Headscape’s endless quest for world domination continues as we seek to recruit yet another member of staff. This time we are seeking a designer. He or she can work from home so this job is open to anybody in the UK.

Warning! The post you are viewing is out of date and almost certainly no longer accurate. For more topical posts, check out the “related reading” at the bottom of this page or drop me an email with any questions.

You need to be passionate about all aspects of web design. We want somebody that is obsessed with web standards, fanatical about good usability and with a track record of building accessible sites. You need to be up on the latest trends and techniques, comfortable whether talking about AJAX, semantics or validation.

However, most of all we are looking for somebody whose work can blow us away. If you think you can impress us with your eye for design and have a stunningly good portfolio then we want to hear from you.

You will need experience not only in design but also in website construction. A good grasp of XHTML and CSS are vital. A solid working knowledge of DOM scripting wouldn’t go amiss as would experience in flash.

If you are interested, drop us an email containing a CV and a list of sites you have worked on (including details of how you were involved). However, be warned, if your sites are not built with standards and don’t demonstrate a good grasp of accessibility, usability and semantics then you won’t get very far!

Headscape isn’t a huge company but we like it that way. We are very much a lifestyle business that believes people “work to live” rather than “live to work”. You’ll have flexibility in your working hours (as long as the job gets done), will get to work on sites for household names and we will ensure that you have enough time to keep up with our rapidly evolving industry.

Because you will work primarily from your own home we are accepting applicants from anywhere in the UK. So, if you are good at what you do then get in touch. We would love to hear from you.
