PRWD

Due to continued growth we are looking to increase the size of our industry respected conversion optimisation team.

Who we are looking for

Our works covers analytics, user research, heuristic evaluations, development of test hypotheses, sketching, wireframing & designing user interfaces, and planning and delivering on-going testing programmes.

We’re not daft, we know that there are currently very few people out there who will have experience in all these areas, but you should certainly have a genuine passion for understanding how online experiences can be improved and the appetite to deliver optimisation programmes with our clients. You’ll be personable, genuine and have high integrity too.

What you can expect

You can expect to be working directly alongside our team and in-house with any of our phenomenal clients which include The North Face, Speedo, Schuh, Monsoon, British Cycling, The Student Room, AllSaints and Lakeland. You’ll be continually learning what techniques and experiences affect user behaviour. You’ll become an integral part of our team and someone who our clients trust, respect and look forward to working with.

If you are interested

If you are interested and you feel you have what it takes to become an industry leading conversion optimiser, irrespective of your experiences, please email interested@prwd.co.uk and tell us why.

I am delighted to introduce Lewis Marshall into my business as my new developer and right hand man.

I took Lewis on after he was presented to me by a local recruitment consultant. Although Lewis isn’t (as yet) as commercially experienced as some of the other developers I met with, once I met Lewis I was 100% assured that his natural talents and abilities will be of even more benefit to me and PRWD than if he would have had years and years of experience.

Lewis was also the only candidate out of the 8 that I saw during the recruitment process who actually referenced the job description and the position on offer in his CV – this initial bit of genuine interest in the role that Lewis provided proved to be a valuable marker in me establishing his suitability to work alongside me at PRWD.

In terms of the stages of recruitment, prior to meeting Lewis I had been having 1st interviews lasting between 1 and 2 hours with developers, with a 2nd stage interview planned in with a few of them. Due to the importance of this role for me, with the new person playing an integral role not just in developing websites and applications but also in helping to drive my business forward, I was convinced that I would need to meet each person at least twice in order to make a considered decision.

This all changed when I met Lewis, as I ended up offering him the position towards the end of our first meeting (on saying this it did last over 4 hours in total, so you could say this was 2 meetings back-to-back). In addition we did go a few drinks as part of this initial meeting, which for both of us was an important indictor as to whether we could work alongside each other and generally just get on well together.

What remains for me to say now is that I’m really looking forward to working with Lewis in a wide range of areas, and personally I’m truly excited at providing Lewis with the opportunities for him to really start fulfilling his potential.
