Questions about these roles
How many permanent Software Engineering jobs in the UK are there right now?
We are tracking 152 live vacancies across 109 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.
What do permanent Software Engineering jobs in the UK pay?
The median advertised annual salary midpoint is £44,000, based on the 77 of these roles that publish a figure. The middle half of the market runs from £34,000 to £60,000. Day and hourly rates are kept out of this annual-salary benchmark.
Can these roles be done remotely?
52% are advertised as fully remote and 28% as hybrid. Based on 89 roles that state an arrangement; 63 unknowns are excluded.
Which sources list the most roles?
The most active source labels right now are Gembaadvantage, INDEZ Ltd, TechVilo LTD, Policyinpractice and Whiteswandata. Every vacancy links to its public source page — we are an aggregator, not the hiring company.
What other skills do these roles ask for?
Most often React, PHP, Python, TypeScript 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 software engineering specialist earn in the UK?
£44,000 is the middle of what is advertised here, in line with the UK IT median of £42,500. Read it as the midpoint of each advertised annual range rather than an offer: 75 of these adverts name no figure at all, and those are the ones where asking early is worth most.
Can you work from home as a software engineering specialist in the UK?
71 of the 152 live adverts here offer home working in some form — 46 fully remote and 25 hybrid. Fully remote means the advert states no office requirement; hybrid means it names a split.
Are there entry-level or graduate software engineering specialist jobs in the UK?
9 of the roles on this page read as graduate or junior level, which is 6% of what is live. Level is read from the job title, so a role advertised without one is counted as mid-level and may still be open to less experience.
What job titles are used for this role?
Employers on this page advertise it as Software Engineer, Senior Software Engineer, Web Developer, Software Developer and Senior Full Stack Engineer. Searching one wording and not another is the most common way people miss vacancies, which is why this page groups them.
How much experience do these roles need?
The largest group is mid level (66% of the page). Seniority is read from the job title, so a role that does not signal a level in its title is counted as mid-level.
