No seriously though, it sounds like an interesting position and with my company going through an acquisition, I'm looking for something new.

My CV is available online at http://www.kriskrug.com/res/

Feel free to contact me outside the forum if you're interested.

Thx!

Using a good old English expression - "I am not trying to teach my grandmother how to suck eggs" but I am assuming you have taken the normal route of Google, LinkedIn, ECademy, Eliyon etc etc ?

If you would like some recommendations of recruiters in Canada that specialise in your same space - if you are open to splits let me know and I can forward on their details

Good luck !!

I would try a search on LinkedIn. You will find a wealth of talented people there, with career details so you can rapidly assess the appropriateness of their skills.

Good Luck.
