Bored of writing code no one outside engineering ever sees the impact of? This one's different. The Advocate Group is partnering exclusively with a high growth, leading FMCG business to find a Full Stack Engineer to join their in‑house technology team. This is a business scaling fast, investing seriously in its digital platforms, and looking for someone who can build across the stack while sitting comfortably in a room with stakeholders who don't speak code. You'll be central to shaping the tools and platforms that support the next phase of the company's growth, genuinely visible work, not background maintenance.

What you'll be doing:

  • Designing, building and shipping features across the full stack, from front end through to back end and database
  • Working directly with Product, Project Management and non‑technical stakeholders to translate business needs into technical solutions
  • Operating within an Agile framework sprint planning, backlog refinement, daily stand‑ups, retros, the lot
  • Writing clean, well‑tested, maintainable code and reviewing others' work to keep standards high
  • Helping shape technical decisions and architecture as the platform scales
  • Adapting quickly as priorities shift this is a fast‑moving environment, not a set‑and‑forget one
  • Chipping in on the reduction of technical debt as you go, rather than leaving it for someone else

What we're looking for:

  • Proven full stack development experience, comfortable moving between front end and back end
  • Strong communicator someone who can talk to stakeholders as easily as they talk to other engineers
  • Genuinely agile in how you work: comfortable with ambiguity, changing requirements and fast iteration
  • Adaptable mindset happy to pick up new tools, frameworks or ways of working as the business needs them
  • A collaborative approach; you'll be working closely with Product, Project Managers and fellow developers
  • Solid grasp of modern software engineering practices version control, testing, code review

This is a business that's growing quickly and wants engineers who'll grow with it real ownership, real influence on the platform, and a seat at the table when decisions get made. If that sounds like your kind of challenge, we'd like to hear from you.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation, or age.
