The most interesting of the opportunities we've seen this week:
Though it's only just officially become autumn, some employers are turning to thoughts of winter. Urban environmental centre Evergreen is already hiring for its skating programs. Specifically, they are looking for
skating instructors who can provide lessons for children aged 4-12, and for a
skating rink associate who can provide ovall support and customer service. Their skating season runs from December through March.
For those with an interest in culture the Gardiner Museum has several opportunities at the moment. First up is a post for an
education coordinator, a part-time role for someone to help coordinate many of the museum's school-based programs. They are also looking for a
curatorial research assistant; graduate work in art history, material culture or museum studies is a must, as is familiarity with ceramics in particular.
Also looking is Toronto Dance Theatre, which is hiring a
marketing and communications manager for a maternity leave contract; applicants should have at least five years of experience. The Luminato Festival is looking for an
office and HR manager—a part-time position. And finally in this sector, Harbourfront is hiring a
video producer and social media specialist, to shoot all promotional video as well as implement social media strategies on multiple platforms.
And last but not least, the Toronto Public Library has one of the most interesting tech opportunities we've seen in a long time. They are launching an Innovator in Communities (IIC) program this fall, to support the
Digital Innovation Hubs (that's where you can go use their 3D printers) at the Toronto Reference Library and the Fort York branch.
Applicants for the Innovators program should have at least five years of coding experience, and be prepared to create programs for the public, with the aim of fostering employable stills.
