Why we like it: Seth Godin is our hero. Let’s start there! This is a unique opportunity to join his team to support the suite of services and experiences he curates. No need for me to sell this one anymore. I’ll let Seth do it for himself, “I can’t tell you a specific job title or even a salary. All of our jobs pay significantly higher than industry standards, with excellent benefits (including lunch every day), flex time and most of all, an environment that’s based on mutual respect, responsibility and alacrity. We eagerly seek diversity of background and skill set, and are also focused on alignment of attitude and energy.” So if you’re up for a challenging, ambiguous but also creative and exciting environment, then do as Seth says, and apply below so you can “make a ruckus.”
