Who is World Without Walls?
Meet the team
Paul Masri is the founder & owner of World Without Walls and he will be your first point of contact for any project. With more than 15 years' experience creating websites and a PhD in computer modelling, no brief will be too daunting. Fortunately he understands business & marketing and prides himself on communicating in plain English so you don't need to be worried about being bombarded with technical jargon.
Cath Thomas joined World Without Walls in April 2011. She has an MSc in Computing Science from Imperial College, London and a couple of years work experience as a software engineer but had been working in sales and research & project management rather than IT until April. Although she had been doing some programming and website development work 'for fun' in her spare time! Since joining the team, Cath has mainly worked on developing apps for the iPad and supporting with website work.
Join the team
We don't plan to be expanding anytime soon. However, we are always interested in talented and motivated individuals so you're welcome to send us your CV with online portfolio and cover letter by post or email.
We may not be hiring immediately but when we're ready to recruit, we'll be in touch again if you appear to fit the bill.
If you're a recruitment company, please see our special notes for you below.
If you're a freelancer based in or near Bristol, do get in touch. We may not be able to use your services straightaway but we may be ready for an exploratory chat.
Help us fill the gaps
If your expertise is in any of the following, we'd love to hear from you. We like to foster a close working relationship with freelance professionals who are good enough to rave about. The services we are most interested in are Wordpress,jQuery and Android.
A note for recruitment agencies
We already work closely with a couple of recruitment agencies who we have built a good relationship with. There's always the possibility that we might look to alternatives, e.g. for specialist recruitment needs, so we don't mind being approached... we just don't want to be inundated.
Please take a note of the following request as it will give you the greatest chance of getting our business:
- Make your first contact by phone, introduce yourself and let us know why you think we might be interested. It helps if you already know a bit about us first, so if you're reading this, that's a good start!
- If we're interested, we'll probably ask you send us an email with your details.
- Do not add us to a mailing list and do not send us any CVs without an explicit request from us. Even if we decide to use your services, we will ask to finalise the terms before receiving any CVs – it just keeps things clearer regarding who introduced whom.
- We'll probably be happy to receive a catch-up call every 6-9 months, no more. Ask us first.
- Finally, note that we treat unsolicited emails that come with CVs as spam, and it can lead to your company becoming blacklisted.
