About the perfect candidate:

- You'll believe that Edward Tufte is fundamentally right

- You'll agree that the way businesses get finance in the UK is ripe for disruption and get a serious kick out of being part of that


UPDATE 19/6/13: Job changed to be an "hourly rate" job, rather than a fixed price. Sorry I'd missed this when posting initially - there's clearly nothing like enough info for anyone to quote a fixed price :-)
