[LRUG] [JOBS] GOV.UK and Government Digital Service seeking permanent and contract developers

[Chris Parsons]

Probably goes without saying: but GDS is an extremely fine place to work and full of smart, talented and friendly people.

If you’re lucky enough to have an opportunity to work with them don’t pass it up.
