Location: Manchester, hybrid
Start Date: 21 August 2026
Contract: Full-time, with strong potential for progression
Experience: 0 to 3 years of development experience
Join the Elevate Programme and build your development career with a major technology consultancy.
We are hiring Junior Developers with 0-3 years of experience for a Manchester-based programme starting in July 2026. You will join Vantage Point Global, complete structured technical training, and then land within a large technology consultancy where you will work on real client delivery, enterprise systems, workflow automation, and digital transformation projects.
This is a strong opportunity for developers who want more than a narrow coding role. You will learn how modern businesses design, build, configure, automate, and improve the systems that keep large organisations running.
You will receive structured training, coaching, and ongoing development support, with clear room to progress into more senior roles, including developer, platform specialist, technical consultant, or solution delivery.
As a Junior Developer, you will:
Develop, configure, test, and support enterprise technology solutions
Work with structured workflows, data models, business rules, forms, integrations, and automation logic
Translate business requirements into practical technical solutions
Write clean, maintainable code and configuration
Support testing, defect resolution, documentation, and release activity
Work closely with senior developers, technical leads, business analysts, and client stakeholders
Learn how large consultancies deliver technology change across complex client environments
Build confidence in enterprise platforms, integration patterns, and low-code/pro-code delivery
Contribute to a team where curiosity, ownership, and learning matter
We are looking for developers with a strong technical foundation and a learning mindset who can grow into specialist enterprise platform roles.
You should have:
Up to 3 years of development experience, either on personal projects or in the workplace
Good knowledge of JavaScript or another object-oriented programming language
A clear understanding of software development fundamentals
Experience working with APIs, databases, data structures, or web applications
Confidence debugging issues and working through technical problems logically
An interest in automation, workflow tools, enterprise systems, and digital transformation
A practical, delivery-focused mindset
Good communication skills and the ability to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Comfort learning new tools, platforms, and ways of working
Strong attention to detail when working with requirements, data, testing, and documentation
You do not need to have experience with every item below, but exposure to some of these areas would be helpful:
JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C#, Python, or similar
HTML, CSS, front-end development, or web application development
SQL, relational databases, data modelling, or reporting
REST APIs, integrations, JSON, or XML
Workflow automation, business process tools, CRM, ERP, ITSM, or case management systems
Agile delivery, Jira, Confluence, Git, CI/CD, or testing tools
Client-facing consulting, technical support, or business analysis
Requirements gathering, documentation, testing, or defect management
This role would suit a new graduate or someone who has already started their development career and now wants a clearer route into consulting, enterprise technology, and long-term progression.
You might be:
A junior developer looking for more structured development and mentoring
A software engineer who wants to move closer to enterprise systems and client delivery
A technical analyst with strong coding or scripting ability
A developer who enjoys solving business problems, not only writing code
Someone who learns quickly, asks good questions, and wants a career with room to grow
You will join a structured development pathway with:
Technical training before deployment
Ongoing professional qualifications and certifications
Coaching and support from Vantage Point Global
Exposure to a major technology consultancy environment
Real client delivery experience from early in the programme
Development into a specialist enterprise technology skillset
Clear progression routes into senior developer, technical consultant, platform specialist, or delivery roles
Health cash plan coverage
Cycle to work scheme
This is a chance to move from junior development into a high-demand area of enterprise technology.
You will build skills that are used across major organisations: workflow design, automation, systems configuration, integration, testing, stakeholder engagement, and technical problem-solving.
You will not be left to sink or swim. You will receive structured training, support, and coaching while gaining real consulting experience with one of the UK’s leading technology organisations.
Please submit your CV and answer a few screening questions through our careers portal.
We are especially interested in seeing examples of practical development experience, project work, GitHub links, portfolio work, or examples of systems, tools, or automations you have helped build or support.
