Your new company I'm working exclusively with this product-development business to build out their Dev team with 3-4 hires. Having navigated Covid with no redundancies and growing their international customer base the plan is to add 40% headcount in the next 6 months so it's a really exciting time to be joining.You'll be based from their modern head office in Central Bournemouth 2 days per week, a few minutes from the beach and on direct train routes to London.
