Risk and Compliance Manager – Insurance

Written by Rebel Recruiters on 15 March 2023.

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

Software Delivery Manager

Written by rebelrecruitersinfo on 14 March 2023.

Role: Software Delivery Manager
Location: Stratford-Upon-Avon
Salary: £70-80k

You’re the person senior developers look to for leadership. The one who comes into your own when there are deadlines to be hit, but also when your team needs protection and ensuring they have everything they need to do what they do best.

You will have managed highly skilled, but sometimes demanding characters before and won their respect through your capability and people skills. You are calm, in control and someone who inspires confidence and trust.

The Technical Director here gets pulled into software development issues at times here, and that’s costing the business as he needs to be focusing on the big picture.

He needs someone who can work closely with him as a number 2 and take the day-to-day management of this highly capable and intelligent development team.

You will be joining one of the country’s fastest-growing companies, but also one with a ‘green’ soul who is doing good in the world and helping us all towards a more sustainable future.

Ideally, you’ll have come from a .NET background, either as a developer or having managed .NET developers. However, this isn’t vital. This isn’t a hands-on role; you need to lead people, projects and engagement with stakeholders and cross-functional teams rather than getting bogged down in technical details (you’ll have the support of technical leads and an architect for that).

However, you’ll appreciate Agile/DevOps best practices (inc. industry standard CI/CD tools), with experience in delivering software built on MS Azure or AWS, along with an understanding of containerisation using Docker and Kubernetes.

You may be working as a senior technical lead, engineering or delivery manager, either looking to take that first step into formal management or wanting to apply your experience and knowledge somewhere more forward-thinking (the projects this company has lined up are crazy-ambitious!).

Although not a huge company, they pack a punch for their size, investing in leading technologies (such as Mulesoft) and ensuring their developers have the best tools and kits to deliver amazing outcomes.

You’ll like a role where there is pressure but coupled with autonomy, where work-life balance is a real thing and where your boss is a great human being and someone who will always look out for you.

You’ll be free to work from home with regular (twice a month or so) travel into Warwickshire (your team is mainly UK remote, but you must drive as the office is not accessible with public transport).

The role is paying between £70k – £80k + generous pension, bonus and healthcare. To find out more please either call us (Google Rebel Recruiters!) or apply for a personal reply from me, Mica Bell!

GreenTech Senior Developer – Javascript OR Ruby on Rails

Written by Rebel Recruiters on 14 March 2023.

** Working Visa Available for this Role **

GreenTech Software Developer – Javascript OR Ruby on Rails

Location: Cambridge, flexible – quarterly office visits, maybe fully remote.

Salary: Up to £44K (+12% pension, healthcare and more)

Biodiversity is taking a beating at the hands of human expansion.

There are lots of ways technology can be utilised to help, rather than hinder, nature and our environment to prevent mass extinctions and nature loss.

This organisation work with governments, institutes, companies and orgs globally to build and implement solutions that improve outcomes.

Maintaining critical databases and expanding data services to deliver detailed insights and modelling. Or building tools for niche purposes, such as utilising remote sensors to track the growth of reforestation and using Geographic Information Systems to improve planning efficiency.

Governments are scrambling to understand how valuable biodiversity is and how it intersects with their economic plans, questioning whether a diverse forest is more commercially or socially valuable than an oil rig or palm oil plantation. How do you even measure that?

The aim [of the organisation] is to be more proactive in creating software and services that others can use and feed into to better deliver on their goals.

That means being more proactive in delivering software, websites, and mobile apps and coaching or supporting their somewhat junior team to avoid technical debt and reach go-live for various projects on time, enabling people to make the needed change.

A lot of their projects have geospatial and mapping elements, so experience with GIS tools and PostgreSQL is handy. Their software is built with Ruby on Rails and Javascript, VueJS and Nuxt specifically, so experience with one of those is a must. They also use Python, MySQL, GraphQL MapBox, Esri and Github, working in an Agile environment

As a senior dev, you’ll have a small team of 2-6 people whom you support, depending on your preferences, coaching them and doing code reviews, pair programming and testing so they can see and learn from how you and others tackle problems.

