About The Role

FDM is a global business and technology consultancy seeking Senior Front-End Developers to work with our global systems integrator client, supporting a major enterprise technology modernisation programme. You will play a key role in designing, developing, and enhancing modern digital services that support the delivery of high-volume business processes and critical user journeys. This is initially a 5 month contract with very good prospects to extend and will be a remote role with occasional travel to Telford.

You will form part of a blended delivery team working alongside client and consultancy stakeholders, contributing to the successful delivery of multiple products within a dynamic programme environment. The role will involve both the development of new capabilities and the enhancement of existing services.
