The Student Loans Company (SLC) is on a major recruitment
drive to expand its technology function to support the
delivery of student finance for the UK Government and
devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern
Ireland.
The Student Loans Company has over 40, permanent digital
and technology opportunities for people with a variety of
skills and ambitions. The roles, which include Digital
Developers, System Testers, Architecture and Technical
Designers will be based within the organisation’s
Technology Group either in Glasgow or Darlington.
With a mission to enable access to further and higher
education for students across the UK, SLC is set to play an
important role in the delivery of the UK Government’s
freshly announced Skills for Jobs agenda. These new roles
will be instrumental to the delivery of SLC’s technology
strategy and driving forward higher education policy, while
helping to transform how student finance is delivered in
the future.
SLC’s Chief Information Officer, Stephen Campbell said:
“There has never been a more exciting time to join SLC as
we build on the progress already made in our multi-year
transformation programme which aims to deliver an
outstanding customer experience through use of new
technology.
“SLC was recently awarded Investors in Diversity
accreditation and is an organisation of scale with a range
of opportunities for personal development and supported
career progression. We are committed to developing the
skills of our people and giving colleagues the opportunity
to apply those skills, within a supportive and inclusive
team.
“Working in an environment that is similar in scale to a
medium sized retail bank, the new roles will be critical to
our delivery of an outstanding customer experience for
students, graduates and further and higher education
providers across the UK.”
As well as offering a competitive salary SLC offers a range
of benefits and rewards, including Civil Service pension,
