Hi all,
I am a graduate from Warwick University (UK) and I am looking for a job in social media marketing. Unfortunately, a lot of the links you provide seem to cater for jobs in the US. Do you, Jeremiah, or anyone else, have any advice/contacts that would be useful for someone who wants to do this kind of work in London?
Thanks so much,
Adam

Thanks everyone for your speedy replies.
Lloyd Davis: I live in North London so I will definitely make the Friday 10am meeting at the Coach and Horses. Look forward to it.
For anyone who wants to get in contact my email is: adamhse@gmail.com
Brian Sherwin from http://www.myartspace.com seems to be a good example of someone doing well with social media. I believe his position with them is senior editor, but he maintains different outlets of viral networking as well.
I™m a public radio producer in the Boston area. Most recently, I helped create and produced Radio Open Source, a public radio show and podcast (we called it a blog with a radio show) hosted by Chris Lydon. We were the first to truly integrate a radio program with online communities, engaging the public to discuss topics on the show, as well as suggest segments, guests, and questions.
Recently I™ve been doing some consulting to media organizations “currently Wisconsin Public Radio and another very exciting media start-up in Boston -about developing online communities and OpenSourcifying (this was a verb that National Public Radio coined; it means applying our techniques to NPR programming) .
I’m looking for some other consulting work, as well. If you know of anything media-related, give a shout.
Sincerely,
Mary McGrath
