Australians need not apply.
Dr Mumbo has no idea if exceptions will be made if they know the Kiwi market really really well…
(Update: Advertiser Big Eave Digital has, curiously enough, now deleted the job.)

Interesting to see if this takes off further as multi-nationals cut marketing budgets even further…

I’m not even going to bother going on a rant about outsourcing Australian jobs. They sign their ads off “Hey, good luck dudes and dudettes!” That kind of talk might just fly in NZ.
