Questions about these roles

How many lead and principal IT jobs in Scotland are there right now?

We are tracking 10 live vacancies across 9 source domains. The crawler revisits public careers and vacancy pages continuously and roles disappear from this page as soon as they come down, so the count reflects what is genuinely open today.

Can these roles be done remotely?

40% are advertised as fully remote and 60% as hybrid. Based on 5 roles that state an arrangement; 5 unknowns are excluded.

Which sources list the most roles?

The most active source labels right now are Duncanandtoddgroup, Redsquid, Energyvue, Plantandsafety and Lumacron. Every vacancy links to its public source page — we are an aggregator, not the hiring company.

Can you work from home as a IT professional in Scotland?

5 of the 10 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 2 fully remote and 3 hybrid. Fully remote means the advert states no office requirement; hybrid means it names a split.

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

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 CRM Manager, Service Desk Manager, Web Developer Architect (UI/UX), New Vacancy: Regional Engineering Manager (Northern England and Scotland) and Principal QA Engineer. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.
