Not just any Fortune 100 company, but a Top 25 Brand (Source: Business Week/Interbrand). Matt Schwartz from a recruiting agency reached out to me (via LinkedIn) regarding Pepsico’s newly minted social media team, asking me if I knew someone who’d be a good fit to run that team.

First off, it’s nice to see Fortune 100 companies jumping into the social media bandwagon with a concrete plan within their marketing budget. For those of you who are out there, running social media and think you could be the dream candidate check it out.

Job Details below:

What?
Sr. Manager of Social Media

Where?
New York

Requirements

* Technologist

* Evangelist

* Social Media Strategist and Tactician

…and one more thing. 10 years business experience.

Let me know if you’re interested and I’ll put you in touch with Matt. In related job news, it was refreshing to hear John Boynton finding his VP of Community on LinkedIn. Nice!
