Goodbye Ghost, Hello School Stickers (I start my new job in July)

Posted: 24th June 2013 at 2:35 pm

Now that I’ve officially handed in my resignation letter, (after a weekend of trying to keep the news quiet – it’s only fair that my boss hears it from me, and not from Twitter), I can now announce that on the 19th July I will be leaving Ghost Design, ready to continue my career as a web developer at School Stickers.

I’ve had a good time at Ghost, with the position offering me the opportunity to learn a range of new tools and techniques (Sass, Git, Lemonstand, et al), but I feel that I’ve somewhat outgrown it (too much of a focus on frontend technologies), and the desire to move onto bigger and better things lead me to School Stickers.

I’m sure that once I start there I will be posting more about the company and my role, etc.. but for now, lets just say they have a really cool system for promoting good behaviour in schools, which you can find out more about at Carrot Rewards and Classroom Carrots.

Anyway, now that I’m leaving, Ghost Design has a position open for a new web developer, so get your CV and portfolio ready, and you could be taking over my job.
