The most interesting of the job openings we've come across this week:
Toronto incubator MaRS is on the hunt for
a communications associate for a six-month internship. The work would be both print and online, and applicants must be registered with the CareerEdge program.
Business for the Arts is a national organization that tries to build closer relationships between those two sectors. They are looking for a part-time
graphic and web designer to handle design and layout work on their program and event materials. Also in this sector, East End Arts (a new organization in that part of town) is seeking a
managing director.
If you're interested in sustainable city-building, the municipal government is hiring
a coordinator for Smart Commute to help create and implement programs to highlight alternatives to traveling by car.
In other environmental positions, Greenpeace is hiring
a finance director to join their senior management team.
The Ontario Nonprofit Network (as their name indicates) focuses on strengthening the non-profit sector here. They are looking for
a policy specialist to spearhead talks with the provincial government about funding reform for the sector. It's a one year contract and the position is senior.
Finally, a few social service positions of note. The YWCA is hiring
a community engagement worker to help provide support around mental health concerns. The Canadian Women's Foundation is on the lookout for a new
marketing coordinator to oversee the logistics of their print and online campaigns. And the Canadian Cancer Society is looking to fill
several posts, including a new coordinator of volunteer engagement.
