You will be firmly hands-on, spending the majority of your time designing, creating, optimising, and maintaining complex and quickly-growing Cloud software in the emerging vet-tech sector.

• Flexible schedule. Our regular hours are 9-5 GMT/BST, but this isn’t a “clock in, clock out” company. You’re fully trusted to create the right conditions for your own personal peak productivity. We only ask that you’re available to your teammates for 5-6 hours a day and attend daily catch up meetings.

Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging

We’re building an inclusive and diverse team. We truly believe that surrounding ourselves with different opinions means that we’ll challenge our own assumptions instead of thinking we know the correct answer. We welcome applications from everyone and will foster an encouraging and caring workplace. We know by data that people from minority backgrounds – such as black people/POC, women, neurodivergent, etc, tend to only apply for roles when they meet 90% or more of the requirements. We’re not looking for unicorns (they’re not something we’ve seen in the Veterinary clinics yet anyway!) so please, send us your CV anyway. We’ll take the time to look over your application and give you feedback.

We don’t just want to build a diverse team, we want to make it truly inclusive, where no matter what background you are from, you feel a strong sense of belonging.
