Job Description
Head of Engineering
PHP / Laravel | AWS | CI/CD
Manchester (Hybrid)
£90,000 - £100,000
A Manchester-based business is quietly exploring the appointment of a Head of Engineering to help modernise its engineering function.
This role will suit someone who started their career as a software engineer, has gone on to lead teams at scale and now enjoys shaping people, platforms and engineering culture.
You'd be stepping into an established environment with around 15 engineers already in place, where the focus is on:
* Bringing structure and consistency to delivery
* Evolving a monolithic platform towards microservices
* Embedding CI/CD pipelines into day-to-day engineering practice
* Supporting a wider move towards AWS and cloud-native tooling
This isn't a greenfield rebuild. It's about raising standards, improving flow and setting technical direction.
Working pattern
* Office-based initially to build context and relationships
* Hybrid (2 days office / 3 remote) longer term
Package
* £90,000 - £100,000
If you're curious and open to an informal discussion, or know someone who might be a fit, get in touch.
