We like to think we’re a little different here at enotions. There’s no men in suits. There’s no egos. There’s no annual targets and bonus-driven sales executives. Just nice, down-to-earth creative people who love the web and who are dedicated to doing the best for their customers.
What makes us really special is our consultancy. We can advise you on the dos and don’ts of planning your web site and strategy. We’re down to earth, plain-speaking and professional. And above all, we will provide you with real value for money.
Below are some of the key people within the company so you’ll know what we look like when you drop us an email or a phone call.
Rob Richardson, Director
Rob founded enotions with his wife at the start of 2002. The objective was to provide businesses with a down-to-earth, no-nonsense, professional service producing web sites to surpass customers’ expectations, and that objective still holds true over five years down the line.
With over 10 years’ experience scoping, designing and building web sites for some of the biggest brand names, Rob is well placed to scope exciting, but realistic, sites for enotions’ customers.
Rob makes up for his unhealthy love of curries by trying to run off his belly whilst listening to rubbish middle-of-the-road rock on his ipod.
Linnie Richardson, Creative Director
Having co-founded enotions with Rob, Linnie quickly established enotions as a credible web agency with her inspiring and effective web designs.
Having worked in both print and web for over 10 years, Linnie understands what motivates and influences people and likes nothing better than creating an incredible design that makes them fall off their chair with delight.
Actually, that’s a lie. She likes nothing more than shopping for clothes and sitting in her pottery shed throwing pots whilst singing show tunes.
Marc Palmer, Head of Development
Marc was saved by enotions in 2005 from a grey, process-oriented IT company in Blandford.
Having learnt to program before learning to walk, Marc now manages enotions’ IT infrastructure, technical builds and advises on latest technologies worth investigating.
He knows an awful lot about IT and sensible business process, and the team humours him by pretending to listen attentively whilst he eulogises about sensibly using technology to improve business effectiveness.
He also claims to be friends with countless rock stars.
Sebastian Grant, Lead Developer
Seb joined enotions in 2003 as their first main full-time developer. He is proficient in various programming languages and databases as well as being well versed with the latest build standards. He turns web sites out as if they are going out of fashion. This is why he rightly calls himself ‘the fastest developer in the (south) west.’
In addition to building sites, Seb oversees the ongoing maintenance to many of enotions sites, a role he is well suited for due to his easy manner and dedication to please.
Perhaps that’s why he’s such a hit with the ladies?
Jamie Gilman - Developer
Jamie is a Computing graduate with a passion for developing sites that deliver a fantastic end-user experience. His knowledge ranges from interface design to database design and web coding, but his real drive is in providing great usability and accessibility in web builds. He is committed to producing the best for the client and end-user which is evident in his thoroughness and eagerness to expand his skills.
In addition to site builds, Jamie is being moulded by Seb into the second fastest web developer in the (south) west. In return, Jamie enjoys providing Seb and the team with rubbish jokes. One day he may even get a laugh, you never know.
Patricia Furtado - Senior Designer
If you’ve seen any of our sites, you will have probably seen Pat’s work. Pat is our senior web designer and involved with most web projects.
She brings to any web project an excellent understanding of good usability and accessibility, twinned with design flair.
But Pat’s main strength is her ability to very quickly capture the essence of the brand and interpret it into an eyeball-popping design.
Pat’s sunny disposition can partly be credited to the glorious all year round sun that Lisbon gets and where Pat works.
Jo Oliver, Account Manager
Jo is enotions’ Account Manager and responsible for keeping clients happy and informed.
As an ex Virgin and Estee Lauder PA, Jo comes with packs of energy, underpinned with great organisational skills and determination to do the very best for her clients. Woe betide anyone who upsets her customers.
As well as managing accounts, Jo’s remaining time is spent keeping her two young inquisitive children from finding and listening to the enotions development team’s extreme rock music library.
Paul Roberts, Copywriter
In his ideal world, Paul would have been an international cricket legend. But with ambition outweighing his talent, he ended up swapping batting pads for notepads, and became a copywriter.
He has spent the last decade crafting copy for big businesses, particularly in IT and telecoms (writing both for the web and about it), setting the tone of voice for smaller companies and adding clarity to government leaflets.
His thesaurus is his second best friend, and he likes to punctuate his days slaving over a hot brochure by emailing radio DJs with cheap puns.
Janet Haydon, Finance and Accounts
Long suffering Janet, (long suffering because we leave all our own finances in such a mess she has to sort everything out, from invoicing to expenses to payments to end of year calculations), keeps enotions buoyant.
Responsible for company books for over 15 years, Janet is everyone’s favourite person in the company because she pays them all.
When not keeping her nose in the company books, or vacuuming, she likes to be out and about walking, or in watching England win the rugby (or not, as is often the case).
Jobs
We are always looking for good people to fill permanent and contractual positions within enotions. By good we mean people who are at the top of their game but are easy going and easy to get on with!
If you’re fluent in xml, perl, database design or you’re a top graphics bod, drop us a line or see our recruitment page.
We’re also on the look out for producers who know the web inside out and can help scope and drive business. If you fit, the bill, get in touch!
