Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Explore Edmonton Corporation Full time

About Us:

We are Edmonton's Destination Management and Marketing Organization (DMMO). We also manage two of Edmonton's award-winning venues, the Edmonton Convention Centre and the Edmonton EXPO Centre.

We help tell Edmonton's story, elevate the Edmonton experience, and drive inbound visitation and economic impact in the visitor economy.


Working together in a one-team approach aligned by our core values, Explore Edmonton's business units' market and sell Edmonton as a year-round destination to visit, work, and play in while also developing products and experiences that have a uniquely Edmonton flavour.

And by incorporating the management of the city's two award-winning venues into Explore Edmonton, we are uniquely positioned to attract major events, meetings, and conventions to our city, generating greater economic impact.

While Explore Edmonton's mandate is focused on generating inbound visitation, what we do and how we do it also enhances and amplifies the quality of life for Edmontonians.

The people who live here are our greatest ambassadors, so making it easier for them to love our city makes it easier for us to sell it.


About Community Initiatives & Agriculture:


The Community Initiatives and Agriculture (CIA) team is the arm of Explore Edmonton Corporation that stewards legacy events like K-Days and Farmfair International.

We are also a team of urban agriculture experts and enthusiasts that continue to make an impact with projects and programs geared to agriculture education, community partnerships, and sustainability.


There is no better example of our work in the community to connect people to food and farming within the city limits than at the Explore Edmonton Urban Farm, and no better way to show our commitment to the quality of life of Edmontonians than through the events that our team of Community Volunteers support not just for Explore Edmonton, but for our attraction's partners all around Edmonton, every year.


And, for good measure, we always throw in a healthy dose of entertainment like the new Edmonton Pro Rodeo, the last stop on the road to the Canadian Finals Rodeo.
