Jisc is a UK higher, further education and skills sector organisation providing digital services, products and solutions. We operate shared digital infrastructure and services, negotiate sector-wide deals with IT vendors and commercial publishers as well as providing trusted advice and practical assistance for universities, colleges and learning providers. Across our business, our tech teams work on a variety of exciting projects for our members and customers in order to drive unique and exciting solutions.
We believe in ‘Technology for Good’ – in improving lives through education and research. Our people want to make a real change – at Jisc, everyone plays a key role and gets the chance to feel part of it, that to us is the definition of a meaningful career. Being a social enterprise means that no matter how small our individual actions are, the positive impact on our collective is huge.
We’re a place unlike any other, where the best of education fuses with the best of technology to create a unique model with unique opportunities and interesting problems to solve in a diverse and inclusive environment. It’s what keeps our work varied, original and surprising – and that’s why we love it.
We’re gearing up for our most exciting chapter yet – one with the chance to both build new systems and make our mark by improving old ones. Our story will be written by those ready to take on challenges and see them through; the kind of people who never stop learning, celebrating differences and using it to drive better solutions.
At the heart of our Software Development Group, (SDG) we have over a dozen development teams delivering a variety of valuable and impactful products.
We’ll try to match you up with a team that gives you the best onboarding experience and a launchpad to spring forward in your career with us.
We believe in developing great software whilst also developing ourselves and others along the way. We’re always looking for ways to improve the way we work in SDG - like supporting developer swaps between teams to share skills, gain new experience and to keep careers fresh and interesting.
We also like to get together as a group of developers every fortnight for an online meet up, led in rotation by one of our varied and diverse development teams. It’s a simple, informal format with constructive feedback, discussion and audience participation encouraged. Teams share the problems they’ve been working on, ask for advice and feedback, explore new challenges and share the lessons they’ve learned.
We know that sometimes people can be put off applying for a job if they think they can’t tick every box but we realise the ‘perfect candidate’ doesn’t exist. So, if you can do most of what we’re looking for, go ahead and apply. You could be exactly what we need!
