SQL Developer Hybrid Working - Leicestershire 2 days per week | Up to £50,000 + Excellent Benefits - see below. There are plenty of SQL Developer roles out there that promise “variety” or “ownership”. This one genuinely delivers both. You’d be joining a small, highly collaborative MI & Systems team where your work has visible impact across the business. The environment is supportive, fast-moving, and hands-on, the kind of place where good ideas are listened to, people are trusted to get on with things, and your contribution actually matters. This isn’t a huge corporate function where you become one small part of a massive machine. It’s a role where you’ll quickly become a key technical person within the team, working closely with the MI & Systems Manager to support reporting, systems, operational processes, and wider business projects. The business itself has built a strong reputation for doing things properly, balancing traditional values with a modern, forward-thinking approach. Technology, reporting, and systems are becoming increasingly important to how the organisation operates, which means this role sits in a genuinely important part of the business. The position combines SQL development, reporting, troubleshooting, operational support, and project work. Some days you’ll be writing and optimising complex SQL queries or building reports for key stakeholders. Other days you’ll be investigating issues, monitoring jobs, improving processes, or supporting wider systems initiatives. What makes the role particularly interesting is the balance. It’s not purely BAU support, but it’s also not a siloed development position where you only ever write code. You’ll get exposure to the operational side of systems and reporting too, which means you’ll develop a much broader understanding of how technology supports the business day to day. You’ll be joining a small team where people naturally wear multiple hats, support each other, and work collaboratively to solve problems. There’s a strong sense of ownership and trust. They’re looking for someone who enjoys taking responsibility, spotting improvements, and getting stuck in. From a technical perspective, the role is heavily SQL focused. You’ll be working with complex queries, stored procedures, reporting processes, ETL/data integration, and performance optimisation. There’s also scope to get involved with Power BI, reporting enhancements, and wider systems support work depending on your interests and experience. This role would suit someone who enjoys:
* Solving problems rather than just escalating them
* Working closely with stakeholders and understanding the bigger picture
* A mix of development and operational responsibility
* Smaller, collaborative environments
* Variety in their day-to-day work
* Having real ownership rather than being micromanaged
They’re looking for someone with strong SQL Server experience, excellent troubleshooting skills, and the confidence to work independently when needed. Experience with Power BI, Reporting Services, ETL processes, or broader systems support would all be beneficial, but attitude and adaptability are just as important. In return, the business offers:Salary: up to £50,000, but we can discuss if you're interested but might need more.
* 27 days annual leave + Birthday off + BH, Buy & Sell Holiday, 10% Pension, Private Healthcare, Bonus, Wellbeing Programs, Medi Cash Plan, Discount Gym Membership, Maternity, Adoption, Surrogacy and Shared Parental leave, EV & Bike to work scheme, Charity & Community Events + More.
For someone who enjoys variety, ownership, and being part of a close-knit technical team where your work genuinely makes a difference, this is a really strong opportunity
