Description

Social Media and Digital Content Coordinator

Toronto Symphony Orchestra (TSO) – Toronto, ON | Permanent, Full-time

Reports to: Senior Director, Brand and Communications

Status: Permanent Full-time

There’s nothing like music to create a moment—and social is often the show before the show: the place where audiences first discover the story, the artist and the experience. At the TSO, there are so many great stories to tell, and we’re looking for someone who loves finding the best way to tell them. You’re social-media obsessed, think video-first and know how to turn campaigns, concerts and behind-the-scenes moments into content made for each channel. You’re also a builder—someone who likes creating smart workflows, testing ideas, watching what works, and continually tweaking and improving.

Today, the Orchestra presents 100+ concerts annually, engaging audiences of all ages and backgrounds through vibrant musical experiences and education initiatives.
