About Tim Masson

A self-professed IT nerd and aspiring surfer, Tim became the Chief Steward & CEO of the Ian Martin Group in 2010.

The Ian Martin Group is “Connecting People in Meaningful Work” through its longstanding IT/Engineering Recruiting practice, as well as Fitzii – a hiring system for SMBs, and B Work – a new job board connecting purpose-driven job seekers with Certified B Corporations and other Conscious Businesses.

Through this work, Tim has developed a passion for helping old-world companies navigate the culture-change required to move into a new world of disruptive innovation, social responsibility, and self-management.
