The Sims Online Wants You!

Please note I'm currently working on the new site. I didn't want to take the site offline though, so you can still visit it. However me working on the site while it's still online means a lot of the pages will appear wonky. But not to worry, it won't take too long. Happy

The Sims Online Wants You!

We're looking for the kind of person who loves The Sims, and loves the people who play The Sims even more. We think of The Sims player community as our family, and we need someone who can help us treat our players with that kind of care and attention.

"Online Community Representative" is a long title for a position which really boils down to "The Players' Advocate." Our users deserve attention and responsiveness, and our community team provides them.

If you have experience managing, developing and participating in very large communities of paying subscribers, we'd like to talk to you. We're looking for someone who can hit the ground running, who doesn't have to learn what it means to be involved with the community, who can grasp and participate in the development of our online community.
