About OGL Computer
We are one of the largest employers in Wyre
Forest, employing over 250 staff across our
two sites in Kidderminster and Stourport-onSevern.
Our WebServices Team is responsible for
delivering first class ecommerce websites to
our customers and developing bespoke web
features to integrate with OGL’s flagship
business management software product:
prof.ITplus.
Working in WebServices
Working in OGL’s WebServices Team offers web developers and designers
the opportunity to put their skills to use on large, big-budget development
projects for organisations looking for ecommerce to take their business to
the next level.
The businesses our WebServices Team deals with are already OGL customers
who are using our flagship business management software suite. Called
prof.ITplus it brings together our customers’ business processes into one
streamlined, centralised system with the result of boosted profitabilty,
enhanced customer service, improved productivity and increased efficiency.
Our WebServices Team is responsible for the ecommerce aspect of
prof.ITplus and the delivery of bespoke, ecommerce websites which
seamlessly integrate with prof.ITplus. Our customers demand cuttingedge functionality and features which provide hyper-efficient back-end
management of processes such as stock management, sales order processing
and customer enquiry tracking. All of this whilst also delivering a website
that reflects the business brand of the customer along with all the other
features of an outstanding ecommerce website.
Our customers want OGL to unlock the potential of ecommerce
for them and that’s just what the WebServices Team does.
Why are we different?
OGL’s WebServices Team is not involved in ‘cheap and cheerful’ style
websites. Our team’s work propels businesses to record levels of profitability
and efficiency through complex, niche development and coding together
with excellent understanding of the commercial world, customer demand
and business processes.

Working in WebServices
WebServices Manager, 3 years with OGL
“Anyone joining the team will find a great blend of youth and experience in an established yet
growing department within OGL. Our work comes in the form of big, complex development projects
which means we need comprehensive skill sets and developers who take enormous pride in their
work in return for competitive pay packets. Newcomers will be joining a vibrant company with many
opporunities to get involved in fun events such as dragon boat racing, mud running and company
football matches for charity.”
Lead Web Developer, 11 years with OGL
“I spend a lot of my time working on new functionality and special customer projects. I’ve written
a number of new features and pieces of software that have started life as bespoke requests from
customers and are now part of our core product offering; an online reward-points system being
a recent example. I’ve come a long way since the one-year placement I did here as a university
student in 2002.”
Web Developer, 4 years with OGL
“Prior to joining OGL I was a self-employed web developer and took the unusual step of offering
to work at OGL on a one week trial basis to see if my skills were suited to working with prof.ITplus.
Four years on I’m still here so the trial was a success! The learning curve has been steep but I have
been rewarded by being given some really meaty development projects to work on that have tested
me and allowed me to grow as a developer.”
Web Developer, 11/2 years with OGL
“I live locally to the OGL offices and have always been a self-confessed ‘gadget freak’ so working
here has appealed since the days I used to drive past it on the way to college. The guys in the team
have a superb amount of knowledge; 54 years’ worth in web and software development between
the three longest-serving members of the team so I make it my business to learn as much as I can
from them to help me with my career.”
