We are currently tracking 454 live vacancies matching hybrid lead and principal IT jobs in the UK, advertised by 247 different employers. 94 of them were first seen in the last seven days. The most active employers in this slice are Orixdigi, Grizzlypeaksoftware, Ittrp and Realtechnicalsolutions. Every role is detected on the employer's own careers page rather than reposted from another board, so what you see here is the vacancy as the employer wrote it.

Of the 454 roles, 74 publish a salary. The median advertised ceiling is £85,000. The middle half of the market sits between £50,000 and £110,000, so anything above the upper figure is a genuinely strong offer for hybrid lead and principal IT jobs in the UK. Contract day rates are annualised at 230 working days a year, so permanent and contract pay compare like for like.

On working pattern, 100% are hybrid and 3% are contract rather than permanent. By seniority, 100% at lead or principal level. Filter by any of these on the left.

The technologies that come up most often in hybrid lead and principal IT jobs in the UK are Python, AWS, Azure, React, Java and Salesforce. That co-occurrence is counted from the live listings on this page, not from a fixed list, so it moves with the market.

Questions about these roles

How many hybrid lead and principal IT jobs in the UK are there right now?

We are tracking 454 live vacancies across 247 employers. The crawler revisits employer careers pages continuously and roles disappear from this page as soon as they come down, so the count reflects what is genuinely open today.

What do hybrid lead and principal IT jobs in the UK pay?

The median advertised ceiling is £85,000, based on the 74 of these roles that publish a figure. The middle half of the market runs from £50,000 to £110,000. Contract day rates are annualised so they compare against permanent salaries.

Are these contract or permanent roles?

3% are contract or fixed-term and the remainder are permanent or unstated. A quoted day rate is treated as contract even when the advert does not use the word.

Which employers are hiring?

The most active right now are Orixdigi, Grizzlypeaksoftware, Ittrp, Realtechnicalsolutions and Nxzen. Every vacancy links straight to that employer's own careers page — we are an aggregator, not the hiring company, and there is no middleman between you and the application.

What other skills do these roles ask for?

Most often Python, AWS, Azure, React and Java. That is counted from the live adverts on this page rather than a fixed list, so it tracks what employers are asking for this month.

How much does a IT professional earn in the UK?

£85,000 is the middle of what is advertised here, which is 55% above the £55,000 median across UK IT as a whole. Read it as the ceiling an employer is advertising towards rather than an offer: 380 of these adverts name no figure at all, and those are the ones where asking early is worth most.

Are there entry-level or graduate IT professional jobs in the UK?

Not right now — every live advert here signals mid-level experience or above. Graduate intakes are seasonal, so this is worth checking again rather than reading as a permanent state of the market.

What job titles are used for this role?

Employers on this page advertise it as Engineering Manager, Solutions Architect, Lead Software Engineer, Solution Architect and Lead Data Engineer. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.
