We're hiring!

Since starting MWD in February 2005 we’ve managed mostly between the two of us. However as we enter 2007 we’re seeing demand outpace our ability to serve our customers, and we’re very much in need of some extra resource. So we’re looking for one, or maybe two, people to join our small-but-perfectly-formed IT advisory outfit.

You’ll be a great fit for MWD if:
  • You have real understanding of software technologies, deployment best practice and the capabilities of the main suppliers in one of the following areas of the IT industry: information management (master data management, content management, search, information lifecycle management, information integration); collaboration management (portals, messaging, unified communications, “groupware”, and ideally emerging social computing environments); IT systems and service management (think ITIL plus some more business-focused management competencies); or business process management.
  • You have a love of learning, and of sharing what you learn with other people.
  • You have real commercial awareness, and will be able to prove that you can sell your expertise and yourself as an industry expert.
  • You have excellent communication skills – being able to demonstrate significant experience of both writing and presenting in English for a variety of technical and (very importantly) non-technical audiences.
  • You have experience as a consultant – ideally to both adopters of IT, and IT suppliers.
  • You’re a dynamic individual with strong organisational skills, who can thrive in a small but fast-growing team and who can manage their own time and prioritise their work effectively in a demanding environment.
  • You’re passionate about IT and its value to business, and you’re the kind of person who enjoys being challenged about their ideas, as well as challenging those of others.
Ideally we want people who have at least three years or so of experience as an IT industry analyst. Having said that, it’s by no means mandatory, if you’re a good fit in other ways.

Why would you want to work with a very small company like MWD? The answer is that we have a lot of ambition, skills, experience, expertise and influence in our area. We’re passionate about what we do and we have fun doing it.

What’s more we have a lot of opportunity for growth. People who come to MWD will have the opportunity to grow with us - and will be rewarded accordingly. Being small has its challenges, but we are growing 50% a year and our expectation is that business will continue to grow that quickly, or even more so, in the coming years.

If you, or someone you know, looks like they might have the kind of skills and experience that would fit our needs – and would be up to the challenge – please let us know.

Do you have to be UK based?
 
Absolutely not! Our top priority is to find individuals with the appropriate skills who share our approach and enthusiasm.
