Join us as an Engineering Manager

Want to do work that really matters?
At Checkatrade, we're building the UK's go-to home improvement marketplace. Every day, we help millions of homeowners find the right tradesperson for the job — fast, fair, and without the faff.

As our next Engineering Manager, you'll be at the heart of how we deliver value. Leading feature-focused teams across London, Lakeside and Barcelona, you'll drive delivery discipline, build strong engineering culture, and make sure the work we do really moves the needle — for our business and our customers.

Forget long lists. Here's what you'll actually spend your time on:

  • Leading high-performing engineering squads and helping them do their best work

  • Driving delivery of meaningful features that solve real problems for customers and trades

  • Collaborating closely with Product, Ops, Data and Commercial teams to get things done

  • Helping teams navigate complexity, unblock challenges and stay on track

  • Building a culture of ownership, clarity, and care, where people thrive

It's not about ticking every box. You'll do well here if you bring:

  • Experience leading engineering teams in a modern cloud environment (GCP or AWS)

  • A solid understanding of distributed systems, APIs, and service-based architectures

  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices

  • Enthusiasm for AI-assisted engineering, and the judgement to use it responsibly

  • Willingness to drive adoption of tools like Copilot, Cursor, Gemini, and internal automation workflows

  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills

  • A coaching mindset, with a focus on growing individuals and building team accountability

  • A clear, pragmatic approach to problem-solving, especially when the pressure's on

  • Flexibility and resilience in a fast-moving environment

We believe great work deserves great rewards. Here's just a taste:

  • Competitive salary + annual bonus

  • Health, well-being and learning support

  • Gym membership, Smart Tech Scheme and Cycle Scheme

  • Birthday or special day leave (your pick)

  • Buy & sell holiday scheme

  • 1 week's paid charity leave, and much more

How we'll get to know each other:

  • Initial chat with one of our Talent Acquisition Partners

  • 1st stage interview with VP of Engineering

  • 2nd stage with a Senior Engineering Manager

  • Final Stage with cross-functional peers

Need adjustments? Let your Talent Partner know — we're happy to help.

Ready to lead with purpose and deliver a job done right?
Apply now — even if you don't tick every box.
