We have open vacancies for a part-time project to be run during the spring term of 2025.
Provisional information about the projects we are recruiting for, and information on how to apply, is given below.
We’re currently waiting for our spring clients to confirm their funding. But we’ve opened up the application form while we wait to let you see what information we need and so you get more time to fill out your own application.
Details of the Posts
The project will run from semester 2 in 2025. The base pay rate is £12.70-£12.86 per hour, with an additional holiday payment on top of this. Payment is made monthly in arrears.
It is expected that the projects will be run on campus but with some scope for flexible and hybrid working. Each team will set their own core hours when all team members must be present and available for work (for example, for a weekly team meeting). Additional hours can then be worked at a time and place convenient to each team member.
The posts are open to any undergraduate student studying at the University of Manchester who is eligible to work in the UK, including students who will graduate this summer. Note that students must be resident in the UK for the duration of the project (apart from weeks taken as holiday) to be eligible for the work.
We especially welcome applications from members of groups who are under-represented in the software engineering profession. We aim to recruit diverse teams for Imago, containing a mixture of experienced team members and inexperienced but talented junior team members. Working for Imago is a great way to bootstrap your personal portfolio and add some real development experience to your CV.
