If you are interested, please send your CV and salary expectations to careers@9web.co.uk along with a portfolio of your work, indicating your role in the production cycle for each site.

We would also be interested to hear your thoughts on this site (http://www.9web.co.uk) and perhaps some suggestions on how you would improve / enhance / streamline it.

Go on, we promise not to take it personally!

We realised a long while ago that the old site just wasn't working for us anymore and it was time for a change. More than just a coat of paint though, so we went back to the drawing board and thought about our strategy before embarking on this process.

This site is the result of much head scratching, lots of careful analysis of where we want to take the company, a new logo and full rebrand, information design to define the structure of the site, creative design to develop the look and feel and many painstaking hours of production to realise the vision of the design team.

Fitting all this in around client projects was a huge challenge, of course. But we stuck to the task and have made it out of the other end. Not that it ends here. Far from it. We are committed to constantly improving the site and would love to hear what you think about any aspect of the new site.

Please send your thoughts to support@9web.co.uk, we very much look forward to hearing from you.

9web worked in partnership with Unified Solutions to deliver a new web presence for the Centre, with 9web delivering the look and feel for implementation by Unified on to the Immediacy CMS platform.

The website aims to engage with a diverse range of international stakeholders across a wide spectrum of roles in the field of further education.

Tara Kennedy - Marketing and Communications Manager at City & Guilds said:

9web were brilliant to work with considering that we were at times very difficult clients with loads of changes and amendments.

The team understood exactly what we wanted and worked incredibly hard to make it happen. We're really grateful, because without their hard work and patience there is no way we would have ended up with the brilliant site we now have.
