Big news from Rotovegas
Well, my time at TUMONZ is drawing to a close…
For those of you who do not know already, I’ve been offered a job working for the Rotorua District Council in the Tourism department as their Web Development Coordinator.
Should be a drastic shock to the system after happily working for TUMONZ for nearly 5 years.
I’ll be concentrating on web design & development, which I’ve been developing after hours and will be able to further my skills in online and email marketing.
So it’s my last week in the office here at TUMONZ next week, and I start at the council on the 28th, the following Monday.
So, what will you be doing there you ask?
Here is a little extract taken from my job description manual.
Position Purpose
- To effectively administer, maintain and develop Destination Rotorua’s Tourism Marketing external websites.
- To co-ordinate, support and train internal and external content providers, maintain quality control of content, monitor statistics, promote and develop DRTM’s presence via the web.
- To explore and develop web-based marketing and revenue opportunities to fullest potential.
- To develop, administer and maintain DRTM’s internal client management databases.
So Kim and I are very excited about this, but at the same time are sad about leaving TUMONZ, as we have been a part of that happy family team for so long.
Kim and I want to wish TUMONZ all the best for the many years ahead.
