Every two weeks, Search Influence’s Kelly Benish — who knows practically everyone in hyperlocal — covers some of the latest job changes taking place in this dynamic industry. (Plus, scroll down for jobs on offer now.)

Scott McNulty – Telmetrics
My friend Scotty McNulty was brought on by Telmetrics as their director of sales to work on building out their sales by developing sales/revenue. He recently moved over to the call tracking giant from his role as the director of business development for eLocal Listing/Search Initiatives. Looks like a good move for Scott, who knows practically everyone else there is to know in local. Not to mention he is now fortunate enough to work with one of my favorite ladies in call tracking, the one and only Teresa Bordenet.

Jason Kint – OPA
The Online Publishers Association (OPA) hired Jason Kint as their new CEO. With his home base in D.C., Kint replaces Pam Horan, who has been president since 2006. Horan will end her 10-year tenure at the association at the end of next week. Kint joins the OPA from CBS Interactive where he was senior VP and general manager of its sports division and he also worked at The Mirror in the past.

Bob Lee – Square
Having joined Square from Google in 2010, Square’s chief technical officer Bob Lee has decided it’s time to check out. Lee was originally hired to build on the company’s Android app and ultimately received the promotion to CTO in 2011. The company recently brought on a highly revered leader in tech by the name of Alyssa Henry, who came over from Amazon in April to take on leading the engineering arm of the company. With no word on where he’s going, we just wanted to wish “Crazy Bob” the best in the future.

Rakesh “Rocky” Agrawal – PayPal
Last week, there was drama unfolding fit for the headlines of TMZ (of the local industry of course) thanks to one PayPal executive who was apparently “experimenting” on his Twitter account with a new phone. Longtime controversial executive Rakesh “Rocky” Agrawal’s Twitter account was blowing up with tweets bashing his then PayPal peers. Rocky already sent a resignation letter into PayPal by the time the first derogatory 140 characters were public, but it’s unclear whether this was all a publicity stunt to promote Rocky’s brand, and a new startup he’s planning on forming.

Multiple Employees –  Pro.com
The former CEO of Digg and long-time Amazon employee Matt Williams has put together a powerhouse group of ex-Amazoners to make home projects run more smoothly. The startup is called Pro.com, and they just raised $3.5 million and 30 employees to give people easy-access to price estimates and scheduling information for professionals. The company helps to get users price estimates for home projects, vet providers and schedule appointments through the platform.
