Some of the more interesting employment opportunities we've spotted this week include:
The Drake Hotel is hiring a
public relations manager on a 12-month contract to help the hotel while its current PR manager is away on maternity leave. The person that takes on this role will be responsible for continuing and building upon the Drake's already in place PR initiatives. According to the job positing on its website, three years of publicity experience is required to be considered for the position, and those with public relations experience in the hospitality, food and beverage or nightlight industries will be preferred. The deadline to apply is March 20.
Top Drawer Creative, a local ad agency that focuses on working with companies that have a social good aspect to their business, is seeking to fill multiple positions. The firm is hiring a
content and community manager, an
account executive, and a
communications manager. The deadline to apply for the first two positions is this Friday; the deadline for the third position is April 5.
Mobile developers that would like to ply their trade for a slightly different organization are in luck. The
Ontario Institute for Cancer Research is looking for a
mobile web developer to help create front-end webpages for the organization's researchers. Experience working with the iOS and Android SDKs are required (sorry, Windows Phone evangelists). Additionally, experience working with JavaScript libraries like Mantle and JQuery Mobile is also a must. There's no definitive deadline on this one; the OICR will keep the positing up until it fills the position.
Lastly,
Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, is hiring across multiple positions. All told, they're looking to fill 14 positions. If the prospect of never having to wear another a pair of pants to work is appealing to you, then check out the
company's job board; although Automattic was started in San Francisco, its more than 300 current employees all work from home, and are located in 36 different countries.
