We are pleased to announce that the collection of promotional material we recently created for ‘Central Life’ – a development of one and two bed apartments in Brighton, has been a huge success for our client, INplace.

Working from the concept ‘A slice of life’, we created a visually appealing brochure, ‘coming soon’ advert and ‘launch’ email to promote this new development across Brighton. We used brightly coloured overlays, clear space and layers to represent the different levels of life available at this great location.

We Love is looking for a super talented Senior Tech Lead to join the family (Perm). To help grow the team’s technical and industry skills and take We Love to the next level.

You have been working in the industry for at least 7 years. Defining and shaping teams and projects. Making magic happen for top tier clients at top agencies. You know the pressures and complexities of the job and of a client’s needs. You know how to stay on top of it all – managing expectations and communicating them at every turn.

You will be working across a multitude of top tier clients and projects ranging from Apps to dotCOM to Campaign. You have a love of all things digital – see the beauty, reason, logic and commercial behind yours and others work. Someone who brings ideas to the table, and the processes to make them happen. You can see opportunity to improve and have a desire to do so. You want to develop the team and raise their game… You have a natural hunger for success and the desire to help develop the creative output across the company as a whole. You may be looking for the next step up in an agency that is going places.

This role is not all about management. You can handle a development from start to finish on your own or in a small team environment. You care about the Go Live and make sure that every pixel is perfect, every animation is thought through, every link is tested, so that at the end of the day you can leave the office proud of a job well done, knowing the code is as good as it possibly can be.

You understand commercial considerations, offering good insight into company development, while at the same time seeing technical solutions that can benefit the smallest of projects. You are visionary.

Technical Skills:
Front and backend superstar… with all the usual languages / skills. Obviously, you will have leanings… but show us what you got. We adapt to the right people.

Stuff we use…
AS3   //   Flash   //   HTML  & XHTML   //   Javascript and JQuery   //   CSS3   //   ASP.net   //   PHP   //   Python   //   Ruby (on Rails)

Be able to define and improve processes, as well as technical development, with the knowledge to document this. You are capable of QA your own work as well as your teams – always improving, always aware – and able to pass that learning on to others.

People skills:
You will be client facing, managing a team and responsible for inter-team communication. So being able to communicate – up, down and sideways – being able to listen, and know what to say and when, is an absolute necessity. You will be able to manage yours and your team’s time whilst ensuring a project’s plan, risks and status are fluidly communicated – keeping PM’s happy and the client even happier.

Stress? What stress? You’ve seen and done so much within this industry that nothing is going to surprise you.

And as always… a sense of humour is mandatory.

About We Love:
Born just two and a half years ago by two creatives, when agencies were playing the safe game, we had the vision to do things differently, letting our creative do the talking and the results speak for themselves. We create space for our staff to become the best they can possibly be… and then help them raise their game even further. We lead with intelligence, never leaving the creative process at home; we strategise, design and build thoughtful and robust digital for our clients. Always taking one step forward and changing the game.

We’ve already won numerous awards and accreditations, including: Chamber of Commerce ‘Most Promising New Business 2010′, we’ve been shortlisted for ‘Star Start Up’ in the HSBC awards and were placed No. 5 in the Top 100 Global Creative Agency Annual in 2009.

Our aim. To be a top 100 NMA agency by 2012. Leading the digital space and producing award winning work for our clients and ourselves.

Benefits:
• Good and competitive salary… especially for outside London
• Bonus scheme in place
• Training allocation per year
• Social events
• Pension scheme
• 5 a day fruit bowl
• Office massage
• Magazine subscriptions

I love digital. Its what makes me tick. The ability to extend a brand online through interaction and engaging content. The ability to touch your audience in ways which were unthought of just 10 years ago.

And lets face it it is still the early years for digital. We are still stumbling around in the dark making sense of technology and behaviours that are entirely new to us complex and unique bipeds.

However, there is one thing that humans have being doing for a long long time… and that is story telling. We love a good yarn, be it to pass down life’s learnings to our offspring or to just entertain. So to celebrate here are some brands that ‘do story telling’ really very well.
