Widely recognized as top-of-class by meeting and event organizers around the world, the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC) has hosted over 22,000 events in our four-decade history.

We are proud to support the local tourism industry as one of North America's leading convention centres, having added more than eight billion dollars in direct spending economic impact to our community.

MTCC is a Crown Corporation of the Province of Ontario and is proudly governed and led by an executive management team and an independent board of directors comprised of senior private sector business leaders.

The Metro Toronto Convention Centre prides itself on its professionalism and dedication to making every event it hosts memorable for its customers and guests alike.

This is a full-time, permanent position to fulfill the role of Digital Media and Signage Manager at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC).

This position will be responsible for management and delivery of event branding and advertising opportunities, both event related and third party, with particular emphasis on our digital media assets.

This role will also be responsible for evolving opportunities to increase the digital media experience for the events that occur in the MTCC.

This position is within the Technology Services Department and reports directly to the Chief Information Officer.

Job Description:

Currently the MTCC has digital signs outside of each meeting room (70), general information signs located throughout the facility (30), external marquee signs at both major entrances as well as large format digital wall displays to provide a heightened branding and digital experience.

These signs are used to provide specific information about the events in the building, event branding/ sponsorship opportunities, general MTCC facility information, and third-party advertising.

As digital media is becoming more integral to events, there is an opportunity to expand these services to the benefit of our customers and the MTCC.

Combining these emerging digital media opportunities with non-digital media provides the MTCC and our customers with the ability to promote brand awareness.
