Hot Docs is a not-for-profit organization advancing and celebrating the art of documentary and creating production opportunities for documentary filmmakers.

It operates North America's largest documentary festival, conference, and market, annually welcoming audiences of over 228,000 and more than 2,600 industry delegates to Toronto.

Hot Docs operates year-round with revenues of up to $9 million and a team of 70 full-and part-time employees.

It supports the Canadian and international industry, offers a Canada-wide streaming service, and introduces students to documentaries in schools and in the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema, the world's first and largest documentary cinema.

You are also an inspiring storyteller who has a holistic understanding of non-profit organizations, operations, financials and events experience.
