Senior COBOL Developer

Oxfordshire / Hybrid (1-day per week in office)

Easily commutable from Birmingham, Coventry & London

£55k - £65k + Corporate benefits

A long-established software business is hiring a Senior COBOL Developer to maintain and support its core platform during a 4-5 years migration project. You will work on a substantial estate of mission‑critical COBOL applications running the business day to day, alongside an active programme of enhancements, regulatory updates and performance work.

You will work in a small, Agile development team but take the lead on the COBOL work. The role is hands‑on, mixing new development, BAU enhancement, production support and code archaeology across the legacy estate.


Responsibilities:

* Writing new Enterprise COBOL programs and enhancing existing ones, including embedded SQL against DB2
* Owning batch JCL and online CICS transactions, including BMS maps and copybooks
* Code archaeology and data analysis across legacy modules
* Supporting release management and code promotion across environments
* Mentoring junior team members and helping shape technical standards


Your experience will ideally include:

* Multiple years of Enterprise COBOL or VS COBOL II on a real production estate
* Strong CICS, DB2 and JCL, with hands‑on VSAM
* Comfortable with copybooks, BMS maps and embedded SQL on z/OS
* Code management with Endevor, ChangeMan, SCLM or similar
* Pragmatic approach to legacy code, with the patience to read it carefully before changing it
