Mashable asked last week if Social Media Jobs Here To Stay? That in many ways is like saying in 1999 are these web jobs here to stay, there is no doubt that social media in the broader sense is here to stay, some tools and social networks will disappear, but IMHO pandoras box is open, and no one will be able to close it. Anyway, the point being is that big companies are “getting” in, and even if they don’t have “social media” in the title more and more job descriptions are going to include “must be familiar with blogging” “facebook experience a plus” etc. Check out Jeremiah Owyang’s long list of Social Media Strategists. Anyway, case in point is this executive search that Wert & co. is doing:

Wert & Company, Inc
an international recruitment and consulting firm, conducting executive, senior searches for dynamic companies and organizations across a range of disciplines and industries, specializing in marketing, brand strategy, design and innovation.

Wert & Company is seeking Digital Marketing Manager on behalf of one of the most celebrated, global design centric brands—to plan, develop and implement the effective (next stage) use of web-based technologies in support of their global business and marketing requirements. As the primary director, creator and evaluator of public-facing web channels, this person will bring new energy and perspectives to an already well established brand—to broaden the consultancy’s online presence, and foster more meaningful digital connections worldwide. As a member of the marketing communications team, this individual will collaborate with a small team of content generators to build a cohesive future-facing plan for the firm’s corporate websites as well as commerce sites and content portals.

Candidates must be champions of great design!
