People on the Move in the Social Business Industry, Nov 20, 2011

While I’m comitted about tracking the roles in the social business space, earlier last week, I asserted that if the Corporate Social Strategist does their role well, it goes away, it drew quite a bit of dialog.

The hires in the social business space continue to heat up, in fact the market research data (read the report) shows that hiring is the top spend in 2011. Expect there to be more hires over coming quarters.Both the submissions on this job announcement board, as well as available social media positions at corporations continue to pour in. In this continued digest of job changes, I like to salute those that continue to join the industry in roles focused on social media, see the archives, which I’ve been tracking since Q4, 2007.
