We deliver high-profile and cutting-edge digital projects for household names across the public and private sectors. Softwire was founded on one simple idea: if we can create the best possible culture and working environment then everything else will fall into place. And it seems to be working - We were recently voted number 1 company to work for in the UK at the Best Company awards, and we have a loyal and growing client base who trust us with their hardest problems and their mission critical projects. We focus on creating a great culture and working environment and we are looking for people who share our core beliefs about what makes a great place to work: That if a job is worth doing, it's worth doing properly. That work should be fulfilling but can also be fun. That kindness matters and should be extended to employees and clients alike. That by being trusting and trustworthy as an organisation and as individuals we can dispense with tedious bureaucracy and rules. When you work with Softwire, you're not only becoming part of a team with in-depth technical skills and delivery expertise - you'll be working in a high-trust environment alongside skilled, kind, fun people who are passionate about creating amazing services and experiences that solve real problems. In brief We're looking for people who have a track record of successfully delivering bespoke software development projects in an agency setting; people who can own all aspects of that delivery: commercial,team, project vision, project delivery, and client management. We are looking for team-players who are experienced people managers, and whohave strong clientempathy and client management skills. We also valueexposure to pre-sales, and provide opportunities to make use of, or grow, pre-sales and account experience. In return, we can offer interesting projects with brilliant clients, high levels of autonomy and ownership, and strong - and stretching - management support. You'll have the opportunity to try new things - whether they be skills you're developing, or new initiatives that improve our processes or company culture.

You have prior agency experience and are familiar with reconciling commercial and quality drivers in a client-focused environment. You have excellent client management and relationship building skills. You are used to getting things done to external timetables and can balance competing demands to progress both the strategic and the tactical.

You are collaborative and want to create something enduring while having fun doing so. You are familiar with how software is created. You don't need to be able to write it yourself, but you can have informed conversations with technical team members, and understand the technical context and repercussions of project or scope decisions.
