Spectrum It Recruitment Limited

This is a varied leadership role for someone who still enjoys delivering projects themselves.

You’ll manage a team of six Project Managers, while spending around 40% of your time managing your own customer projects. The work is varied, with project sizes ranging from short two-day engagements through to larger implementations of up to 200 days, with budgets up to £200k.

The company delivers SaaS solutions to customers across public and private sector environments. This role has become available due to an internal promotion, so you’ll be joining a team with existing structure, support and knowledge around you.

Project Management Team Lead

£60,000 - £65,000 + bonus + benefits
Remote-first, with monthly travel to Bedford
Must be within 2 hours of Bedford

You’ll be responsible for helping the team deliver well-run projects across time, cost, quality and customer expectations. That means coaching and supporting Project Managers, reviewing project documentation, handling escalations where needed, improving reporting, and making sure risks, dependencies and blockers are properly managed.

You’ll also have your own portfolio of projects, so this is not a purely people-management role. You’ll stay close to delivery, customer communication, project governance, change control, billing milestones and stakeholder management.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll line manage and support a team of six Project Managers, helping them with delivery challenges, personal development, customer communication and project governance.

You’ll manage multiple customer-facing SaaS implementation projects yourself, working across internal teams, customers and stakeholders to keep projects moving.

You’ll review documentation, support reporting, manage escalations, improve team capability, and help maintain a consistent standard of delivery across the team.

You’ll also contribute to monthly reporting across the Professional Services function, looking at performance, project progress, team capacity and delivery quality.

What you’ll need

You’ll need previous leadership experience, whether that is as a Project Management Team Lead, Lead Project Manager, Senior Project Manager with mentoring responsibility, or a similar role.

You must have experience delivering SaaS implementation projects in a customer-facing environment.

You’ll need to be comfortable managing at least 10 concurrent projects, either directly or across your team.

You’ll also need to be eligible for NPPV3 screening, which will take place once employment commences.

Experience across Agile, Waterfall, Scrum or Kanban environments would be useful, as would PRINCE2, PMP or Scrum Master certification, but these are not essential. Public sector project experience would also be beneficial.

Location and working pattern

The role is remote-first, but you must be based within two hours of the Bedford office, as you’ll be expected to attend the office around once per month.

There may also be occasional travel to customer sites or other company offices.

Salary and benefits

Salary is £60,000 - £65,000, plus a discretionary bonus scheme.

Benefits include 25 days’ holiday plus public holidays, workplace pension, life assurance, company sick pay, Perkbox, professional membership support, eyecare support, cycle to work scheme, flu jab vouchers, free will-writing service, access to independent financial advice, and a SAYE share scheme.

Interview process

The interview process is two stages, including meetings with the Head of Project Management.

If you’re an experienced project delivery professional who enjoys leading people but still wants to stay close to hands-on project management, this would be a strong role to explore.

If this Project Management Team Lead role would be of interest APPLY NOW or contact Ruby Calver at Spectrum IT Recruitment.

Lead Ruby Developer - Inside IR35 - Public Sector

Details

Role: Lead Ruby Developer

Rate: £600 per day outside IR35

Location: Remote

Start date: ASAP

Contract length: Initial contract until 30th October 2026

Project context:

This project focuses on the strategic rewrite of the existing API layer between the GiT CRM and Website platform. The current architecture has created operational and maintenance challenges, and a full rewrite is required to deliver a scalable, maintainable, and long-term solution.

The proposed approach will separate the API into two distinct components:

A CRM-facing API responsible for interfacing directly with CRM data and services.
A facade layer responsible for interfacing with wider platform services including GiT, GSE, and Apply.

This decoupled architecture will improve system resilience, simplify testing, reduce dependencies between systems, and minimise the impact of future CRM changes on wider business platforms. It will also provide a cleaner foundation for future development and integration work.
The initial phase of the project is focused on technical discovery, architecture planning, and documentation. An experienced Architecture Technical Lead is required to lead this phase, including the production of technical plans, system diagrams, API specifications, and delivery planning. The intention is for this individual to continue into the delivery phase of the API rewrite alongside additional contracted development resources, ensuring continuity and minimising knowledge loss between discovery and implementation.
This work is considered critical prior to commencing development, as it will define project scope, identify technical dependencies, determine resource requirements, and establish delivery timelines.

Discovery & Documentation Phase Deliverables
During the initial discovery phase, the developer will be responsible for:

Producing detailed data flow diagrams covering CRM and platform integrations
Defining the target architecture and integration approach
Writing API specifications for:
The CRM REST API
The GiT Facade API
Producing Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
Supporting project estimation, resourcing, and implementation planning

Required Skills & Experience

The ideal candidate will have:

Strong Back End Ruby/Ruby on Rails development experience
Proven expertise in API design and development
Experience producing API specifications using Swagger/OpenAPI
Experience working with CRM integrations and complex system integrations
Technical architecture and documentation experience
The ability to lead technical discovery through to delivery
Experience working collaboratively in open, cross-functional environments

This could include practical use of tools such as:

OpenAI Codex
Claude Code
GitHub Copilot
Similar AI engineering tools

You should understand where AI can improve delivery and productivity, but also where strong engineering judgement is still essential.

What They Are Looking For

Must-haves:

5+ years of relevant Ruby on Rails experience
Strong Ruby fundamentals and sound object-oriented design
Experience working effectively in a mature monolith codebase
Strong SQL skills, with confidence writing and understanding queries
Testing experience across unit, integration and end-to-end levels

This is a great opportunity to join a growing, well-invested SaaS business where the role has real scope, responsibility and influence.

You will be joining a small engineering organisation that values people who can contribute beyond the ticket in front of them, collaborate well and help improve how engineering works.
