Role Summary
We are seeking a Magento / Adobe Commerce Platform Specialist to join our Technology practice, supporting complex Digital Commerce platforms in the Telecommunications domain, with a strong emphasis on Mobile contract and device sales and supporting Fixed Line Consumer offerings where required.
