WHO ARE WE?
We're an award-winning organisation established over 25 years' ago, who've seen 3 successive record years and counting. We're undergoing a period of expansion, which will see us open up a brand new software development studio, and are onboarding a Lead Developer to help drive success further.

In order to achieve success in this role, you'll have a strong commercial background in C++ development, be a keen problem solver and have the ability to work individually or in a team.
WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?
We've gone from strength to strength over the past few years and are now undergoing a period of expansion due to our success; we now require a Lead Developer with a strong background in both C++ development and people management to contribute to an array of newly released products.

You'll be responsible for ensuring projects are dealt with appropriately at each stage of the software development life cycle and that they are delivered on time. As a company, we also employ testers, designers and artists, meaning you'll be able to collaborate with other departments in order to share ideas and achieve success.
