    As a result of an insourcing policy decision we have 15 jobs going in IT. Since *apparently* everyone here works in IT this should be good news for you guys.

    The jobs range from network engineers, application programmers, wintel and unix engineers. These are all hands on techy jobs, no managerial places. Some may have on call and out of hours arrangements associated with them.

    The jobs will all be based in Warrington on a very nice campus out of town working for a FTSE100 company who probably don’t pay top wack but do provide good working conditions and an excellent package. I really enjoy working here as do lots of others. Rough figures are £26k to £33k plus whatever package you can get. Annual bonus payments are usually good, award winning pension, excellent training etc etc.

    None of these jobs are working for me 😉

    Cycling facilities are quite good with lockers, storage facilities and showers in most buildings. Many off road and quiet routes here from surrounding areas. I cycle in 15 miles every day when I can and love it.

    Interested? Email me on samur2@hotmail.com and I’ll pass you details of the jobs you are interested in and how to apply.

    Ohh, if we can advertise jobs we need some c# programmers on the other side of That Manchester (Hyde). Similar package for programmers, more for senior guys. Mail in profile 😉

    Top of my head, the associated managerial staff for these roles drive some kind of people mover, an old beemer and a vectra. Granted, the unix manager does drive an Audi but he’s only into TT’s, not mountain biking. (he is very fast though)

    Do you like power stations? Or Widnes?
    Warrington has a mention in the doomsday book. Rugby?

    It’s near Wales, Delamare and Rivington. An hour from the peaks and from the lakes with the bustling cosmopolitan cities of Manchester and Liverpool not 30 minutes in each direction.

    It can’t get much better than all of that.

    Not Risley business park then? I worked there at BNFL on my placement and was glad to get out as wasn’t too keen on Warrington but then got sent to a different company there whilst working for a consultancy a few years later.

    Hinton House? Can’t remember – this was 92/93. There was the main building that looked quite new but I was in an old building kinda out the back somewhere. It had some sort of secure courtyard and one time a lorry carrying something dodgy came to stay the night and we had loads of wimin protestors hassling us as we went into the office. Building was quite interesting as it had one of those carousel things instead of lifts. Fun to use as it never stops, once went over the top and thought it would turn upside down.

    I’m not in IT but well done to the OP for this. 8) and a virtual high 5

    Lived In Stockton Heath for a year. Great little place, some great riding well within an hour too. Nice road & cx routes from the door as well.

    Good man, op. I wish I wasn’t the only one on here not working in IT right now.

    Mud shark – you mean Chadwick House.

    Decent facilities for bike commuters these days, but still a seriously boring place to work.
