The most interesting of the job opportunities we've seen recently:
This week is a particular bonanza for culture-fiends, and especially anyone with an interest in the performing arts. Queer theatre company Buddies in Bad Times has
two positions open: one is for a fundraising manager and the other a public relations coordinator. Both are new positions—part-time contracts that run through June, 2014, and have an option for renewal if things go well.
The Factory Theatre is hiring a
development and partnerships manager; it's a permanent, full-time position for someone with at least five years experience, who can spearhead the company's efforts as they build up to their 50th anniversary later this decade. Another stalwart of the theatre scene, Canadian Stage, is hiring too: they are looking for a
marketing and communications manager to create and implement communications materials for each show in their season.
Also in culture, the Luminato Festival is looking for some help with
government relations and communications. It's a senior position for someone with at least five years of experience working with government, and reports directly to the CEO. The Toronto Symphony Orchestra is filling a vacancy for a
senior communications manager, to oversee the creation of all their development communication materials. Finally, the Canadian Film Centre is hiring an
events manager with at least five years of relevant experience.
There's also a great opportunity available right now for history buffs: Historica-Canada (formerly the Historica-Dominica Institute) is hiring a billingual
program officer. Duties include communications, event organizing, outreach, and classroom assistance.
If getting your hands dirty is more appealing Fresh City Farms, a six-acre farm in Toronto with a local grocery delivery program, is looking for a
farm manager. They are seeking someone with at least three seasons of organic growing experience, as well as experience managing staff.
Finally, the Ontario Land Trust Alliance, a conservation-oriented charity, is hiring a
program and communications officer. It's a junior position for someone with at least one year of work experience, excellent communication stills, and a capacity to multitask.
