Senior Blue Prism Developer
Contract | Outside IR35 | £#removed#/day | South West/Hybrid

We're supporting a secure public sector organisation in the South West as they establish an in‑house automation capability and are seeking an experienced Lead Blue Prism Developer to help shape, stabilise and scale the function.

This is a hands‑on technical leadership role suited to someone who has successfully delivered enterprise‑grade automations and enjoys building capability as well as technology. You'll play a key role in helping establish the automation function from an early stage, shaping standards, delivery approaches and best practice while remaining close to technical delivery.

This is not a pure management role - we're looking for someone who remains hands‑on, technically credible and comfortable leading from the front.

• Helping establish and shape an emerging automation capability
• Providing hands‑on technical leadership across Blue Prism delivery
• Designing, developing and supporting enterprise automations
• Helping define governance, standards and sustainable delivery approaches
• Working closely with stakeholders to prioritise automation opportunities
• Supporting and mentoring capability as the function grows

• Strong hands‑on Blue Prism development experience
• Previous experience operating as a Senior RPA Developer, Technical Lead or Senior Blue Prism specialist
• Demonstrable experience delivering 10+ end‑to‑end Blue Prism automations
• Experience across the full automation life cycle, from process assessment through to deployment and optimisation
• Experience helping build or mature automation capability
• Comfortable working in stakeholder‑heavy, operationally complex environments
• Experience with in public sector, regulated or secure environments advantageous

• Outside IR35
• £#removed#/day DOE
• 6‑12 month engagement
• Hybrid working with regular onsite presence in the South West
• Due to the nature of the environment, candidates must be eligible to undergo enhanced background checks including 5 years UK residency.

This is an opportunity to shape an automation capability at an early stage in a secure, operationally important environment where the work has genuine impact. You'll have the opportunity to influence approach, delivery and maturity from the outset while remaining close to hands‑on engineering.
