IT CONSULTANT

IT consultants typically work as the bridge between the technical team and staff members by getting a clear understanding of the client requirements of the business model and strategy.

There are different reasons a business may require the assistance of an IT consultant:

• To seek advice and recommendations about business and IT problems
• To diagnose and refine challenges & opportunities
• To make recommendations to improve team effectiveness
• Implement new systems to increase productivity and awareness
• To temporarily help during a project where the hiring of permanent employees is not necessary
• External specialist advice

Responsibilities of IT Consultant

An IT consultant must be capable of reaching high standards and having strong analytical skills to understand potential issues and develop solutions. Time management and being able to multi-task is crucial as well as having strong communication skills to understand the needs and requirements of clients. Other duties may include:

• Recognising the requirements and scope of the business from the client
• Developing a plan of action including time scale and resources required
• Understanding the practices and nature of business
• Monitor the computer systems and networks in an organisation
• Liaising with software engineers and IT members
• Analysing potential issues and presenting written or oral solutions
• Communicate in writing to understand the work that needs to be done
• Be willing to travel across the country or even overseas

Qualifications & Training

Although any IT degree can be acceptable, graduates with degrees in software engineering, computer science or mathematics are usually preferred though anyone with a strong knowledge of IT and computer programming can be considered.

A new IT consultant will undertake training to improve business and technical skills such as coding, enterprise languages like SAP and programming languages like C, C++, C#, Java, Visual Basic, .NET or Python.

Control Software Engineer

Near Dudley, West Midlands

to c£50k neg dep exp + ben

Our client is recognised as a world leader in their niche design, manufacture & development sector and as a result of continued success and a planned program of strategic growth, they are now seeking to recruit an articulate, dynamic and highly self-motivated PLC Control Software Engineer to complement their established and successful Control Software Development team.

Based near Dudley in the West Midlands, the successful candidate will need to be particularly adept at learning new technologies quickly due to the niche nature of the application and will be working on a range of PLC and Safety PLC programs that will be driving a variety of motion platforms including small to large Stewart and three degrees of freedom (3DoF) platforms, with additional systems incorporating articulated robot arms and AGV's.

As a PLC Control Software Engineer you will be involved in both maintaining and improving these existing programs as well as assisting in the design and development of innovative new programs for new systems, before following the equipment through to commissioning at customer sites - and with this in mind, a full clean UK driving licence is essential to allow you to go to sites to commission new PLCs as well as to upgrade their existing systems.

To be considered for this unique and exciting opportunity, it is envisaged that the successful candidate will be qualified to at least HND level or above in a relevant Electrical or Computer Science related discipline and will demonstrate proven experience of working with PLC's (with Beckhoff PLC's proving distinctly advantageous).

You will possess strong problem solving and diagnostic abilities as well as a good all round electrical knowledge and the ability to read electrical schematic drawings. With knowledge of IEC (phone number removed) and a good understanding of safety programming concepts and software engineering practices (OO principles and design patterns), additional knowledge of programming on other platforms (C++, C#, Python) and exposure to Motion/ Path Planning, Scrum and Source control (Git, Mercurial) will also prove particularly beneficial, as will previous experience of HMI development, Scoping and SISTEMA.

Whilst the role is ideally suited to an experienced PLC Control Software Engineer seeking an unusual opportunity to work within an exciting niche sector arena, there is also scope to potentially recruit an enthusiastic, self-motivated and suitably qualified Junior PLC Software Engineer who could develop and progress their career within a structured and dynamic environment.
