What we are looking for:

We provide team building activities all over North America and have a team of 20+ contractors who facilitate those events. For the Toronto event coordinator, most of the events will be in the GTA, and the frequency varies based on customer demand. It can range from 1 event a week or month, or multiple events in one month. We offer both virtual and in-person events and our pay ranges from $300 for hosting a virtual event to $650 or more for our more complex in-person events. Our event times range between 2-4 hours not including travel or pre-event preparation (site visit, set-up, and training) - for any work you need to travel for, we arrange your flight and accommodations and pay a travel fee and per diem.

Our ideal candidate is someone whose work life will complement this on-demand (per-event) contract work; working 1-2 hours virtually hosting or 2-8 hours on-site for in-person events. You have experience leading corporate team building events, think scavenger hunts, charity bike builds, game shows, and more. You can speak confidently on stage in front of a group of any size and keep your group engaged. You’re a critical thinker able to make swift decisions in the best interest of the event while ensuring customer satisfaction throughout the event. You’re willing and able to manage the set-up for the event, which may include lifting and transporting supply bins, setting up those supplies, and training your on-site staff to support during the event.

As a contractor, you come equipped with your own technology package, smartphone, robust cellular plan, laptop, and accessories. You are comfortable traveling to events when needed.
