Traverse City, Michigan, United States Safety Net Full time

ABOUT YOU

You're ambitious and confident with top-notch people skills. You find it easy to strike up a conversation with people you don't know. You take "positive attitude" to a new level; you're the person who wakes up with a smile on your face, and no one's going to drag you down. But under that pleasant demeanor is a real competitor. You like to set goals and put in the hard work to meet them. That may have looked like athletic or academic achievements in the past.
In your next career move, you don't want to apply to "Job Number 4238BZ" and be lost in a larger company. You want stability and good benefits, but also for your work to have impact and be noticed. And you want to work someplace where people carry their weight, but are also fun and friendly.

ABOUT US

Safety Net is a respected, award-winning IT firm consistently growing 20-30% per year, which means professional growth opportunity for our team members. Providing a highly skilled team to our clients is a core part of what we do, so we do a lot of training and are constantly honing our skills. As a company, we believe that if we take great care of our staff, the staff will take great care of our clients. If you have a family (or, just a life), so do we; we understand the importance of flexibility whenever it's possible. We know that customer satisfaction and job satisfaction are absolutely linked, so we make efforts to have fun in the office, make sure all staff members are equipped with great technology and have a comfortable work environment. We also have a "no jerks" hiring policy. To provide consistently great service to clients, we embrace process (Lean, ITIL, CRM, you name it), so if you like to go about your work all haphazardly, we're probably not the best place to apply. If you enjoy a good challenge, you should get in touch
