This team is responsible for seeking out opportunities across the business to implement new technology to optimise operations and delivery. As such, you’d be joining colleagues from multiple disciplines, such as data analytics & operations, and be responsible for building out POCs and approved project work.

Experience with OOP PHP and MVC Frameworks (ideally Laravel)
Experience with Software Optimisations
Any experience with AI/Python would be a benefit

This PHP Developer (R&D Team) role is attracting a high number of applicants at the moment so be sure to get in contact ASAP or send a CV to (url removed) to avoid missing out
