Senior SAS Developer

As part of a large scale global data transformation programme you’ll join a global team within data engineering & development supporting BAU, legacy, decommissioning and transformation work.
 
What you’ll be doing
 
Working with internal customers, you’ll analyse business needs and translate these into solution options within the SAS space. You’ll be working with a global team with both onshore and offshore resource to support your work.

You’ll work across SAS EBI (DI Studio & Enterprise Guide) and SAS V9 (Base & Macro). You’ll also get exposure to Azure Cloud, Oracle & Postgres SQL data warehouses.

As the role moves more towards decommissioning, you’ll have the opportunity to re-train and get skilled up in modern cloud based data solutions.

The business has been through various acquisitions over the past few years, so there is a lot of work to be done to get this harmonised across the board.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a global leader in the financial services sector, who have committed to heavy investment in data & technology and want to be seen as best in class.

As one of the more senior members of the team, you’ll be tasked with managing and mentoring junior members while they work alongside you in doing the above. You’ll be coming in as a guide with experience assisting and supporting someone else’s’ growth, alongside managing your own.

What experience you’ll need to apply

• Experience coding using SAS EBI (DI Studio and Enterprise Guide) and SAS v9 (Base and Macro)
• Technical knowledge of SAS data warehouse design.
• Experience with data warehouse storage solutions (such as Oracle and Postgres)
• Experience managing, leading or mentoring a team or junior team members
• Analytically inclined and a strong development background
• Bonus for experience working within a financial services business
• Knowledge and understanding of Agile and DevOps methodologies are a bonus

What you’ll get in return for your experience 
A base salary of up to £80,000 plus bonus and a comprehensive benefits package. This includes an attractive shares program, a matched pension that can reach up to 18%, and substantial discounts on various products. Beyond these, they are firmly committed to the continuous learning and development, offering numerous opportunities to grow and enhance your skills through training courses/days.

They deeply value work-life balance, which is why they’ve adopted a hybrid working model that requires team members to be present at their Guildford office one day a week.
