Operations Director - Technical IT Recruitment - Permanent & Contract
PHP Developer, with strong Linux experience, required for a successful local business to support, maintain, and continuously develop their bespoke ERP system; based in Manchester, paying up to £60K + Benefits, with hybrid working options.
We are looking for someone who can own this bespoke ERP; built historically in Java & Linux (Debian specifically), with frontend Apps in PHP. (There are longer-term big plans for this too, so please see below for more information)
This role can be best described as a "Linux System Admin with some software development capabilities" or a "Software Developer who has managed Linux Servers and broader IT services".
After a detailed call with the IT Manager, we've gained great insight into the current status of the product and the long-term opportunity to own and deliver "nirvana" for the business in the future. You could make a real impact here, and long-term.
This is an opportunity to join a business that rarely recruits, as people genuinely stay long-term, prioritizing career development, job satisfaction, security, and future opportunities.
Ideally, we're looking for candidates with as much of the following experience as possible, with the first points being the main focus:
* Linux Server Administration, Maintenance, and Management - Debian being the ideal
* Some experience in Java, to support and modify the ERP
* Some experience in PHP for system development and new features
* Ability to work with business stakeholders to define requirements and deliver solutions
* Basic Windows Management (not essential)
* Experience or integration with Sage products (not essential)
This role suits a creative problem solver who enjoys identifying issues and finding solutions. You need to be adaptable to technologies and eager to take on the challenge of transforming a slightly aging bespoke product into a seamless future experience for users and the business's long-term goals.
This unique skill mix is ideal for someone with broader experience as a Software Developer or Linux SysAdmin.
I look forward to hearing from you and sharing more about this role; please click Apply, and I'll be in touch.
