Do you want to join the blogTO team?

Now that we've finished gorging on 1 litre milkshakes we're looking to round-out our team with a few key additions. Might you be one of them? Read on to check out the blogTO roles currently up for grabs.

FREELANCE ROLES

Film Writer. You'll be our main writer at the Toronto International Film Festival covering the news on the ground, the buzziest films and the bombs. You're a film buff and hit up local film festivals like Hot Docs and Inside Out. In this role you'll be expected to contribute film posts to the site 2-4 times a month as well as be available full time (10 days) during TIFF for round-the-clock coverage.

Tech writer. You've got your eye on local start-ups and are immersed in the Toronto tech scene. In this role you'll contribute posts 2-4 times a month featuring new consumer-focused Toronto based start-ups and apps, as well as report on any other local tech news of note.

PART/FULL TIME ROLES (3-5 days a week)

Listings Manager . In this role you'll navigate neighbourhoods throughout the GTA writing up short profiles of new stores as well as take on additional list-based posts. You'll also be responsible for maintaining our database of local business listings. The successful candidate will have an expert knowledge of Toronto (you grew up here or have lived here for 10 plus years) be very detail and deadline oriented, possess an undergrad journalism degree and be able to take good quality photos (you own and have experience using a DSLR).
