Senior Software Consultant
A bit about us
At Waterstons, we don’t just build technology—we create meaningful business transformations. With a global presence spanning the UK and Australia, we partner with businesses to unlock their full potential through innovative solutions.
Our clients tell us our people are our greatest strength, and who are we to disagree? That’s why we invest in our team with unlimited holidays, flexible working, and private healthcare—because we believe the best work happens when people feel valued.
Did we also mention that we’ve been awarded Gold Investors in People for a fourth consecutive time?
What You’ll Be Doing
As a senior software consultant, you will be required to take a senior and sometimes lead role in bespoke software projects, related to your experience. These predominantly use C#/.NET – although we also use many other technologies, such as React, Azure Services, and AI.
You will often be talking directly with clients and internal stakeholders about new and interesting business problems, and will be involved in the proposal, design and delivery of these systems. You will be confident leading early conversations with these customers, delivering and demonstrating a final product, and mentoring junior software developers.
Your Day-to-Day
• Talking to customers and users about problems that digital technology can solve
• Contributing to, and sometimes leading on, a variety of software projects across different industries and sectors
• Working with the team’s technology stack, which includes C#, .NET, React, Azure DevOps, and Azure services such as Functions, SQL Server, Cosmos DB and Integration Services
• Mentoring less experienced software developers and contributing to the learning and growth of the software department
What we're looking for
If some (or most) of the following sound like you, we'd love to hear from you
• Strong experience delivering web development projects using C# and .NET
• Comfortable switching between different types of work and project contexts
• Confident communicating and presenting solutions to customers and stakeholders
• Understanding of agile delivery, DevOps practices and secure software development
Nice to have
• Consultancy or regular customer facing experience
• Interest in keeping up with current software development trends
• Experience presenting to senior stakeholders or demonstrating solutions
