Software Engineering Manager
Chester - Hybrid (Typically 0–2 days/week in-office)
£65,00 - £70,000pa
Want to lead a strong .NET team through a proper tech transformation?
We're hiring a Software Engineering Manager to take the lead on a tight-knit team of mid-to-senior devs working on a core in-house platform — the one that handles bookings and reservations across multiple brands.
There's a big shift happening: multiple businesses are moving onto one platform, and this team is right in the middle of it.
You'll manage day-to-day delivery, mentor a capable team and help embed fully agile working.
Two senior tech leaders are carrying a lot of the load right now, and your job is to help balance that, grow the team, and make things run smoother.
You'll still be hands-on too (around 40%), mainly with .NET — enough to stay sharp and lead with credibility.
Why it's worth a look:
- Own the delivery of a platform that's central to big changes
- Coach a solid team that's ready to grow
- Make agile work for real — not just tick boxes
- Work closely with a sharp, supportive CTO and an experienced lead
- Hybrid setup: usually 0–2 days/week in the Chester office
- £65–70K salary range
Backed by private equity and growing fast, but this role's all about people, delivery, and making a good team even better.
If that sounds like your kind of move, let's have a chat.
