When you move jobs, who you work with matters just as much as the technology you work with.
That's why I want to share a little more about the people behind this opportunity.
I know one of the owners of this established Edinburgh MSP, well through recruiting for the business. They are approachable, down to earth and have a great sense of humour.
I've also placed four people there over the last couple of years. The candidates are still there and speak highly of it. That gives me something more meaningful to share than the usual "great company culture" line
