There are some great social media thinkers here in Australia. More importantly, there are some great social media “doers”. And over the next few years I expect there to be a real demand for agencies who have real experience in this space and a NEED for professional and corporate marketers to understand how exactly you can integrate social media into your planning while delivering solid returns.
One thing that I do know, is that social media is about “connectors” … those people who are able to join the dots across different types of messaging, communication style and media. They are storytellers for a new age.
But how do you find these folks? Sure, you could look at Twitter. Or you could reach out to a blogger or two … but what if you are new to social media? What if you have a job that you need filled but don’t know where to look?
I may just have the answer for you.
SocialMediaJobs.com.au is a new site that I have setup to “connect the connectors”. The aim is to provide a meeting space for those with roles, with those looking for work. It will continue to evolve and grow … with specialised content on the SociaMediaJobs.com.au blog site designed especially for job seekers.
Both posting a job and applying for a job are FREE.
So what are you waiting for? Post your social media job now!
Done and dusted! Nice idea. (Wish I’d thought of it first)
What a fantastic initiative, Gavin. I think is a real milestone.

Sweet!
I spent a month in Sidney a few years ago and I was amazed by this city, probably one of the best places to work and to live.
