You’ll have experience in leading a Data engineering team to achieve business outcomes at pace and have experience in actively managing the growth of individuals within the team
You’ll have excellent all round knowledge of an ETL platform and be able to leverage this knowledge to steer the direction of our ETL platform and how we build modern Data-driven solutions in AWS Cloud and through our Lake House
You’re comfortable in reaching technical trade-offs between short-term team and long-term business needs
You have strong understanding and a passion for Data Engineering and Software development best practice
You’re excited about recruiting and developing great engineering talent
You communicate actively with peers, your reports, and can handle escalations to stakeholders
Experience in any of the following would be great, however we will help you develop in these areas too
Working within a finance or regulated environment
Working with the cloud/AWS and the opportunities that it brings

Experience with our technology stack (Ab Initio (multiple applications), Control-m, Snowflake and AWS Cloud services)
Use of Agile delivery (Kanban/Scrum)
Where and how you'll work
This is a permanent position and is based in our Nottingham office. We’ve adopted a flexible hybrid working model - one that creates the opportunity to work in your own way, but also provides great spaces for in-person collaboration.
We’re big on collaboration and connection, so you’ll be based in our Nottingham office 3 days a week on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Many of our associates have flexible working arrangements, and we're open to talking about an arrangement that works for you.
We are committed to creating a level playing field and seek to create teams that are representative of our customers and the communities we serve. We’d love to hear from you if you identify with a typically under-represented group in our industry and are particularly keen to hear from women and ethnic minority candidates.
What’s in it for you
Bring us all this - and you’ll be well rewarded with a role contributing to the roadmap of an organisation committed to transformation
We offer high performers strong and diverse career progression, investing heavily in developing great people through our Capital One University training programmes (and appropriate external providers)
Immediate access to our core benefits including pension scheme, bonus, generous holiday entitlement and private medical insurance – with flexible benefits available including season-ticket loans, cycle to work scheme and enhanced parental leave
Open-plan workspaces and accessible facilities designed to inspire and support you. Our Nottingham head-office has a fully-serviced gym, subsidised restaurant, mindfulness and music rooms.
What you should know about how we recruit
We pride ourselves on hiring the best people, not the same people. Building diverse and inclusive teams is the right thing to do and the smart thing to do. We want to work with top talent: whoever you are, whatever you look like, wherever you come from. We know it’s about what you do, not just what you say. That’s why we make our recruitment process fair and accessible. And we offer benefits that attract people at all ages and stages.
We also partner with organisations including the Women in Finance and Race At Work Charters, Stonewall and upReach to find people from every walk of life and help them thrive with us. We have a whole host of internal networks and support groups you could be involved in, to name a few:
REACH – Race Equality and Culture Heritage group focuses on representation, retention and engagement for associates from minority ethnic groups and allies
OutFront – to provide LGBTQ+ support for all associates
Mind Your Mind – signposting support and promoting positive mental wellbeing for all
Women in Tech – promoting an inclusive environment in tech
EmpowHER - network of female associates and allies focusing on developing future leaders, particularly for female talent in our industry
