We Are Hiring - Support Engineer & Application Developer| DocTech

Written by Ruban Rajasooriyar | Thursday Jan 21, 2021

Due to continued growth DocTech is now recruiting for two new roles to join our Technical Team delivering solutions to new and existing customers.  DocTech is at the forefront of Document Management Services helping organisations to improve the way they store, process and share business information.  We have seen a significant increase in demand since the UK Government announced the need to work from home where ever possible.

Based in Bury, Manchester we have been supporting the needs of our customers for the last 35 years.  Your work will be varied and provides a great opportunity for growth.  Currently all work will be remote with an option to work from the office if desired. As the global pandemic continues to alter how we work, it is not clear moving forward whether all work will be remote or from the office.  Depending on the role some travel to customer sites may be required in the future.
