We are a small team. We have around 30 people in our software team, so even though we are a part of a company of around 100 people overall, the software team has retained a small team “startup” feel. Your colleagues will be from a wide variety of backgrounds – we encourage diversity, openness and gender equality.
We value the long-term. The success and stability that comes from 25+ years’ experience in software development means we value the long-term in terms of software development and the development of our people.

The Schools of King Edward VI in Birmingham
Birmingham, UK
The mission of the King Edward VI Foundation (the “Foundation”) is to make Birmingham the best place to be educated in the UK. A progressive, influential educational charity, King Edward VI Foundation’s reputation is underpinned by a long and distinguished history.

The 21st century has brought the formation of the King Edward VI Academy Trust, a means of expanding from our original five grammar schools to a current family of eleven academies and two independent schools. Six of the academies are selective; five are comprehensive, some serving Birmingham’s most deprived communities. To serve the city’s children, we recognise that we need to provide a diverse range of schools: independent as well as Academies, selective and also comprehensive.
