I have a 3-6 month contract role up for grabs in our brand spanking new Covent Garden office.</div><div>2. Next week is my last week at Global Personals and I wanted to say farewell (sort of).</div><div><br></div><div><b>Job first.</b> Global have a spot for a decent Ruby engineer. Someone who fancies a heavy technical challenge. The office is amazing, the team is (genuinely) incredibly talented and they are a bloody good bunch to work for.</div><div>I’m fully aware of what constitutes a decent day rate in the City so if you’re potentially interested, tell me what rate you want and we’ll have a chat.</div><div><a href="http://globalpersonals.theresumator.com/apply/3BSEPp/Ruby-Engineer.html">More info in the role here if you want it.</a></div><div><br></div><div><b>Farewell next.</b> I’ve decided to move on from globaldev/Global Personals. The sole reason is simply that I’ve been presented with an incredible opportunity with another company that was just too good to refuse. Why should you care? Well, you shouldn’t but the company I'm joining hire Python/polyglot developers mostly so I’ll no longer really need to harass the LRUG community to find decent talent, therefore you may not see me at the meet ups or on this list in future.</div><div>I’ve been a part of the LRUG community for a few years now and despite the fact that I’ve taken a bit of a beating over the years (figuratively speaking) from a small minority of you, I’ve also made some fantastic friends and learned a hell of a lot. I like to think that I’ve also helped some of you out in return. Murray, I owe you more than a pint. You run an incredibly successful group. I know better than most how stressful it can be and you do an outstanding job. If any of you fancy keeping in touch with what I’m up to, you’ll <a href="http://www.twitter.com/StevieBuckley">find me on twitter</a>.</div><div><br></div><div>That’s it really. Be nice to each other and feel free to pop around to <a href="http://www.meetup.com/HNLondon/">HN London</a> if you ever want to pick my brains on hiring or job seeking or advice on how to drink your own body weight in whiskey and not die.</div><div><br></div><div>So long and thanks for everything.</div><div><div apple-content-edited="true">
