We are proud to have been placed 4th in the Sunday Times ‘100 Best Companies to Work For 2012', and also the highest placed technology company for the 9th year running.

The best jobs are always those that rely on your sharpest skills. If you enjoy devising creative solutions to difficult problems, and want to work with colleagues who are among the smartest and brightest in their field, then we would like to hear from you.

From day one, you will be assigned real tasks working on the design and development of complex software or hardware. We will provide you with the support and guidance to take on challenges that will allow you to increase your knowledge and continue to progress.

You can develop your career in a technical role, or you can explore other paths within our flexible organisation.

Your Training and Development
Employee development is at the heart of our culture, enabling all of our talented people to fulfil their potential. Your training is unique to you and will continue throughout your career with us.

What We Look For
The secret of our success is the people we recruit – and we’re looking for the best. You do not need prior computing experience, but an enquiring mind and the proven ability to solve complex problems are essential. We recruit graduates and postgraduates from all degree disciplines. Interns can apply from all years. Successful applicants typically have all ‘A’ or ‘A*’ grades at A-Level.

Rewards
Graduates start on a salary of £30,000 plus an excellent benefits package. You will have a significant stake in the future of the business: we operate generous bonus and share plans to ensure your contribution is recognised, and you have the opportunity to benefit from the long term success of the company.

Other benefits include private healthcare, life insurance, a non-contributory pension and up to 7 weeks holiday after your first year. There are also numerous team and office morale events where activities can vary from drinks, bowling or karting, to a day or weekend away with a larger group (Center Parcs, Paris and Vilnius have been some recent favourite destinations!).
