Director of Software Engineering

Director / Head of Software Engineering

Location:   Remote, with travel into the West Midlands / Warwickshire a couple of times a month or so on average.

Salary:  Up to £90k + 20% bonus, pension and healthcare as well as other perks.

 

One of the UK’s most successful sustainability companies has asked us to help them find a standout Director of Software Engineering as they go through a period of change and gear up for international expansion.

The company are flying high right now, having grown continually over the past decade and now looking at further growth globally into new territories whilst developing new products and services within the sustainability sector.

They have a longstanding team of software engineers, product managers and industry consultants, but having been integrated into a larger group a few years ago, the leadership of the software engineering function has fluctuated as people have moved upwards and onwards.

The company are now ready to hire two dedicated roles –  a Director / Head of Software Engineering (this role) and also a Software Delivery Manager (who will work with you, directly line managing the dev team).

In this Head of Software Engineering role you’ll work with the senior group leadership team, internal product managers and the wider business to grow and maintain the technology that underpins their core services.

They are determined to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to technology and you’ll be leading the teams in building their flexible, scalable, modern platforms.

The role requires a senior software engineering leader who is no longer hands-on but is able to command respect and authority through their insight and track record.  You’ll be supported by a technical software development manager who will manage the engineering team on a day-to-day basis, but you’ll be responsible for engaging suppliers, determining resources, managing budgets and working with the senior leadership team to tie business objectives to technology outcomes.

You’ll have worked in a similar mid-sized (200 person +) company and will have managed the development of high volume/availability data and software platforms, preferably based on the Microsoft stack (.NET, Azure, Microsoft Dynamics CRM etc.).

As an experienced senior manager, you’ll be used to being the voice of software engineering within the business, ensuring cultural, technical and structural alignment.  You’ll be a leader who inspires and brings the best out of your team whilst being able to manage ongoing commercial, security, regulatory and quality/compliance considerations.

The business is known to be somewhere that takes care of its people and gives them a chance to show what they can do and to progress.  They want to build on this culture of low attrition and progression by hiring you, someone who is able to combine building engineering cultures that people love working within whilst still being absolutely determined to hit deadlines and business objectives.

The role will be full-on and challenging, but you’ll be supported by forward-thinking peers and you will have people to lean on whilst you settle in.

The role will be largely based from home with travel into the West Midlands / Warwickshire a couple of times a month or so on average.

On offer is a base salary of up to £90k + 20% bonus, pension and healthcare as well as other perks.

If the role could be of interest please apply for a guaranteed personal reply or call us (Google Rebel Recruiters for the number!) and ask for Mica :)

Package: £45k + £25k commission (Uncapped) + car/allowance

Business Waste Management…is more exciting than it sounds. No seriously. Especially when it’s for a company that has been in the biz for over 10 years, and has plans for major growth!

The name of the game here is environmentally sustainable waste management solutions.

If you’re an experienced sales professional, who has some experience in waste or facilities management, then we really want to hear from you

Senior Business Development Manager

Role:  Senior BDM – Software Outsourcing

Location:  Remote / London      

Salary:  £100k – £120k + significant bonuses and commission to take your earnings well over £150k 

The consultancy market is booming right now…and you’re probably fairly ‘comfortable’ right where you are.

As a Senior Sales / Business Development Manager you’ve been steadily growing your numbers, and winning new customers and the outlook for your year is positive.

However, you know there’s a limit to what you can realistically achieve if you stay where you are.

Maybe you are limited by a narrowly defined vertical.  Maybe the company is struggling to deliver the consultancy projects your customers want to give you.  Or maybe, you just fancy the chance to join a highly successful software outsourcing company as their first BDM as they look to grow their UK/European client base.

They’re already delivering for some UK household names as their team’s technical expertise and availability allow them to offer customers a genuine alternative option to the usually outsourced markets.

However, there’s a big market to go at, and they are committed to making the UK one of the key international markets so they are going all in with this role.

You’ll be paid a bonus guarantee for the first 6 months as you build your pipeline, with additional bonuses for any deals done during this time.  The commission is uncapped, and once you start signing up agreements (expected from month 7 onwards) your earning potential will be unlimited, with the additional opportunity to work from their offices in Dubai for a few months a year to benefit from tax-free income.