You’ll get involved in some more complex tasks like discussions on architecture and tooling, estimations for projects, resource management, and assigning tasks within your team.

They’ll support you in your development, too. It’s not just about what you can give, they’ll ask what you need to progress too. Whether that’s paying for courses, textbooks, or conference tickets – if you think of it, they’ll consider it, genuinely.

You’ll work with scientists, researchers, and interesting stakeholders to design, build and implement tools. The people here are exceptionally passionate so they will chart their own path where possible. You’ll facilitate some of that and be able to do the same.

If you’re serious about saving our planet this is definitely a role you should apply for.

What are you waiting for?

GreenTech Systems Architect

Written by rebelrecruitersinfo on 24 February 2023.

GreenTech Systems Architect

** WORKING VISA AVAILABLE **

Industry: Nature / Biodiversity Conservation
Location: Cambridge – 2 days per MONTH
Salary: £40,000 – £50,000 + 12% pension and life insurance.

Global efforts and commitments to protecting nature are increasing, from the 30 by 30 initiative laid out at Biodiversity COP15, to government consortiums implementing strategies.

How are we going to deliver on the promises and commitments made?

A global conservation organisation is looking for a Systems Architect, to continue the evolution of their data services and capabilities, looking to offer deeper insights and predictive modelling that their science teams can utilise to provide greater depth on their biodiversity reporting.

Their tech team has doubled in size over the last 2 years and they can offer excellent training and learning opportunities with lots of support with resources, online courses, textbooks, and conference tickets – you name it!

They’d also love someone who can mentor the senior team members, so they feel their skills are advancing. Giving them the confidence to take on more without becoming overburdened.

Data is a huge part of what they do. They manage a number of critical databases that are ever-growing, fed by research teams and partner organisations across the planet. They’re seeing growth in interest for everything they deliver.

So, experience designing databases and data pipelines, along with a deep understanding of integrating 3rd party data and APIs from multiple sources into the backend of complex systems would be great, as they collaborate heavily with entities worldwide, including governments.

You might be an engineering manager or technical architect, a senior dev or tester that happens to have a broader understanding than just your discipline and wants a green-tech challenge.

You don’t need to have done everything, for example, they have people with a firm grasp of cloud technologies and DevOps, but an understanding of those and security will enable you to settle in quicker.

You’ll have time and support while settling in but will quickly be working on complex problems, while hopefully showing others how to handle critical technical tasks and raising the level of the people around you.

They need more advanced data services and data science, to offer insights and provide historical context, not just a snapshot of a given situation. And all current data needs to be safely ported across to the new solution, it’ll be hosted in the cloud and integrated into dozens of partners’ systems.

Your specific background isn’t the critical thing, but coming from an environmental sciences or conservation background would help.

They’re open-minded but use a lot of Ruby on Rails, GIS and Geospatial technology and are increasingly using Python and Azure, building data pipelines and APIs. So, if applying tech to improve biodiversity and *quite literally* save our planet sounds like your bag. Hit apply or say hello.

C# Developer

Written by Rebel Recruiters on 17 February 2023.

Role: C# .Net Core Developer with Angular and AWS

Location: Office is based in Sandiacre, Nottinghamshire, hybrid working with 2-3 days per week in the office.

Salary: Up to £60k

C# and ASP.Net (Core) are where you live.

You’re comfortable there; you got your foundations right at the start with good development practices, and have since built a strong and secure career by learning about handy tools such as dependency injection, microservices, containerisation, etc.

You use cloud hosting like AWS to reduce your overheads and improve efficiencies.

For those mundane, repeatable tasks, you use design patterns, to make sure you do the same thing in the same way, every time, so your house doesn’t fall down due to shoddy, unpredictable work.

