Viewing job: Junior Web Designer

On behalf of employer: Ashley Bolser Agency

Circa £16k + private healthcare
Yeadon, Leeds.

We are looking for a talented Web Designer graduate to join our rapidly expanding New Media team within the Ashley Bolser Agency. You’ll be working on various projects for a wide range of clients from large Bluechips through to SME’s and start-ups.

Your role will mainly involve mocking-up design concepts, repurposing existing designs and turning these into working XHTML/CSS pages. A genuine passion for W3C standards and accessibility are essential with a thorough understanding of optimising code for search engines.

We also expect a great attention to detail and a high level of work in everything you do. That’s because our clients include Nokia, ASDA, Callcredit, Budget Insurance, Barker & Stonehouse and many other big names and quite rightly they expect a high quality service, which you’ll help us deliver each and every time.

You don’t have to have tons of commercial experience and applications are open to recent graduates. However, you must be able to clearly demonstrate your capabilities via an existing portfolio of examples of your work, preferably online.

Because we’re a small and friendly agency, your hard work won’t go unnoticed. We’ll be thanking you for making sure projects run smoothly from initial brief all the way through to the end result.
