up and executing their plans.

The team is small and they’ve just raised money, primarily from one angel investor, with an aim to become self-sustaining in the next 12-18 months, so you’ll essentially become part of the founding team, contributing to their vision and defining their pathway to reach profitability.

This means you’ll help them hire additional people as they grow and increase their impact, enable the scaling of their platform to bring additional customers, grow the number of users and add new functionality in line with customer needs.

Tech-wise they use Python, Django and React. They’re hoping to find someone with good cloud experience, though they’re not picky on which platform you’ve used. And PostgreSQL and good data/pipeline experience would be handy to have, too, as they have lots of data coming in from different places.

If you’re up for tackling intersecting social and environmental issues in a role as a founding member and CTO, this could be the one for you! Feel free to email, call or hit apply!
