Ideal Candidate:

• Strong written and oral communications skills: must be clear and organized when conveying information.

A quick note on the way we work:
• We are a boutique-scale company, with an entrepreneurial environment and relatively flat/fluid structure. As a result we all find ourselves “wearing many hats.”
• Our culture is important to us, and we’re successfully nurturing a cohesive, committed, and supportive team. Being the right “fit” is just as important to us as having the right experience, so we encourage you to be true and open with your personality.
• We are a rapidly growing agency and there is opportunity for growth if the applicant is a good fit.
