$17 per hour plus PWE
At the JCC, you are part of something bigger. You matter.

The JCC is an open, inclusive, and welcoming community, where belonging is everything.

The J has become one of the largest platforms for engagement and connection to community in the Greater Toronto Area; a place where multiple generations can strengthen their body, mind, and soul.

Programs include arts and culture, aquatics, recreation, education, sports, fitness, daycare, day camp, and more. For over 100 years, JCCs have been serving Jewish communities around the world. There are over 300 JCCs globally and 150 in North America. 1.5 million people enter a JCC each week in North America.

In the JCC's recently completed Strategic Plan, it set a bold and ambitious goal that, by 2026, the number of people engaging with the Prosserman JCC and the Schwartz/Reisman Centre will triple as the JCC becomes the centre of a thriving Jewish community.

We are on a growth path of transformative change so that, when we're done, 75,000 people annually will experience the JCC's new mission; to be a hub of community, dedicated to the enrichment of Jewish life through meaningful shared experiences.
