Never Stop Learning
Web design doesn't stand still, and neither do we. Attend conferences, learn from your colleagues or browse our office book library with the latest books from the best authors on a wide range of skills including the entire A List Apart series.
Parent-Friendly
We started young and a lot of us have grown up together, so unlike many agencies ours is packed with parents. As a result we're more understanding of the pressures that parenthood can bring, so we support the childcare voucher scheme and offer flexible working hours around school pickup times.
A Message for Agencies
We don't work with recruitment agencies, sorry.
We Value Our Team
Mistakes happen but they give you a chance to learn and progress. We encourage a supportive atmosphere to keep a positive and engaging environment, and we recognise excellence too.
We want our workplace to be a place where you can be the best you can, and we're proud to encourage diversity and promote talent.
Graduate Opportunities
We're also on the lookout for talented people that are looking to kickstart their career.
If you don't have much experience but you're bursting with enthusiasm then please email post@edwardrobertson.co.uk and we'll see if you fit the bill.
"Edward Robertson is great to work for - we all love what we do and it's a great atmosphere for pushing each other to do better work."
