For a candidate with a breadth of experience, and who meets several of our bonus criteria, we'd pay up to 120,000 + options. Benefits * Stock options (you'll own a piece of the pie) * Parental Leave Policy entitling new parents up to 26 weeks of leave on full pay * A technology budget to spend (as you see fit) to set up your work environment * Extensive training and development opportunities * A good contributory pension * The opportunity to learn from some amazing colleagues across the company, while creating something that impacts the way we build technology
