Distinctive. Sound like an interesting job? Our company was born out of a passion for bringing information to consumers. We began with the mission of providing a smarter directory assistance solution to telecom companies, so they could pass on a better and lower priced service to consumers. As a natural extension of our mission, we built our own market leading information brands in Europe and extended our services into text messaging as well. We have recently embarked on a new brand identity which reflects our desire to extend our brand presence to the US and merge our multiple information services under one umbrella. What will never change is our commitment to persistent innovation so we can always provide our customers with the best information experience possible. With our renewed identity, we setup a high priority intrapraneurship effort, a web start-up nestled within a larger organization, to launch our brand into the web and mobile space. This offers us the best of both worlds: the stability and resources of our parent, with the culture and agility of a startup. We aren’t looking to create some fad products, but rather major newsworthy and landscape changing products, backed by an extensive marketing budget. We are an eclectic group of intelligent, interesting, and fun entrepreneurs with a passion for groundbreaking ideas.
