We have been successful in achieving changes in legislation at a national level through our advocacy work and gradually raising the profile of the seriousness of allergy, with our vision that everyone with allergy receives the best possible care.

A passion for CSS, including Sass
An understanding of working with git and core principles of UX and UI

The opportunity to work with world-leading charities to change the world
Flexible paid leave
A workplace that is both fun and supportive
Great hardware
Beautiful studio space at Digbeth’s Fazeley Studios (or the flexibility to work remotely)
Optional membership of the Developer Society co-op, giving you democratic input into the running of our organisation, including electing representatives and voting rights. This is something that sets us apart.
APPLYING

Applications for this hiring round will be taken until Monday 17th of June at 9AM (UK). We will try to let you know about next steps as soon as possible but we can't always reply to everyone as quickly as we would like.
We want to find out more about you and are really interested in you being a good fit for our team. Tell us something interesting about yourself: what’s your favourite board game? Tell us about your opinion on the divergence of the Game of Thrones TV show from the books. Do you think Snape is a goodie or a baddie? Or all of the above!
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity in our team. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status and we actively encourage and welcome applications from under-represented groups.
