Whilst not quite as rare as the ever illusive rocking horse shit, a job in the “music industry” is a rarity and a job at Shiny is surely more coveted than even that!

So what’s it all about Alfie?

CLICK ME and i’ll take you to the job description…or click the nice little red banner to your right and be transported to the page that indie rock dreams are made of.

Shiny is an equal opportunity, no dickheads allowed employer.

I’m a “bad news first” kinda guy, so it is with a heavy heart that i have to announce that Ms Jade Pham, long time Shiny champion and true heart, is preparing to bid us adieu. Sad but true. Jade has been Shiny in every way from the very moment she stepped through our wonky doorway and announced that she wasn’t “careerist”. She is here for a little bit yet, so feel free to send chocolates and cute stationery before her ship leaves port. And despite the fact that i could never get her to say “Up The Rabbitohs”  she remains, quite literally, unreplaceable (and, i believe, secretly red and green)!!

Now for the good news…Emily Alvis is in the house!! Emily isn’t replacing Jade…we were always looking to be bringing another person into the fold and after the arduos process of reviewing over 90 applications for the job Ms Alvis was chosen by our panel of experts (Jade, Matt and i) as the person we deemed most likely to bear the Shiny standard high and proud, and at the same time pronounce that she was ready to embrace the true way and spirit of the cardinal and myrtle!!

Welcome Emily…Au revoir Jade…we love you’se all!

We had a huge response and were humbled by the many great applicants that wanted to make Shiny their place of work.

Pulling the “Complete Idiots Guide to Job Interviews” from our vast library is a task that no-one here ever looks forward to, but it’s all over now and we couldn’t be happier.

Look out for the announcement next week, and THANKS again to anyone that applied….as the Marrickville Mauler used to say “we love you’se all!”.

Of course you’ll need more skills than just being good at pretending, BUT if you’re keen and want to find out more CLICK ME (you’ll be glad you did)!
