----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Dear All, As you are all map people this might be of interest. As a result of the forthcoming move of Bartholomew - HarperCollins Cartographic to Glasgow from Edinburgh it is likely that there will be a number of vacancies for experienced cartographers. These will probably be on both the editorial (compilation, map design and specification) side and GIS/DTP side (though the distinction between the two is getting very blurred). Familiarity with Arc/Info, Adobe Illustrator, Corel or similar on Sun workstations and Apple PowerPCs would be a distinct advantage. As we are not sure of the exact requirements yets there are no formal adverts, but as usual with us anyone interested should send their CV to Alex Elder, Cartographic Director, Bartholomew, 12 Duncan Street, Edinburgh, EH9 1TA, Scotland. When we say they are held on file we mean it - it is not unusual to be contacted months later if a suitable vacancy comes up (it happened to me!). Salaries range up to about 15,000 pounds p.a. We are also definitely looking for a RDBMS expert proficient in SQL, ORACLE and the administration/development of a large database. Some familiarity with GIS (Arc/Info) would be helpfull, but is not essential. Please contact Jim Irvine, R&D Manager, at the above address. Press adverts for this post should appear soon in the Scottish media. Please do not contact me about either of these as I am not involved in the hiring of staff - I am just the one with email. regards, Tim Rideout Bartholomew - HarperCollins Cartographic
