JAMES WILKINS
CEO • GRAPHIC DESIGNER • WEB DEVELOPER • ARTIST SEARCH & RESCUE DIVER • SHOTGUNNER • GAMER
James finished a Web Multimedia degree at Staffordshire University with First Class Honours before taking up the combined role of graphic designer and web developer at a local IT / website company. There he built up a broad range of graphic design, web coding and e-marketing skills and experience of practical application. After two years, he then moved into the same role for the Christadelphian Office, thus meeting and kindling a strong friendship with Mark. His job at the Christadelphian has allowed him to develop current skills, as well as pursue a wide array of new disciplines and interests such as concept art, animation, video editing, print design and graphic design, applying them in both paper- and web-based environments. James is a self-motivated, hard worker with transferable skills and a desire to deliver.
MARK NORRIS
PRINT DESIGNER • PROOF MASTER • WEB DEVELOPERTECH ENTHUSIAST • HIKER • GAMER
Having completed both college and university and finding himself out of work, Mark did a day’s work experience at a reprographic house – where he ended up staying for three years, rising to the position of Systems Manager. Following this, he moved on to become the Studio Manager of an advertising agency, where he stayed for six years. After being made redundant when the agency closed, he went to work at the Christadelphian Office, where he has worked for the last seventeen years, now holding the position of Design and Production Supervisor. Over the last twenty-five years, Mark has gained experience in a wide range of disciplines, including hardware and software maintenance, all aspects of print production, and website configuration and production. He has an excellent eye for detail and likes to ensure that all work he does is completed to the very highest standards.
OUR ETHOS
We try to work to the highest standards at all times, respecting our clients and putting maximum effort into all that we attempt. We pride ourselves in going that extra mile in all our projects.
OUR PROMISE
We strive to work with honesty and integrity in all aspects of our business, and respect our clients and treat them as we ourselves would like to be treated. This is the core of who we are.
OUR RESULTS
Our hard work and value for money has already benefitted over twenty organisations, most of whom are recurring customers. We offer a great selection of services and look forward to working with you.
HOW WE MET
Having met at our current workplace – the Christadelphian Office – we bonded immediately over our shared love of sci-fi. In many ways, we are completely different; James is outgoing and lives a full life, whereas Mark is quiet and likes to spent time at home. Yet we both have the same work ethic – keen to give 100% to everything we do, going above and beyond to ensure any task at hand is completed to the best of our ability.
After working together over the last four years, we have discovered that our strengths and weaknesses perfectly complement each other; the weakness of one is the other’s strength. Therefore, Incorruptible Design Consortium was born. We realised that, together, we could offer more to our clients than we could as individuals; and our shared faith, philosophy, values, and working style give us additional value beyond our collective experience alone – thereby offering better service to our clients.
FRIENDSHIP BASED ON SHARED FAITH, SOLIDIFIED THROUGH SHARED VALUES AND MANY YEARS’ COLLABORATION.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe there is very little honesty in business today; people often seek to make money through false impressions. We are different. At Incorruptible Design Consortium, we believe that honesty and integrity are important qualities and, by trying to show these qualities in all aspects of our business, we can provide additional value for money for our clients – far more than might be thought from something so simple. We have been influenced by our shared faith, allowing it to shape who we are and the way we interact with customers – fairly, respectfully and with a desire to help.
WHY ‘INCORRUPTIBLE’?
We wanted a word that reflected the philosophy behind our business, and communicate our unique selling point quickly. Starting with ‘honesty’, we spent time brainstorming possibilities and narrowed it down to Incorruptible Design Consortium, sometimes shortened to Incorruptible. When the domain was available, Incorruptible was born.
We are both Christadelphians, a worldwide group of believers who base their beliefs solely on the Bible. In the Bible there is a passage which compares life to running a race. In it, it says that athletes train their hardest to win a corruptible prize. However, believers are encouraged to live their lives in godly ways, in order to win an incorruptible prize. The Bible reveals this incorruptible prize as eternal life in God’s promised kingdom.
We know that we are far from perfect. However, we try hard to be the best we can now, to prepare for the future we both look for.
