Massively expanding

Hi All,

Some of you may know from other threads, that I work in IT. We'll we're expanding massively and on the hunt for 7 unix/linux engineers based out of York and 1 in London.

Here's the details

There is a requirement to rapidly grow our ULS/JASG teams. Currently we have 7 Unix Engineer positions available in York and one in London. For the next 2 months each person who is introduced during this time will receive a £2.5k “golden hello” after 6 months successful service. The job specs for these positions are available on the website

So..... if your interested get your CV's to me at danny@adamo.me.uk

The jobs specs are at http://www.ioko.com/NR/exeres/D403FC...56A01ABE02.htm and http://www.ioko.com/About/Recruitmen...es/Vacancy.htm

Oh by the way... we do all the Channel 4 sites, plus on-demand TV as well as sky and ITV....

Are there any salary ranges/benefits packages associated with the positions, or can't those be published?

Ah yes, the ones who don't talk in Microsoft acroynms, who don't get petrified when there's no pretty pictures of computers on the screen, and who can use a keyboard without instinctively reaching for a mouse every 30 seconds...

But let's not turn this into a debate on this thread as it's in Roadside Hotel.

Re: Massively expanding

Yeah, I'd seen those...it's all a bit HR-speak and the sort of promises every company makes, was just wondering if there were any ballpark figures to know whether it's worth chucking over my CV (job role's fairly similar to what I do now).