Whilst you use modern tech, practices, and techniques, you have been in the development game for long enough to be able to read, understand, and convert an older codebase (.Net 4, MVC, etc) to a new, shiny version (.Net Core, CosmosDB, AWS etc) seamlessly. You know what the newer stuff does best, and ways to incorporate that in the rewrite.

Finally, you’re great at understanding what your users want out of your solution because you’ve got great communication skills and ask the RIGHT questions! Doesn’t matter if they’re internal or external- you are good with people.

Now, you need a new role to put all this knowledge and experience to great use, which – if you hadn’t guessed already – is where this role comes in.

If the above describes you, this is the role for you.

The company is small and nimble; they can make development choices quickly and efficiently, everyone knows each other well, and are intelligent people that like to have a laugh along the way!

They are quite a young company, so even its legacy code isn’t very old. They make a point of leveraging the best tech out there to make sure their products are the best they can be well-written, functional, and reliable.

They have a flagship product and an additional one; this role will initially be seeing your work on the additional one; liaising with internal stakeholders (the product’s current users) to do a revamp of the codebase to bring it up to the latest iteration of .Net Core 6, improve its functionality, and to use a more appropriate database. You will then most likely work on the flagship product, which uses .Net Core 4/5, AWS, Microservices, Docker, etc.

If this sounds right up your street, apply now or drop me a line to find out more about your new role!

Aviation Digital Product Manager

Role: Aviation Digital Product Manager

Location: Fully Remote

Salary: £50k to £60k per annum

Aviation! Aviation! Aviation! Product Managers! Right, do I have your attention?

What do

Aviation! Aviation! Aviation! Product Managers! Right, do I have your attention?

What do big, polluting aeroplanes and saving the planet have in common? Not much I hear you say, and I wouldn’t blame you…but you’re wrong. There is one organisation that is taking Green-Tech to the skies!

I am hunting for a digital product manager with experience in the aviation sector to move into an ESG-based software solutions company aimed at changing the behaviour of pilots to make more sustainable choices. Now let me give you a few more pointers….

Sector: Aviation/data-centric products (experience in this sector is ESSENTIAL)

Company size: Small (less than 30)

Angle: Software aimed at changing the behaviour of pilots to make more sustainable decisions around flying.

Working model: 100% remote

This company is looking for their first dedicated product manager to answer directly to the VP of product to analyse the market and competitors to come up with brand new features and identify gaps in sustainable aviation software offerings to create new products in the future.

Since this will be their first product manager, if you are currently stuck in a rut and want more product oversight, this is a role you could seriously get your teeth into.

A lot of the role will be looking at user feedback from pilots to make future offerings more competitive and user-friendly. If you have a personal passion for ESG/sustainability, you will literally be making a direct impact on managing the development of software products aimed at lowering pollution through digitally altering pilot behaviour.

If this sounds of interest, hit apply and we shall hopefully speak soon!

IT Service Manager

Written by rebelrecruitersinfo on 19 January 2023.

Role: IT Manager

Location: Warwickshire – but free to work from home 3 – 4 days a week

Salary: Up to £55k

You’re the person that the support team look to for leadership. The one who, when a deadline needs to be hit, comes into your own, leading the team, ensuring they have everything they need and that they enjoy the right balance of accountability and freedom to do what they do best.

You will be joining one of the country’s fastest-growing companies, but also one with a ‘green’ soul who is doing good in the world and helping us all towards a more sustainable future.

You will be stepping into this role with a blank slate as this is a brand new role. You will be taking responsibility for developing, maintaining and implementing IT policies and procedures which help align with the company’s overall strategy and goals in line with frameworks.

Service delivery is an area that is a crucial part of this role as you will be responsible for ensuring the IT department meets its internal service level agreements and is able to deliver these services through the organisation.

Automation of processes is important and where they are looking to move towards, so if you have exposure to PowerShell that would be advantageous. You will be getting involved with other areas of the business as you will be supporting the development team with the delivery of the software development and road maps.

You’ll be free to work from home 3 or 4 days a week but it’s important that your team can learn from you in the office in Warwickshire as well.
