After two years and nine months at Scotweb as a Web Developer I have handed in my notice. I have been offered a job at Valley Technology as a PHP Application Developer. It’s a step up professionally and would lead to more exposure to a wider variety of clients and development processes. They’re currently based in Leith but by the time I start (my notice period is two months) they will have moved to shiny new offices in the centre of town. This will be an exciting opportunity and I can’t wait to get started at Valley Tech.
Congrats!

Joe - March 31st, 2007 @ 2:35 amAgain, congratulations Olly! Sounds like a great company – thier really pushing the OSS.
Their current office is actually just around the corner from me in leith, but I guess we won’t get to be neighbours.

Congratulations though! Maybe we could have a chat at Refresh or the Highland Fling!
