Developer - Doncaster

While you’ll have heard our name, there’s a lot you probably don’t know about NEXT. Like how we create most of our systems ourselves – whether it’s a website, mobile app or application. What’s more, we’re growing. Fast. And it’s the kind of growth and investment that is exciting for everyone in our business. 

About the Team

Our eCommerce websites and apps have grown steadily over the past 10 years to become one of the largest online retail platforms in the UK. We currently sell to 70 international markets, offering our 6 million active customers a personalised shopping experience and the ability to purchase from a wide range of products using multiple delivery methods and payment types. 

About the Role

You’ll be working in our fast-paced and dynamic release train, helping deliver some of the hundreds of changes that happen each week within the Next and Total Platform websites.

You’ll negotiate the code traffic generated by over 15 product teams converging into many code bases, supporting the necessary code quality, QA and deployment processes and functions that ensure the quality of the build.

Working with stakeholders within the business from project concept to delivery and beyond will be a challenge you will continually meet. Delivering high-impact, performant and quality features will be second-nature, and spur you on to help us build even better features and technologies.

Providing development support to internal users, as well as offering out-of-hours cover during seasonal events and busy trading periods, you’ll continually feedback your expertise and experience to help make us even better.
