JOTW 50-2015
December 14, 2015
This is JOTW newsletter number 1,635
“Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.”
– Thomas Carlyle
This edition of the JOTW newsletter comes to you from Tokyo, Japan.
*** Welcome to the JOTW network.
*** To submit a job for 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.
JOTW is sent out on Mondays by email with a list the jobs posted in the full newsletter, which is posted online at www.nedsjotw.com. This is designed to keep the size of the emails to a more manageable length.
*** The position descriptions and or follow up information on links to the jobs can be found at www.nedsjotw.com.
*** Posting a job is free. 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. Please limit the size of your position descriptions (generally to 500 words or less). “Can’t Wait” blast email priority listings are $300, and “Top Job” placement is $100. Just send to me at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** 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:

*** To change your email address for JOTW, use the unsubscribe button at the bottom of your newsletter, and then subscribe with your new address at: .
*** This week’s Can’t Wait postings:
None this week
Can’t Wait jobs: These jobs are forwarded to the entire list as soon as they are received, and do not wait for the Monday newsletter, and are posted prominently on the JOTW website. Then they are posted first in the weekly JOTW newsletter. Can’t Wait postings cost $300. Contact Ned at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** This week’s Top Job:
None this week
*** Top Jobs: Stand above the rest. Your job can be right here, at the top of the weekly JOTW newsletter. Top job placement costs $100 per job per week. To be on top, contact Ned at lundquist989@cs.com.
*** If you find out about a job opportunity in communications, send it to me (lundquist989@cs.com), and I’ll share it with the JOTW network.
*** The JOTW network is built upon cooperative principles. Share, and reap the benefits. And it feels good to help others. I call it selfish altruism. But this also means you need to contribute.
*** Listing a position is free. Top jobs placement is $100, and a “Can’t Wait” posting is $300.

Writing with Clarity
Your business success depends on your ability to craft messages and stories with clarity, efficiency, and focus.

Ken O’Quinn’s Writing With Clarity workshops have helped thousands of professionals worldwide at such companies as Chevron, Visa, Oracle, Campbell’s Soup, Raytheon, Sprint, John Deere, Burson-Marsteller, and Fleishman Hillard.

45.) Supervisor, Public Relations, Allen & Gerritsen, Philadelphia, PA
As Olivia Pope would say, “It’s handled.” Or, “I’m never out of options.” And better yet, “If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work, but you have to try, because if you try, if you leap and you try, and it doesn’t work out, it’s not on you.” (Yes, that’s something she actually said.)
Basically, we’re looking for the next Olivia Pope (male or female) to join our PR team as a Supervisor. Don’t worry, you won’t have to help take down a secret government agency as part of the gig. But bonus points if you have any idea what we’re talking about here because we heart pop culture.
Our new team member will be psyched to both ideate and implement – we want an innovative thinker who can see a big idea through to execution. Someone with demonstrated creative thinking in PR beyond earned media who’s intensely curious about what’s next for the industry and how we can stay ahead of the curve.
Great writing is a must. Stellar media relations skills are, too. And enthusiasm for working hand in hand with other agency practices (creative, social, etc.) is key to the success of our new team member.
The winner of this position will have a critical role on the Agency PR team, with frequent responsibility for identifying and telling agency stories. Also central to our PR growth strategy is the A&G Brand Newsroom, so if you’re excited about being a reporter and/or an editor, we’re excited to hear from you. (Not sure what Brand Newsroom is? Google “Laser Ham” + “Michael Ian Black.”)
We want someone who is aware of the idiosyncrasies of practicing PR within an advertising agency. Someone who wants to make a mark on a national level, yet who doesn’t think they’re above pitching a story or writing a conference report. Our new team member will need to do lots of both.
Think you have what it takes? Tell us why – and feel free to send along links to your Twitter, LinkedIn, blog, or any other online presence you may have. How else will we dig up dirt on you? (Definitely send it but we’ll find it anyway. Remember, Olivia Pope is our spirit animal.)
