Contribute to the development of an Identity and Access Management system, evolve the Core platform, collaborate with teams, and improve code quality.
Summary Generated by Built In

Ever spotted a clunky workflow or messy bit of code and thought, “We can do better than this”? Great — that’s exactly the mindset we’re looking for.

For over 20 years, we’ve been building financial planning and analytics products that turn complexity into clarity. We’re constantly refining, learning, and improving — and we love people who bring that same energy.

What you’ll do

  • Contribute to the ongoing development and maintenance of our Identity and Access Management system.
  • Support the evolution of our Core platform to keep it reliable, secure, and high-performing.
  • Work closely with other teams to turn ideas, feedback, and customer needs into real improvements.
  • Get to know an established, complex codebase — understand how it works and help make it cleaner, safer, and more efficient.
  • Bring curiosity, initiative, and thoughtful problem-solving to your day-to-day work.

What you’ll bring

  • Experience building with React and C#.
  • Confidence digging into larger systems and understanding how pieces fit together.
  • An ability to spot issues and propose practical, elegant solutions.
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach — you like working things out with others.
  • A focus on writing secure, maintainable, and reliable code.

Why you’ll love it here

  • The people — our team is the #1 reason folks love working at Phocas.
  • Fun social events, plenty of snacks, and a genuinely supportive culture.
  • 10% professional development time — one day per fortnight dedicated to learning.
  • A sunny Sydenham office with loads of space and parking for all kinds of wheels.
  • Southern Cross health insurance, plus life, TPD, and income protection cover.
  • Extra paid parental leave.
  • Flexible/hybrid working options.

We’re an Accredited Employer and welcome global talent — but due to current visa settings, we can only consider applicants with existing NZ work rights.

Phocas is an Equal Opportunity Employer: All qualified applicants will be considered regardless of race, colour, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or veteran status.

Recruiters: We don’t accept unsolicited agency resumes.

What We Do

Phocas Software makes people feel good about data because it is easy to use.

All customers can collate and understand the key numbers critical to their work without the help of IT or a technical expert. Phocas has a low barrier to entry, reduces layers of data, decreases administration costs, and allows everyone within an organisation to understand financial performance better and act on it.

Phocas changes the way people think and work and allows you to be decisive and more confident in your decision-making. Phocas’ cloud data analytics application plugs into enterprise ERP systems and multiple other data sources.

Our team of 300 people located across the UK, Europe, Asia, Australia, New Zealand and North America live by our company values: “fun, fulfilling, forever.”
