We are deeply committed to diversity and inclusion and wish to have a diverse workforce. We positively welcome applicants from all under-represented groups, including minority ethnic groups and those with disabilities. We are proud to be affiliated to the Black Leadership Group (BLG).

As an employer we are committed to promoting and protecting the physical and mental health and well-being of all our staff. York College has signed up to the 'Mindful Employer' charter for employers who are positive about mental health. We are also a certified Disability Confident Employer. Disability Confident is a government scheme designed to encourage employers to recruit and retain disabled people and those with health conditions.

To undertake this role candidates will demonstrate experience in the actual development of web applications and a good working knowledge of HTML, CSS, Javascript, Python, Flask and Django frameworks, UX design, testing strategies and good practice in documentation.

At the same time, the candidate must have the communication and organisational skills needed to support learners to be successful in their assessments as learners will need to be guided and encouraged not only in the required outcome (a great looking, usable app that meets the brief) but also in the process (good practice in design, development, testing and documentation) and to do so they will need the support of an experienced professional in the field.

If you would like to apply for this post please submit your application as soon as possible, as applications will be reviewed as they are received and the vacancy may close earlier than the listed closing date.