This isn’t your usual one-on-one out-hire.  It’s the first of its kind in the UK, and you’ll be supported by a positive and supporting Regional Sales Director.

They are looking for someone with previous tech outsourcing sales experience, and someone with a proven track record of delivering new business and signing deals between £200k – £1m or more.

The role will be home-based, though you can work out of their office in central London if you prefer.

The position may suit someone who always loved the idea of working in the Middle East, but struggled to commit to the idea as you will have the option here and they will support you if you do decide to spend some of the working year in Dubai.

On offer is a base salary of between £100k – £120k + significant bonuses and commission to take your earnings well over £150k.  private medical for you and your family is also included.

Please apply for a guaranteed personal response or call me (Sam @ Rebel Recruiters) to find out if it could be suitable for you!

Risk and Compliance Manager – Insurance

Role: Risk and Compliance Manager – Insurance
Location: Hybrid – Once a week in the office in Leicester
Salary: £50-70k

Life Insurance, eh?  Not the liveliest dinner table topic, granted.

HOWEVER.

It’s important.  And there’s one life insurance company who are breaking the rules in an old, tired industry and bringing fun to the table…and we’re very happy to be working with them!

They need a Risk and Compliance Manager to completely own this function for the company.

This isn’t your average insurance company. They are B-Corp certified and company values include independence and doing right by people. It is a great time to join this start-up and make a real impact on the insurance industry and on your own career development.

It’s not going to be an easy role.  There isn’t a big team to support you so you’ll need to be someone who is hands-on and can deliver as well as talk a great game.

You will need a solid understanding of insurance regulations – this bit is essential.  You will have some external support whilst you get up to speed but thereafter, you’ll be wholly responsible for all Risk/Compliance issues at the company.

Although you may end up growing a team as the company grows, this could be some time away so you need to be happy working independently in this role.

The position is offered on a hybrid basis – the office is based in Leicester and the team usually meet once a week every Wednesday

For further details please contact Samantha at Rebel or apply for a personal response from me!

Director of Operations

Location: Nottingham / London

Salary: £65k – £90k

You love working in a senior Operations role within education.  Almost everything about it.  The stability, the fact that you are helping to shape young people’s futures (directly or indirectly) and that you get to speak to and work with incredibly talented and passionate people.

However, starting work at 7 am can be a bummer if you aren’t a morning person. So, what do you do?  You apply for this job of course.  Duh!

This company is in hyper-growth mode.  They have an extensive client base of schools and education facilities around the UK, winning customer after customer off the back of their strong reputation for providing quality teaching and teaching support staff, on a temporary and permanent basis.

The Managing Director is now looking to bolster his senior leadership team by hiring their very first Director of Operations to join the team in a newly created role to help him steer the ship as they enter a new phase of their growth.

As Director of Operations, you will work closely with the HR Director to develop and implement new robust policies and procedures to get the most out of every team member and department to support the growth plans over the next two years.

They will be launching several new branches so there are big challenges and opportunities ahead!

All teams within the company will utilise the most effective technologies to drive performance, such as applicant tracking systems and sales management software. It is the responsibility of you, the Operations Director, to research and implement new technologies, tools, and strategies to ensure the future success and development of the company.

Location: Nottingham / London

Salary: £65K – £90K depending on experience and location

ClimateTech Commercial Operations Manager – Maritime Sector

ClimateTech Commercial Operations Manager (Maritime Sector)
Location: UK, remote – some travel required.
Salary: Up to £80K + equity & benefits & bonuses (will consider contractor without equity/benefits and longer-term view to go perm)
Role: Build brand & commercial strategy ready to deliver products & services in 2024

Some industries are easily adaptable to reducing emissions, driven by consumer behaviours. Others need dragging into the 21st century which requires a different approach. More patience, resilience and tenacity.

Shipping is notoriously tied to the fossil fuels sector, around 50% of everything transported by boat is oil, coal or gas. At first, they were slow adopters but now the penny has dropped and there is a somewhat hidden gold rush.

The company are developing wind-assisted solutions that aren’t available anywhere else. They’re seeing incredible demand from companies large and small. However, technology and hardware are still 18 months from delivery – in part because demand for these systems was small 5 years ago, 10 years ago it was non-existent.

