Lead Web Designer for top London Digital Agency

Starting salary up to £30k based on experience and skills, plus brand new iMac

thrudigital builds websites, social networks, widgets and social media apps. We take ideas and turn them into reality. Become one of the nerds in our central London office.

You will join our friendly, fun and young-faced team of social media development junkies on a range of projects. We develop websites, social networks, widgets and social media apps for exciting and high-profile clients from entrepreneurs to large organisations including Sky, ITV and 10 Downing Street.

Your mission is to transform thrudigital’s design standards and capabilities, designing sites and apps to knock the socks off any leading web agency in the UK. As our design capabilities are still growing, your input as the lead web designer will have a transformational impact on the success of thrudigital for years to come.

As the lead designer, you will be involved in a range of work on a daily basis:

• Helping to plan out projects and come up with usability and design solutions collaboratively
• Ideas and feature design
• Designing (…obviously)
• Front-end coding when necessary
• Analysis and evaluation of usability solutions
• Research and blogging
• Development of your own projects if you wish

What you give us:

• You must be on the cutting edge of web design and design trends, and know the ins and outs of Web 2.0
• Always learning under pressure, whilst improving your own standards as well as ours…all the time
• Able to work with demanding clients to figure out solutions to complex usability problems
• Able to meet deadlines, manage own time efficiently, and work very quickly
• xHTML/CSS, JavaScript (PHP/MySQL/RoR desirable)

Just some of the things we love at the moment (not essential to have experience in these, but if you do it’s a bonus):

• jQuery
• AJAX
• Git
• Capistrano
• Cake
• Amazon EC2

We are a friendly team who are proud of each other and our achievements. We don’t work for objectionable clients or on projects that are set to fail. We take it in turns to be the daily DJ and there is usually something interesting going on in the background, but we like to get our heads down when we need to. We often take the afternoon off to down tools and discuss anything as a group that we think is interesting. We work in a fast-paced environment, and you will find that no two days are the same.
