“Chief Yahoo!” - 12 Great Job Titles - I want more!
I asked this question on Linkedin.com, “what is the most unusual job title at your company?” and got some great answers! I wish I had the company name for all of them. Add your own to the comments and tell me what company!

Factotum |
I work with a guy who knows everything. |

Implant Manager |
The best I have seen has got to be “Implant Manager” for a curvaceous lady leading a small team of travel agents. These people worked in the offices of large company X, but were employed by a third-party organisation arranging all the travel for the employees of company X - hence they were “implanted” into the larger company, I suppose. |

Paranoid |
Paranoid (a.k.a. Information Security Experts) |
|
|
Dictator |
My favourite one was “Dictator” for “The Republic of Cappuccino.” |
|

Conductor of Magical Printing |
Perhaps the most unusual title at Rastar was my previous (and still favorite) job title: Conductor of Magical Printing. |

People Development Group |
In my present job we don’t have HR department, instead that department is know as “People Development Group” (PDG). |

Monster Diva; Chief Yahoo |
At Monster our receptionists were “Directors of First Impressions” and our founder’s PA was “Monster Diva”. I also love Jerry Yang’s title at Yahoo! “Chief Yahoo”. |

Director of Sales and Smiles |
He’s always “fabulous.” The company is Visual Goodness, and the holder is one of my partners, Edward Cox. His title fits him like a glove. |

Chief Instigator; Worker Bees |
The CEO of our company goes by “Chief Instigator” We used to refer to our content people on the site as “Worker Bees.” Ahhhhh…..the good old days! |

SPOC |
SPOC (at TELUS) - Single Point of Contact - The IT department and yes that is their official title. |
