Job description

Python Developer - AI & Automation - London (Hybrid) - Up to £50,000

We're working with a growing technology-led consultancy that is investing heavily in AI, automation and internally developed applications.

As the business continues to scale, they are looking for a Python Developer to help build, enhance and support a growing portfolio of internal tools, automations and AI-driven solutions. This is an opportunity to join a business where technology is actively shaping the way teams work and where developers are encouraged to take ownership, contribute ideas and have a genuine impact.

This role would suit someone who enjoys building practical solutions, automating processes and solving real-world business problems. You'll work closely with stakeholders across the organisation, helping turn ideas into applications and tools that improve efficiency, productivity and user experience.

You'll remain hands-on technically while gaining exposure to AI technologies, application ownership and solution design within a collaborative and fast-moving environment.

What You'll Be Doing

• Building and enhancing internal applications, automation solutions and AI-powered tools.
• Developing integrations between internal systems, SaaS platforms and third-party APIs.
• Working directly with stakeholders to understand business challenges and translate requirements into practical solutions.
• Creating tools that improve internal processes, efficiency and user experience.
• Investigating and resolving issues across applications, integrations and automations.
• Exploring emerging AI technologies and identifying opportunities to drive business value.
• Supporting and improving existing internal applications throughout their lifecycle.
• Contributing to development standards, documentation and best practices.
• Working closely with both technical and non-technical teams across the business.

What We're Looking For

• Commercial experience developing with Python.
• Experience building applications, automations, integrations or internal tooling.
• Experience working with APIs and connecting systems together.
• Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
• An interest in AI, automation and emerging technologies.
• Someone who enjoys understanding business problems and building practical solutions.
• Confidence working directly with users and stakeholders.
• A proactive, pragmatic approach and a willingness to take ownership.

Nice to Have

• JavaScript experience.
• Exposure to Power Platform, Power Apps or Power Automate.
• Experience with Microsoft 365 technologies.
• PowerShell scripting experience.
• Exposure to AI tools such as Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or similar.
• Knowledge of SharePoint, Dataverse or Entra ID.

What's In It For You?

• Up to £50,000 salary plus bonus.
• Opportunity to work with modern AI, automation and application technologies.
• Clear progression opportunities as the organisation continues to grow.
• Private healthcare and wellbeing benefits.
• Enhanced family leave policies.
• A collaborative culture focused on learning, development and innovation.
• The chance to influence how AI and automation are adopted across the business.

Why This Role?

This is an ideal opportunity for a developer who wants more than simply writing code. You'll gain exposure to stakeholder engagement, solution ownership and emerging AI technologies while remaining hands-on technically.

If you've built applications, automated processes or developed tools that solve business problems and are looking for an environment where you can grow, take ownership and make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
