Our client (a well-known pan‑European financial services group) is hiring a hands-on Java Developer to work on a business-critical in-house CRM built on legacy Java 7 / Java 8.

This role is not for someone who’s only worked in modern Java stacks recently. They need someone who is current on Java 7 or Java 8 — meaning you’ve used Java 7/8 in production within the last 2 years — and who is genuinely happy to work in a legacy environment (shipping new functionality, maintaining existing modules, and resolving incidents).

What you’ll do

  • Build new features in a legacy Java 7/8 codebase (in-house CRM)
  • Maintain and improve existing modules (readability, modularity, maintainability)
  • Troubleshoot and fix production incidents
  • Write clear technical/functional documentation
  • Collaborate with the wider team on testing and delivery

Mandatory (non-negotiable)

  • Java 7 or Java 8 commercial experience within the last 2 years (hands-on, production)
  • Comfortable working in a legacy codebase (and motivated by that challenge)
  • Solid SQL / database skills (MySQL ideal)
  • Build tooling exposure: Maven / Gradle / Ant
  • Working knowledge of Linux
  • Good English

Nice to have (not required)

  • Any CTI / dialler / telephony exposure
  • C# / .NET, T‑SQL
