Hi Stevie,
That’s the first I’ve heard about it - has anything been posted about this before on the wiki or the mailing list? Why are you choosing to hire someone rather than to seek volunteers to do some of this work?
Thanks, Mike

Hello everyone,
As you may know, Wikimedia UK has been working with other organisations such as Creative Commons, Mozilla and Open Knowledge Foundation to build closer working relationships and collaborations between organisations working in the open space. We're currently calling this the "open coalition".
The work has progressed to the point where we are looking to recruit someone for a six month project to develop this more fully. There's a role profile and full details on the Wikimedia UK wiki here - https://wikimedia.org.uk/wiki/Open_Coalition_Project_Co-ordinator
The closing date for the position is Monday 3 February. Please do apply or, if not applying, please tell your friends!
Thanks and regards,
Stevie
