Possible opportunity / vacancy for a web producer

11th May, 2009 by Alick

This position is now closed – thanks to all who applied

We’ve got an open vacancy at miggle. There are a number of ways in which we might fill the role – either part-time, full-time, as a job share or via a few regular freelancers, possibly on a retainer or as a buy out of an existing client base. This last option might suit someone who is self-employed, but feels they have got as far as they can on their own and would like the benefit of being part of a more established company where they’d get a chance to both work alone and as part of a team.

What I’m looking for is a good all round web producer. Someone who has:

* A broad knowledge of a range of skills – most likely HTML/CSS, PHP/MySQL, Flash, Google Adwords/Analytics and ideally a knowledge of some open source software as well as experience of using various APIs
* Experience of managing content – doesn’t really matter in which CMS, but an ability to write good SEO copy and an interest in a broad range of current affairs would be useful
* A real passion for the web – someone who actively uses social networks and has an understanding of what social media can do for businesses and consumers.

We can offer the right person a range of interesting projects to work on for both large and small businesses within our team of 11 people, with five of us based at our office in the centre of Brighton. Interested? Please get in touch with me, Alick, giving an outline of your experience, what you could bring to the miggle mix and what you feel you could get from working with us. Lastly, let me know on what terms you’d like to be involved.

Based in the UK’s silicon city – Brighton and Hove, East Sussex, contact miggle.co.uk for website development, content management and online media services in the UK and worldwide.
