We are hiring!

We at Focus are looking to recruit a junior to middleweight web designer / builder to join our young and enthusiastic team based in Southville, Bristol.

Day-to-day you'll be:

- producing fantastic creative visual ideas based on our customer brands and requirements. This might be a single banner ad or helping design an entire eCommerce store.
- using standards compliant XHTML and CSS to build functional web templates from creative concepts.

A background in producing cross browser, accessible code would be key to the role.

And you may also be doing other stuff including:

- working closely with the technical team on a variety of briefs and at various stages throughout a project.
- attending design presentation meetings with our business development team and communicating directly with our customers on design related issues.
- liaising with the account management team to ensure customer requests, which might be web site amends or technical support - are managed, completed and communicated throughout the team and back to the customer.

So we're looking for applicants with:

- a portfolio of previous designs and examples of any site 'builds'.
- strong knowledge of up to date XHTML and CSS, together with W3C-WAI compliance.
- commercial experience in the appropriate software including Fireworks or Photoshop, and Flash would be an advantage.

We're offering a salary of somewhere between 16k and 20k, in a relaxed working environment and a chance to forge a career in the direction that you choose, with future opportunities in either the design or technical side of web development projects. Oh, and all the Diet Coke you can drink.

If you're interested then please initially send a CV and letter all about yourself to:
