A role that checks all the right boxes for Junior Perl developers

Well-paid? Check. Stellar work environment? Check. Huge opportunity for growth? Check. Time for a reality check? Nope. It’s all real, reputable and ripe for the taking.

Let’s set the scene. You’ve got some Perl experience under your belt and you’re itching to grab an opportunity that’s bigger, bolder, and with bags of room for growth. This client delivers it in spades.

A household name, they’re well-liked because they let customers tweak every aspect of the product to suit their personality, and this tailor-made ethos extends to staff, where your unique character traits are welcomed and catered for.

Starting out in Perl full-time, the client will be switching to Node.js, giving you the chance to earn a decent salary of 35-40k per year, while learning a new stack and adding valuable strings to your coding bow. 25 days holiday is the base starter, which is elevated at a day-per-year to 30, giving you extra legroom to enjoy.

They’re based right by Kings Cross station, perfect for not just those living in central London, but keen commuters averse to eye-watering rental prices. Arrive through platform 9 3⁄4 if you’ve been taking magic classes.

You’d expect a client with their reputation to have some pretty sweet offices, and they deliver. You’ll be working in a large, contemporary atrium decked out in sleek, industrial style. It houses contrasts, with options for squirreled away cubby holes to work unimpeded, and a spacious, open-plan interior enhanced by an abundance of natural light that cascades through the immense windows. Enjoy it while you enjoy their free food and drink.

In addition to all the above, private medical and dental treatment and discounts on their products add to the whole package of delights you’ll have at your fingertips. With the salary, location, perks and opportunities available, this is a job that checks all the boxes.
