Proclaim Developer

Hybrid working available | Professional Services

At Standard 8, we’re exclusively representing a professional services business where Proclaim isn’t a bolt-on. It’s the core system the operation runs on, day in, day out.

This is a busy, grown-up environment. High volumes. Complex workflows. Serious data. And a leadership team that actually understands the difference between having Proclaim and running it properly.

They’re hiring a Proclaim Developer who wants ownership, not tickets. Someone who understands that workflows don’t fail because of code alone, but because they weren’t designed with reality in mind. Scale, pressure, edge cases – all of it matters here.

You’ll be trusted to think before you build, to challenge weak assumptions, and to make decisions that hold up when the system is under load.

What you’ll actually be doing

Taking end-to-end responsibility for Proclaim changes, from initial scoping through to delivery

Running proper discovery with legal, operational and senior stakeholders to understand how work really flows

Building and maintaining Proclaim in a live, high-throughput environment where downtime and bad data are not tolerated

Designing workflows that shorten handling times, protect data quality and don’t crumble at scale

Writing and tuning SQL for reporting and operational insight

Reviewing existing setups and calling out where Proclaim is introducing friction, risk or unnecessary complexity

Acting as a calm, pragmatic technical voice during change, focused on outcomes rather than theory

What you’ll need to bring

Proven, hands-on experience developing in Proclaim

Strong SQL Server skills, particularly around reporting and data integrity

Experience scoping work properly before building anything, and managing expectations when trade-offs are needed

The confidence to work directly with non-technical stakeholders and keep conversations grounded and productive

A mindset geared towards fixing root causes, not applying short-term patches

This role’s for someone who takes real pride in building solid, lasting systems. No micromanagement, just proper ownership of a platform the business truly relies on.

f that sounds like your kind of setup, Standard 8 would love to chat.
