Sector Lead Position Changes
The elf job of Sector Lead is evolving. It will now require added duties, as listed at the job description found on this page.
Due to the changes in the position, I have decided to release all existing Sector Leads from their positions. They are welcome to re-apply and would be strongly considered if they are willing to take up the new duties as listed in the job description.
What is different about this position?
After long discussions with the Elf Supervisors, it was decided that Sector Leads need to have a more visible presences both on SantaTrackers.net and on social media channels. Sector Leads will be given more responsibility in both recruiting and news outreach efforts. This will require a lot more time and certainly a lot effort. That was a key reason why I chose to release those currently in the position.
The job has just changed.
The Elf Supervisors not only ask for a voice in recruiting for this position but also an ability to tailor the job to their own needs in each sector. I support this request. A Sector Lead in one sector will need to adapt to the needs of that sector through communication with the Elf Supervisor.
Please note that while the job description says a Sector Lead needs to be a North Pole Elf with a presence on SantaTrackers.net I will be flexible in that requirement in sectors where access and language make finding qualified candidates difficult (looking at you Sector 2). I will consider the possibility of a strong freelance elf candidate (or two).
If you are freelance elf with interest and qualifications in the Sector Lead position, please reach out via a standard freelance tracker report submission or via the support page here at SantaTrackers.net
If you have questions please feel free to ask them below or on the Elf Wall.
Thank you, Elf Crash! Wonderful! I think many elves have already applied for the job now, especitally Sector 2 elves are excited to apply! I’m delighted work for Santa and Operation Merry Christmas again! I have a question for you, do elves who had some positions last year still keep their positions except for Sector Lead? Or should we have to apply for all positions again? Thank you and Happy Christmas in July! 😊🎅🌟
