Tech at THG
Technology is the driving force behind THG, and it starts with our people. We are ambitious with our goals and challenge conventional thinking. THG Technology is different because we support every single person to make massive impact and drive their own work.

As a Senior within our engineering teams would be helping to manage the SDLC for software projects, helping to design, develop and test solutions.

In your role, you would work closely with your Engineering Manager to shape the solutions you are building.
