Queen ends hunt for an IT director
But new web editor post opens up
Posted in IT Director, 18th October 2006 09:17 GMT
The Queen has ended her search for an IT director (http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/Page5529.asp), with applications for the post closing on Monday, and the advert already removed from her website.
However, the head of the British Monarchy is still looking for a web editor to tart up her website - www.royal.gov.uk - which claims 1.5m page views a week.
The job pays £30,000 a year. The successful candidate will be responsible for: "Ensuring a compelling, effective and appropriate online presence for the British Monarchy."
The ad asks for: "Expertise in Photoshop, Content Management Systems, HTML, and statistical packages is a prerequisite. Knowledge of WC3 and Government web standards would be an advantage."
In exchange you'll get 15 per cent employer contribution to a pension scheme, "generous paid leave entitlement, an excellent staff restaurant and a supportive team atmosphere."
