web design exeter

Sound in Theory's visual and web design agency is based in Exeter – the historic capital city of Devon. We find that being based in Exeter allows us to provide our clients with a more personal, affordable visual and web design service than design agencies based in cities with higher living costs than Exeter. We also find that Exeter is a brilliant and inspiring city for our creative team to call home, with impressive architecture, vibrant urban areas and a thriving arts scene.

Junior Coder Vacancy

We are seeking an intrepid Junior Coder to join our fairly geeky, but super cool team of techies.

The work will be primarily in c# and .NET, however a background in this isn't essential; we will consider anyone with a healthy enthusiasm for coding, provided they are versed in at least one server-side language such as c#, PHP or Python, and are comfortable with database applications and programming.

Applicants must be keen to learn. Mac fans will certainly be considered (we already have a few), though the majority of work will be conducted using Visual Studio on a PC. Applicants will need to present at least one application / program / pet project of theirs, and chat us through the code and neat things contained within it. Salary will be appropriate to experience and skill level.

To apply for either position please send details of previous work/ portfolio, a CV and covering letter to enquiries@sitdap.com

Closing date 31st March 2010

Junior Designer Vacancy

We like to make websites that are nice to use and pretty to look at, and are looking to add a new Junior Designer to our current team.

No knowledge of web development/coding is necessary (we have plenty of nerds to worry about that stuff). We are seeking someone to design the look and feel of websites using Adobe Photoshop. We will consider applicants of varying ability but they will need to have a portfolio (or evidence of design experience), even if its not web based.

If you don't have much web experience but are passionate and willing to learn, then Sound in Theory's (very friendly) team, who have been making websites for ages, will be able to provide you with more useful knowledge and experience than 20 university courses put together!

Salary appropriate to experience and skill level. Applications without an existing portfolio will not be considered.

To apply for either position please send details of previous work/ portfolio, a CV and covering letter to enquiries@sitdap.com

Thank you very much for a truly wonderful website, database and everything else you have all worked so hard on for the last few months. It is a great achievement and I really believe we have the best website out there amongst our competitors.

Richard Walton, Founder and CEO | Global Vision International

We are now onto our fourth website designer and Sound in Theory are head and shoulders above the competition. Not only are they very reliable and professional, they are capable of delivering a creative, cost effective product within an agreed timeframe. They are a pleasure to work with - I cannot recommend them highly enough.
