Simply Audiobooks has become a great company on the strength of its great employees. In order to stay great as we grow our membership and revenue, we are always looking for more talented individuals to join the team, hiring talented people whenever they appear, even if we have to hunt to find a role for them. Consider us miners for diamonds in the rough, anxious to discover and reveal the unseen, multi-faceted brilliance and flair of each individual.
We interview many candidates each year, looking for raw talent, the ability to learn, demonstrated creativity, and people who are just plain fun to be around. We're entrepreneurs, and we consider entrepreneurial dedication and ingenuity a core competency across all job titles. Although this is a team effort, each member of this team contributes something unique and extraordinary that achieves not only business goals but lends character and excitement to our challenging office environment.
Don't think of Simply Audiobooks if you're looking for a bullet point for your resume, an iron-clad job description, or a six figure salary. Do think of us if you want adventure, a fun work environment, the opportunity to learn, and to be part of something great. We also offer free audio books, ping-pong, air hockey, PS2 and foosball to name a few. We share a highly competitive air at SAB and believe mental and physical stimulation mid day is more than important to maintain focus within our daily ventures.
We have offices in Toronto (Oakville), Buffalo, Las Vegas and Manchester, England. Most of our administrative functions are handled out of Toronto, with fulfillment and book acquisition in the US and UK.
Our principal functional areas are marketing, member service and software development. Take a look around our website. If you're a star and can contribute, then send your resume to hr@simplyaudiobooks.com.
Fair warning: write an interesting cover letter. We want humans, not marionettes.
We're not what you'd call a normal company. So stop reading this right now if you're looking for a Fortune 500 environment with a cubicle and morning staff meetings.
Simply Audiobooks is an internet retailer of audio books we offer a rental program, direct sales and downloads. We're growing so fast we can barely catch our breath with offices in Oakville, Buffalo, Vegas and the UK. Somehow we always seem to find time to play games on PS2, eat cookies, watch tv and get coerced into Scrabble games. This is high adventure. This is a fun work environment, and this is a chance to grow as the company grows.
This is not your typical call center position, we need someone who knows what downloads are, can actually use an MP3 player and is an expert in Windows Media Player. Our downloadable audio books are taking off, with more subscribers everyday so we need help!
Besides having elevated customer service skills, if you answer yes to 4 out of the 6 questions below, this role is ideal for you:
Salary
Health and Dental Benefits
Stock Options
All the free pop you can handle
ATTENTION: The cover letter you send will be the most important thing we look at in your application. If it looks generic or cut & pasted, it'll be deleted. We like people with personality. Write an interesting, but brief, cover letter. Thanks for reading this far!
We thank all applicants, but only those under consideration for the position will be contacted.

We're not what you'd call a normal company. So stop reading this right now if you're looking for a Fortune 500 environment with a cubicle and morning staff meetings.
We have 6 people in Member Services now, and we're continuously looking for more great people. We use member services as a portal to other jobs in the company, and only hire people with that potential to be a star.
Duties will include what you'd expect in a contact centre: answering phones, replying to emails, debating with your fellow employees and getting coerced into Scrabble games. Our staff always have full authority to solve customer problems and we don't measure things like how long you're on the phone. Excellent computer skills (especially in Excel), strong communication skills, past experience in the customer service area and a fun personality would definitely be an asset.
We thank all applicants, but only those under consideration for the position will be contacted.
Some people want the security of structure, cubicles, and morning staff meetings. We understand that, and we hope those people get high-paying jobs working for our competitors. We're different.

Our development team is currently 7 people and we are looking for someone who can get along with them, as well as teach them a thing or two. They're pretty smart, so you have to be too.
