Headscape has a position available for the kind of person always looking for new challenges and experienced in marketing and managing startup projects.

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 The post you are viewing is out of date and almost certainly no longer accurate.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.

For nearly eight years Headscape has been producing outstanding websites for our clients. However, although we enjoy delivering sites for our clients, that is not the end of our ambition.

For some time now we have been actively developing our own projects both online and off.

We have developed Boagworld.com, a prominent source of web design information. The award winning Boagworld Podcast is the longest running and most popular web design podcast catering for all those who design, develop and run websites on a daily basis. It has a vibrant community and is beginning to generate significant revenue for Headscape through advertising.

Headscape has also developed its first product – Getsignoff. Getsignoff.com is a tool for managing the design sign off process and is aimed at freelancers and web design agencies. Initial sales have been encouraging, but we would like to grow and market this product further.

Finally we have also started running workshops and consultancy clinics to further broaden our revenue streams. As with getsignoff, these need further promotion and management to become truly successful.

We have no shortage of ideas and have put some of them into action. However, what we need now is somebody to champion these ideas and take them forward. Are you up for the challenge?

What we are looking for

We need somebody who has experience in managing and promoting startup projects. Somebody with drive and enthusiasm. Somebody always looking for a new challenge.

We are looking for somebody who could:

Grow and help monetize Boagworld
Relaunch Getsignoff and champion its development moving forward
Manage and promote upcoming workshops
Assess the feasibility of other ideas as they emerge and put together business plans for those with potential

However, most of all we are looking for somebody who can help us shape the non service side of our business. In consultation with the Headscape directors you would form your own role, identifying and pursuing new business opportunities.

Is this for you?

So are you interested? No doubt you have questions. Why not get in touch by emailing enquiries@headscape.co.uk. Please include a CV and any thoughts you might have as to how you see the role developing.

Actionable Insights

Paul has the ability to see what is hiding in plain sight. He validated ideas under consideration and provided new, actionable recommendations. The most valuable insight was illustrating how our issues were symptoms of an inefficient UX project team structure.

Genuinely brilliant

Paul is genuinely brilliant to work with. He’s funny, thoughtful, and really good at meeting you where you are. He matches my energy, communicates clearly, and always seems to know how to say the right thing. Working with him feels easy, constructive, and properly enjoyable.

Magazine Interview

Demonstrates his prowess

As we talk, a pronounced pattern in Boag’s patter becomes apparent: he enthuses about a topic, demonstrates his prowess and then knocks himself down with a swipe of self-deprecation.

An inspiration

Paul is an inspiration, I only wish I’d worked with him earlier in my career. His ability to understand and break down problems and offer advice, drawing on his many years of experience is unrivalled. He genuinely wants to get the best out of you and your organisation and you can’t ask for more than that.

Invaluable

Medecins San Frontieres, being a decentralised international association, faces challenges in meeting the needs of a diverse global audience. Paul and the team at Headscape have been invaluable in helping us see the potential of digital for doing this. They have helped us recognize the changes needed to engage with our connected audiences, bringing clarity and innovation to our digital strategy.

Entertainingly Informative

We can count on Paul to be entertainingly informative. When we bring him to speak at our workshops, people walk out of the session energized and with a better understanding of how a multichannel journey should be assessed and optimized. Thanks Paul!

Moves the Needle

It’s not a question of whether I’d work with Paul again, but what we’re doing next. He takes the time to deeply understand your business and goals, then moves the needle across the growth levers that matter most.
