Are you a content and communications dynamo looking for a better work-life balance in a boutique agency environment close to home?

Only read on if you:

take pride in delivering your best work every time, for your own satisfaction and, to delight your clients and team. You won’t settle for simply ticking items off your list.
are a team player who enjoys collaborating, sharing the credit and are willing to get your hands dirty to get things done. You want to win without the ego and drama.
value working in a fun, positive environment that encourages excellence and personal growth while still putting family first. You arrive on time (and get to leave on time), are grateful for the flexibility you receive and don’t take advantage of it. You are also willing to put in a few extra minutes or hours occasionally to support the team and our clients to thrive when it matters most.
