[BAA-ebulletin 00652] Freelance web designer

[BAA electronic bulletins service]

As part of our near-term strategy to significantly increase the BAA's 
online presence, Council has decided to ask for expressions of interest 
from a suitably qualified person to take up a freelance web designer 
role. This person would be responsible for a radical overhaul of the 
Association's website using open-source tools, the management and 
maintenance of our online presence and the commissioning and management 
of content.

Council envisages offering a 3-year contract, reviewed annually for a 
fee in the region of GBP 12-14K per year. We would expect the necessary 
commitment to average around 15-20 hours per week although workload will 
be variable.

The successful applicant will have a large amount of autonomy to work 
towards the goals set by Council and we would expect this activity to 
start sometime in the 2nd quarter of 2012. Membership of the BAA is not 
essential but a good knowledge of amateur astronomy, the Association and 
its objectives will be expected.

To express an interest in this exciting opportunity and to receive 
further details please send an e-mail to webdesign at britastro.org before 
Friday, 10th February.
