CURRENTLY FREELANCING!

Having spent solid 5 years at a well-known insurance company at the deep-end, I'm currently breathing 'fresh air' with added skillsets – Web Design & Building. But, now I'm contemplating to join a company as a full-timer who'd be happy to exploit what I can offer. Any thoughts?

All query, offer and discussion considered – but I'm still very available as a freelancer at a reasonable rate!
