Wanted: Digital Account Manager at KELLETT

A lot of things have gone on in the last 3 months since I started at KELLETT Communications here in Yellowknife. Lots of new challenges have come in the door, the biggest one being the NWT Tourism account, which I’m very excited about.

With this new account within the company we need more talent. Or more so, I need a new awesome co-worker to come work with us on the many projects we have going on.

We are looking for a Digital Account Manager to join our web team here in Yellowknife. Basically it is the same thing as I’m doing. This person would be managing the build of websites from the initial client contact or RFP writing to the design, development and delivery. Additionally they would be managing Social Media Campaigns and helping with digital and web strategies.

Working with the KELLETT team is a lot of fun and one that I’m proud to be apart of. The team is made of our fearless leaders and then a mix of designers, developers, managers and copywriters. Needless to say, when you need to brainstorm something the KELLETT team has enough experience and knowledge to find a solution for everything. I have come to learn that nothing is out of the realm of possible at KELLETT, I’ve already gotten to do many things I never thought I’d get to do.

Then there is Yellowknife, where the job is located. Yes it is in Northern Canada but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have everything you could ever want and more, because it does. All the big name stores you need with great local shops with awesome customer service. Oh yeah and our backyard it huge. Endless lakes and wilderness. Boating, fishing, hiking, biking, camping, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, skiing and kite surfing are just some of the endless activities you can do within seconds of downtown Yellowknife. Trust me, this place is great and I’m proving it on YkOnline.ca.

If this job – full description here – sounds awesome – because it is – and it sounds like something you could do, contact Bill Kellett, our president. He’s a cool guy, he’s on Twitter so tweet him or email him.

My first big proposal: NTT

I have been at KELLETT now for just over a month and half and I’ll be honest, I didn’t know what to expect when I started. I didn’t really know what I was going to be doing orwho I would be working with, I just knew it was a good decision and that it was.

Yellowknife is a small town with a competitive marketing industry which is why the past couple weeks have been somewhat awkward for me. I’m so use to publicly shouting out what I am doing on a regular basis, but with this I couldn’t. To make matters more awkward I have a good relationship with many of the people that work with these other companies and I certainly hope work aside we can continue that.

What I am referring to is of course the Northwest Territories Tourism Account, which KELLETT has submitted a proposal for.

I’ll tell you right off the bat that tourism, especially in the NWT, is something that I have a deep passion for. It is something that I have thought about for many years stemming back to before YkOnline.ca, to the days when I worked for a tourism operator. This place is my home and I want to share it with others.

As the proposal was coming together I was ecstatic to be apart of it. There were so many aspects that were getting me pumped about the future. The first was all the really creative ideas we talking about as we were building the proposal and of course the second was the team. I have come to learn that the team I’m working with is one of the best and no matter the project they will be a blast to work with. The late nights with them at The Black Knight are fun too.

I know no matter the outcome I will work my best to do great things and to think different.

To kind of show some fun in what we were doing I came up with the idea of the following video, shot and edited it together. It is staring friend, James Rubec, as the hyper active northern delivery boy.

I ask that you share this post or the video around to help spread the word that KELLETT and myself are in relentless pursuit.
