London based Drupal developer wanted

We are a small Digital Creative agency based in Clerkenwell London

We’ve been asked by a client to provide a proposal for a content management system for a number of their public facing websites. The client is an agency group who provide learning and training materials for public and private sector organisations within the UK.

The system we deploy must be able to handle conventional text and image content as well as video and embedded flash content types.

The sites to be launched initially will not have huge amounts of content, but will grow over the following months. It’s anticipated that two more sites will need to be launched later in the year. There will be a certain amount of sharing of content across the four sites.

Design templates across the four sites will be very different and items will include blogs, video blogs, other rich media heavy pages and ordinary text and image editorial pages. We’ll be designing the front end templates and providing semantic, valid XHTML / CSS for integration with the back end.

Admins within the client organisation are not necessarily hugely technically competent. We’d like to give them some sort of intuitive WYSIWYG editing environment for text, and, if possible, in browser editing, resizing and optimisation of images.

We think that Drupal provides a good solution for their needs, both in terms of requirements, scale, cost and (open source) cultural fit.

The timescale for the project is likely to be from four to six weeks from inception to live.

We would like the developer to work some days of the week at our office. Rates are nogotiable.
