My company, More Solutions Ltd, may shortly have a programming vacancy.
I'm not sure how to describe what we would be looking for, other than "a programmer". Much of the software we work with is in proprietary languages so we'd be looking for someone who can turn their hand to languages they've not seen before, but we do also do a lot in PHP so some familiarity with PHP would likely be a necessity. However, I need to be clear that from our experience the majority of people who "do" PHP are not programmers, and we *are* looking for a programmer - someone who understands the merits of code re-use, error handling, etc. From an infrastructure point of view, all our internal and externally hosted servers run Linux (mostly Ubuntu Server), and we all make our own desktop choices (most run Windows but mine is Ubuntu). That said, some of the applications we work in are Windows-only, much to my frustration!
Anyway, we don't currently have a job spec, and we may not take anyone on at all; it will very much depend on whether we find someone we like. (There will definitely be a vacancy in the next couple of weeks, but we won't fill it unless we find someone we're happy with.) Salary would depend on experience and skills. It's a small, interesting and varied company with interesting clients, and if a high salary is the main priority then unfortunately (spoken as the recipient of a salary here!) there are probably better places to go looking. But CV's or other enquiries welcomed.
