We’re looking for a leader to help us innovate our print, digital, social media and event products.
We disdain the constraints of corporate group-think and instead reward originality and creativity. We need someone who is as passionate as we are in delivering the best that journalism has to offer across a variety of platforms, providing a voice for advertisers, sponsors and patrons to build their own success.

As a member of the management team you will:
> Help develop overall company strategy, financial projections and implementation plans for core brands and new ventures.
> Identify and develop key strategic partnerships among media companies, major brands and advertising agencies,
> Hire and manage a team of new business development professionals and support staff
