Working in the Software Development team at BHF, I have been able to learn and apply new technologies. One of the best things about my role is the great colleagues and getting to collaborate with teams across the business.
Alastair - Software Developer
Part of my role is to constantly look at how we improve a number of key systems that supports our shops, stores and teams operate and raise vital funds for BHF, part of this is making sure the user experience is as seamless as possible and that the systems are adapted to meet the needs of the users, weather that be ability to change colour pallet to make it easier for those visually impaired or just simplifying language so no one feels left out. James - Product Owner
I joined as a Programme Manager and have since progressed through a number of different roles. My career mirrors in a lot of ways the growth of technology at the BHF - from being a team of 50 operating very much as a back-office IT function, we're now 150 people strong, with a Chief Technology Officer on the Exec Group, and a raft of transformation programmes that will enable our technology to be sector leading.BHF is an extremely collaborative organisation by its nature, and ultimately technology is all about connecting people better. All our work is focused on developing and improving the customer experience, so working closely with other parts of the organisation is critical to being able to do this. There's a real willingness to help other people and support cross-organisational objectives, working together to deliver some quite complex things.Nic - Director of Technology, Marketing & Digital