They’ve raised several £million already – a mix of private equity and grants, with further multi-million-£ grants pending, some tied to outcomes and deadlines, others to drive R&D further – and will use that to deliver two test and validation projects, as well as further case studies to advance the case for adoption and improve credibility.

This person will network and present this company, its products and services to the world, creating a sales strategy so that when the hardware is ready for delivery in 2024 there’s a pipeline of customers. You’ll map the industry and potential clients engaging them to improve their understanding of how products can meet customer needs.

Department for Transport studies and data show there are more than 40,000 vessels worldwide that are eligible for using these wind technologies to cut fuel use and emissions by ~20-30%, delivering savings that can more than cover costs throughout the asset lifetime. Experts say 40K is a huge underestimate, so the opportunity is incredible.

The company are looking to the aviation sector for inspiration on its business model. Looking to lease equipment so that when vessels reach their end of life, assets aren’t stranded and don’t fall into disrepair, but instead are re-applied across businesses and their fleets.

There’s potential for maintenance contracts and weather insurance opportunities, too, so exp. With 3rd parties and building partnerships or exploring new ideas is beneficial. Not to mention their plans to offer logistics and route optimisation services through weather modelling software.

As part of all that, you’ll ensure profit margins and service costs are appropriate to generate revenue and maximise competition in a market that is currently in its infancy, with frankly quite wild room for growth and expansion.

Experience taking new products and ideas to market will stand out, particularly in heavy industry or start-ups.

ClimateTech Project Director – Maritime Sector

ClimateTech Project Director – Maritime sector

Location: UK, with travel to Scotland required, ad-hoc.

Salary: Up to £80K + equity & benefits (will consider contractor without equity/benefits)

Role: Take ownership of large-scale test & validation project, and other projects coming online.

When it comes to climate solutions some sectors are highly adaptable and driven by consumer behaviours towards change.

For others, the situation is more complex, with assets tied into operations for 30-year life spans and difficult trade-offs for retro-fits or bit-part actions. The maritime sector falls into that category.

Around 50% of everything transported by boat is fuel. Oil, coal or gas.

It’s easy to see a problem there regarding decarbonisation. But it must happen and finally ” thanks to the tireless work of a small, resilient and determined group ” it is. Appetite is growing faster than solutions providers can keep up with.

That appetite isn’t all for hydrogen, methane or ammonia engines and EV boats ” which are decades away *hint, 30-year assets* ” but for hybrid solutions, taking existing ships and retrofitting them with wind solutions that can cut fuel use and emissions by ~20-30% now. Why wait? Huge savings in fuels costs and emissions.

*Cue the Project Director, come on down!

We need someone with a varied skillset centred around project management. With experience working on multi-million £/$ projects, coordinating with the CFO keeping an eye on budgets, ensuring all key stakeholders are updated ” including C-suite folks, business and R&D partners, government and policy people, potential customers and more.

You don’t need to be from the maritime sector ” though shipping, heavy industry or engineering experience may be beneficial if you’ve works on R&D intensive projects before ” but you’ll need strong initiative, to be adaptable and pick up complex technical language, also being comfy working in a start-up where tasks not aligned with your responsibilities inevitably fall at your feet.

You’ll work with highly skilled industry experts such as navel architects and ship designers, data scientists etc. ” hence maritime exp. not being essential ” who can confirm or guide on whether materials or methodology fits, explain the ins-and-outs of risks or break down scientific reports, but you will become an expert in this field over time.

This is a Systems Design company, covering hardware to get ships from A to B using less fuel, and the software to optimise it all. They’ve have secured ~£5million in funding to prove the value in the products they will eventually take to market.

They have a business model that looks to lease the wind-propulsion hardware, offering software and logistics services to optimise the fuel savings made when retrofitting or building new ships with integrated wind technologies.

This is an incredibly interesting role at a time when the industry is clamouring for decarbonisation solutions. With few competitors ” none as far along the process ” and more than 40,000 vessels capable of utilising these technologies (Dept. for Transport research) there’s never been a better time to jump aboard”

GreenTech Software Engineering Manager

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.
