Oneupweb Seeks Change with Recruitment and Remodel
A search for talent and a high tech renovation is the result of the award winning digital marketing agency’s booming growth.
March 9, 2011
(TRAVERSE CITY, MI) – Oneupweb’s rolling addition of new clients has the agency creating a number of available positions. Not only is Oneupweb’s staff expanding, so is their Mad Men-esque interior. The blueprints for their new conference room may appear midcentury vogue, but the technology is severely bleeding edge.
“Signing on new clients is great,” explains Oneupweb CEO and founder, Lisa Wehr. “More work means we need more innovative minds to help execute projects. We’re happy to be busy and we’re excited to see new faces within our team.”
Oneupweb’s crew consists of search marketing experts, social media gurus, sales pros and design trendsetters. The Oneupwebbers are accompanied by three furry friends who all come together to create a progressive chic atmosphere, whether it’s during a ping pong championship, Talk Like a Pirate Day or a boisterous company meeting.
“We’re a fun bunch here,” laughs Wehr. “Not only do we aim to hire the most elite brains, we also look for ambitious, energetic personalities.”
It’s Oneupweb’s relentless moxie that led them to their recent 2011 Silver ADDY® Award for their campaign reel—an innovative film about what they do—a perfect piece for job seekers to check out. Aside from award winning work, new employees will be wowed by Oneupweb’s beloved game room, with Nintendo Wii, pinball, foosball and classic arcade novelties. The company culture is very much like a family, something which Wehr strives for as her business rockets skyward.
“Intelligence, creativity and drive set us above our competition, but it’s our office lifestyle that helps keep us united as a team,” explains Wehr. “Although our corporate familial bonds make work pleasurable, our policy is to encourage employees to leave at 5:00pm to enjoy their home lives.”
Oneupweb employees are happy to call Traverse City their home. Even at work the staff enjoys the area’s natural scenery, as every workstation is granted a view of the Grand Traverse Bay.
“We couldn’t imagine working anywhere else,” points out Wehr. “The beauty of Northern Michigan provides us with endless inspiration, and the casualness of the Midwestern lifestyle lets our creativity run wild.”
So, how is the Oneupweb global headquarters able to compete with New York City, Detroit, Chicago and L.A. agencies, while staying located in intimate Traverse? A futuristic renovation is underway—the digital marketers will have two new conference rooms stocked with the latest and greatest technology that will help them collaborate with clients.
“It’s exciting to grow and design new space,” admits Wehr. “It’s hard to be ‘hush, hush’ about the project, but I just can’t give away our edge.”
All media are invited to tour the state of the art “teched” out Oneupweb global headquarters. To setup a personal visit or interview, please contact Hillary Burns at 231.922.9977 ext. 148.
