*** Welcome to the JOTW network.
*** To submit a jobfor sharing on JOTW, please provide the job title, organization or company, and location and send it to Ned at lundquist989@cs.com. Provide a link or contact info so people can check out your listing or follow up if interested.
Posting a job is free. The newsletter is then posted at www.nedsjotw.com. Recruiters can submit up to three jobs for free. Each job listing may be posted once in the newsletter for free
I request that you do not send pdf files that I have to copy and reformat. I prefer you provide your very brief job description in an email rather than an enclosure. I must limit the size of your position descriptions (generally to 500 words or less) as I have a size limit on the newsletter (HTML and text content can not exceed 123 KB), which equates to about 7,000 words total.
*** This is a cooperative service. It relies on your participation and contribution. As you receive the benefit of this free newsletter, you should also send in jobs you learn about. This is especially the case when there are job listings in the companies that you work for.
*** To sign up for JOTW or Ned’s other newsletters, visit this site:

*** Milestone!
Help us recognize the soon-to-be-upon-us 1,000th JOTW newsletter milestone. We’d like to hear from those of you that have found JOTW to be a valuable resource and community for communicators. We’re especially interested in hearing from those of you who have found a job (or two, or three); found a candidate (or two, or three); made an important connection; or regained some sanity or dignity. We have set up a webpage—appropriately called “JOTW Connect!” at www.nedsjotw.com where you can go to post comments. You will be required to register, but hey, no biggie, right?
http://www.nedsjotw.com/connect/
Thanks to Woody Goulart for setting up the JOTW Connect! Page.
There has been a suggestion that we offer a prize or prizes to the most interesting comments. So, if you have a prize you want to offer, let Ned know at lundquist989@cs.com.
We’re due for an updated JOTW survey, and in the past we’ve offered prizes for people who participated in the survey (selected at random). So you may wish to offer a prize or two for the survey, too.
*** From one of my mentors and favorite people, Karen Vahouny, ABC:
Hi Ned,
I just forwarded this to a student, and it reminded me to send you a note of congratulations for the upcoming big anniversary … the 1,000th newsletter. (btw, I’ve sent copies of the newsletter to a lot of colleagues and students!)
I think it would be fun if you listed some of the early “stats” in the first few months of the newsletter’s creation — how many jobs listed; how many subscribers, etc.
And then some “key events in history,” relating to big milestones, recognition, etc.
I think it’s fantastic that you’ve continued to aggregate jobs and produce this — with a sense of humor and fun!

7.) Director, Public AffairsPort Metro Vancouver, Vancouver, BC, Canada
Port Metro Vancouver (the Port or PMV) represents Canada’s largest and busiest port, trading more than $172 billion in goods over 160 trading economies annually. A non-shareholder and financially self-sufficient corporation, Port Metro Vancouver is the amalgamation of three previously existing port authorities: the Fraser River Port Authority, North Fraser Port Authority, and Vancouver Port Authority, creating a synergized entity that operates under one governance model and one leadership team.
As one of the most diversified ports and a significant part of British Columbia’s dynamic gateway for trade and tourism, the Port generates an estimated $9.7 billion in GDP and represents a major economic force that continuously strengthens the Canadian economy through international trade. The Port is clearly focused on the operational needs of port users and on its long-term sustainability and competitiveness. The Port’s mission is to lead the growth of Canada’s Pacific Gateway in a manner that enhances the well-being of Canadians.
With continued growth anticipated, PMV has created a new role in the organization – Director of Public Affairs. Reporting to the Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility, you will be responsible for providing leadership, direction, and management for strategic communications and issues management initiatives in support of PMV’s business objectives.
As the ideal candidate, you bring progressively senior experience in communications, public affairs, or journalism. Alternatively, senior experience in government or public policy development will be considered. Experience working on communication strategies with respect to policy issues is an asset. Working with all levels of the organization, as well as external stakeholders, to develop and lead public affairs activities by anticipating future trends in the sector affecting PMV will be key. You will also act as a spokesperson for PMV and liaise with media and external stakeholders to ensure PMV’s messaging is clear and timely. You will enjoy working in a collaborative environment with a team of highly capable and motivated professionals. Acting as mentor and developing talent on the team will be an important mandate.
This is an exciting opportunity if you are looking to make an important contribution to Canada’s success as a major trading economy and the well-being of Canadians.
