We've written often of the economic gains that take place when companies exit, and Lunenburg-based WoodsCamp Technologies is making the case for us with its job postings.
We had no new job postings on the Entrevestor Job Board in the past week, so our Jobs of the Week column this week will once again focus on Woodscamp, which has posted four openings on our site. The company in June said it had been bought by the American Forest Foundation for an undisclosed price.
It's an example of companies that have been bought by a larger organization increasing their Atlantic Canadian staff after being taken over. We wrote about the phenomenon last year in this report.
We're also repeating a job posting by Dash Hudson, which is seeking an Account Executive.
The Jobs of the Week column features openings posted on the Entrevestor Job Board, which focuses on jobs in technology, innovation and startups in Atlantic Canada. The Entrevestor Job Board helps match job openings and candidates in the tech and startup communities and is operated by Entrevestor and Alongside.
Here are excerpts from the job postings:
