Communicopia [that's where I work!] is looking for a web creator to join our team and work with some of the world's most exciting and inspiring social change organizations and sustainable businesses. If you like the thought of spending your days doing world-class work that matters, in a fast-moving and fun environment with a killer view, then this is the job for you...

Job Description

The Big Picture: our ideal candidate is a remarkable combination of a CSS wizard and a Drupal theming pro, with strong skills in Drupal development. Good design sensibility is essential, lead designer skills are a serious bonus. This position will test your aesthetic and user interface design skills from start to finish.

The exact job will depend on the skills of the perfect candidate, but one thing is for sure: your work will be diverse and ever-changing. You might start your week churning out beautiful CSS to match a design, move on to custom developing a Drupal site, and finish your Friday with a little Flash animation.

You may be asked to design wireframes, prototypes, or be tasked to design multiple website concepts, buttons, and banners. You could be asked to maintain client websites and give technical training when appropriate, and will be called on to participate in peer reviews of our website projects to improve the quality of our work.

Our skills wish-list is as follows (but we are more interested in finding the right "fit" for our company than in nailing every one of them):

About this Site

A hodge-podge of random thoughts, musings, and links – sometimes about social change, sometimes about technology and the web, sometimes about yoga, and occasionally about knitting. Sometimes (because I'm a Canadian girl with deep roots in the British Isles) I even write about the weather.

I'm a yoga teacher, founder of Yoga for Geeks, and a freelance web writer, strategist, and project manager. I also help to co-create the amazing Web of Change Conference, every September in beautiful British Columbia.
