Hi Everyone,

We have had lots of emails over the last few weeks from people looking to advertise to compsoc members, with Jobs, Events etc... So here's a big email with plenty of opportunities you may find interesting.

  1. Oxford University Jazz Society is looking for an IT Officer
  2. Sofmor (Social Learning Platform) is looking for a Back End Developer
  3. Sanctuary Search are recruiting for Bank of England

Hope your second week is going well!

Kind Regards,
Sam Lanning
Secretary


1. Jazz Society is looking for an IT Officer

The Oxford University Jazz Society is looking for an IT Officer to deal with the website, mailing list and any IT-related things. If you are interested in potentially doing this, send an email over to jazz.society@studentclubs.ox.ac.uk.



2. Sofmor (Social Learning Platform) is looking for a Back End Developer

Hi

I'm Managing Director of Sofmor, a unique and exciting social learning platform aimed at uni/college students - we tend to explain it best as facebook meets blackboard/moodle- and we're after a back-end developer/CTO + co-founder. We've already gathered interest from investors, educators and students alike who can't wait to see a prototype. The lead engineer at Facebook London, whom I had the pleasure of meeting recently described our product as exciting and fulfilling a real need facing students/learners the world over.

Our team so far consists of myself ( Economics grad Uni of York 2011) - I'm the business/creative lead, a Web Designer (3rd year UCL Computer Science), and an experienced front-end developer (worked with leading organisations such as GSK, Allianz, Aegon). Now we're after our final missing piece - an experienced back-end web developer (technical requirements available at sofmor.com/bewd/

I'd be grateful if you could pass on this email to anyone you think might be interested - in return we're not only offering equity but a salary as well - plus the potential rewards are massive - a similar site in America recently raised $5m.

All the best,

Jay Shah
Managing Director @ Sofmor
