Java Developer / Senior Java Developer – “From Scratch” Greenfield Project, Exciting Financial Services Technology Start-Up recruitment

Introduction: Montash Associates have been engaged by a Financial Services Technology Start-Up who has just received a massive chunk of investment for a brand new service that genuinely looks set to change Financial Services / Investment Banking. We will assist in the acquisition of a Java Developer / Senior Java Developer to develop this brand new system.

The Organisation: A Financial Services Technology Start-Up that was formed in 2011. Investors and potential clients have flocked to the scene, and everything is in place for this group of high profile ex bankers and hedge fund managers to start providing their service. All that remains is to build the all-important technology platform behind the service.

The Team: You will join a small group of people who have come together to create something unique. You will be joining a motivated, talented and ambitious team to start building on this greenfield project.

The Project: This is a from-scratch, completely Greenfield project. This software will make a big impact on the financial services market. This team has a passion for Java Enterprise engineering.

The Role: The team are looking for a Senior Java Developer to lead development on the new system. This individual will have influence over the long term development of the software, working closely with other developers across the project.

The Package: This firm is looking for people that will join this company for the long term. Based on this, they are offering equity to this individual, providing he/she joins and delivers. This company will explode in a couple of years in terms of profits, so this equity will undoubtedly be the most attractive part of the package. The base salary on offer is around up to £75,000. Those who can’t see past the investment banking “one year base plus bonus” remuneration structure need not apply. This isn’t for everyone, but will surely be worth the while of the successful applicant when this company takes off.
