Lava Row is always on the lookout for new talent, fresh perspectives and interesting people.

So, if joining a startup company and becoming an integral part in shaping its future sounds kinda appealing, give a shout.

Current opening: Strategist in Social Media, New Media & Emerging Media

Throw out the cumulative GPA scores, years of experience and/or involvement in professional marketing associations. Lava Row needs people who have what really counts: Curiosity, passion, integrity, imagination, positivity and common sense. Oh yeah — an obsession with social media and all things Web won’t hurt.

Please get in touch right away if your response to the following statements is a rousing “Hell yes!”

• You believe social media is about humans (communities, conversations and connections) — not buzzwords or technology fads.
• You believe the most effective advertising engages, involves and entertains the consumer; while weak, irrelevant advertising interrupts the consumer.
• You believe the best collaboration involves putting heads together, bringing in additional perspectives with diverse backgrounds and discliplines, and often comes from outside the four walls of the office: At a pub, after a couple of cold beers on a Monday afternoon.
• You believe clients should have access to your good ideas as soon as you develop them, even if the ideas are a little rough around the edges — NOT six months later, after multiple rounds of groupthink and served cold via PowerPoint.
• You don’t believe in the devil’s advocate. In fact, you want to punch the devil’s advocate in the face and throw them from the room.
