SHIFT is a cool place to work.  Where else could you come to work on a Friday, see the principal walk into the staff meeting holding a 1930’s-era leather football helmet, and have your name pulled out of the hat for “Ejector Seat Friday?”  If your name is called, you gotta go home, right then and there, immediately.  The message? — Your team not only has your back, but, you work in such close collaboration that they know exactly what was on your plate that day.  The client should feel no hiccups, and everyone else is reminded to “get a life.”

Where else could you walk into the office on April Fool’s Day, only to see your entire cubicle has been enshrined in plastic wrap?  Or Jell-O?!  Or that your office equipment — phone, computer, tape dispenser, stapler, etc. — has been completely replaced by cardboard cut-outs of those same worktools?

See?  Cool.

If you want to see a listing of current positions, check us out on LinkedIn.  But before you go — since you’re already here — have a look at how we describe our agency and its culture. It’s not for everybody:

We’re SHIFT Communications. We’re what happens when you combine social media goodness with traditional PR. We’re what you get when 100 brainy, fun people actually like working (and playing) together while crushing it on kick a$$ consumer and technology clients!

We’re the place where killer ideas are born and where office politics goes to die. Not the other way around, like some other places you may have worked.

At SHIFT, with offices in Boston, New York and San Francisco, we give you a voice and a spotlight in exchange for your passion. You’re good at what you do, and we’re good about helping you shine. Whether you’re working on cool startup clients or major brands, we’re looking for a person who isn’t content with the status quo. We’re looking for a person to punch above his/her weight class. We’re looking to challenge you with new opportunity, and for you to challenge us by thinking differently, creatively, nimbly.

Importantly, we’re looking for folks who know how to play nicely. The awesome culture we’re bragging about in this post? Yeah, we have that because we’ve gone to great lengths to hire people who have a positive outlook. Are you quick to provide solutions in the face of problems?  Do you value the success of your fellow colleagues as much as your own?

Cool. You just might be a SHIFTer.

I hope you’ll consider joining in on the hijinks.  Send your resume to HR Director Lori Jepsen, ljepsen@shiftcomm.com.  Rockstars only, please.
