We need staff !

Post by Famous Memorabilia »

Hi All,
I am new to this forum so please forgive me if this is not the place to be looking for someone to hire!
But if it is, here goes:
I am the owner of a memorabilia business called Famous Memorabilia. Based in North London (Barnet to be precise!) we are expanding through out the UK and are seeking an experienced framer to whom will head up and run our in house framing department.
This is however no normal framing job, if such a person exists (and if one does I'll eat my hat) we need someone who is knowledgeable to their back teeth with how to frame the most bizarre things. What do I mean by this? well.... its in the name of the business I suppose, we sell high end memorabilia and have been doing so since 1999.
So, we are looing for someone who has a passion and knowledge of Sports memorabilia and can frame anything from a football shirt, to a football boot to a boxing glove or even a boxing head guard. But there's more, Boxing Robes, Film Props, even set props such as prop used bullet shells used on Skyfall movie and the likes. So the ideal person would be a sports nut and a film boff (see what I mean by is there such a person?!:)
We are just about to order the machine so the I am keen to find someone who knows a lot about the technology, we are not a normal framer so we will be not only using CMC's but also Laser Cutting Machines (Epilog)
Based on a mall start up work shop, we quickly envisage that we will grow to larger premises and be hiring more staff at start up. We are certainly growing our retail and on line operations so a person who has aptitude to change and growth and is willing to come on board from the start and get their hands dirty is also one of the skill sets I am looking for!
As is:
Computer Literacy,
Knowledge of Wizard and or Gunnar CMC & Photoshop and or Coral Draw design packages,

Anyway, anyone our there or have I completely wasted 10 minutes of my life typing :P

Hello and welcome,

There are at least a few people on here that would fulfill your requirements, but are running successful businesses themselves, not least due to their skill set.
