Toronto, Canada Ontario Centre of Innovation Full time

**Digital Adoption Advisor**

**The Opportunity**:
This is a chance to use your extensive business, technology, and sector expertise to help build Ontario’s innovation economy and be a part of discovering and advancing commercial solutions to industry challenges and urgent global issues. Whether you are a seasoned professional or at an early stage in your career with strong relevant experience and/or academic qualifications, by working for a dynamic organization that is continuously evolving to help increase Ontario’s economic competitiveness and in meeting the needs of Ontario’s innovators, you will constantly encounter new challenges and opportunities to make a difference.

**Focusing on the Ontario region**, deliver the Digital Competency Centre [DCC] programming, engage in conversation and select clients eligible and suitable for the Digital Modernization Adoption Program [D-MAP] and Made-in-Ontario Technology Demonstration initiatives. The DCC is working towards becoming the leading Centre for streamlining the adoption of made-in-Ontario digital technologies. With a mission to accelerate the **adoption **of digital technologies by small businesses which have the **potential to grow **into medium-sized businesses.

As a Digital Adoption Advisor at OCI, you will help link digital technology companies with opportunities, test sites, and supports, removing barriers, to foster a culture of innovation, so that new technologies can be adopted and implemented into the Ontario small companies to effectively scale to medium sized. In this pivotal role you will guide and support entrepreneurs, start-ups, and high-growth companies. This includes identifying exciting new technologies with strong commercialization potential; supporting industry; and encouraging entrepreneurs and company leaders to aspire to creating globally scalable products and services and engage with third party consultants to support the development of the D-MAP reports. Intrinsic to OCI’s mandate and success, DAAs manage their own projects and clients, working within a highly collaborative environment where all are focused on moving innovation opportunities from the bench to significant commercial success.

Our team’s culture matters highly to us, and we value team players who work well with people from diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

**Your Contribution**:
At OCI, your work will be varied every day and you could contribute in several different ways:

- Provide mentoring support to DCC companies to deliver on high quality, robust digital adoption plans
- Work collaboratively across the organization to deliver OCI’s corporate plan, program portfolio and the achievement of program targets.
- Identify technology with strong commercial potential and develop commercialization opportunities e.g., knowledge transfer, start-ups, spin-offs, licensing.
- Engage in extensive ecosystem networking to identify and engage potential industry and academic partners, entrepreneurs and other relevant associations and agencies with the aim of fostering collaborations and linking to appropriate programs offered by OCI and others.
- Expand OCI’s network by participating in events, business associations, technical committees, and professional organizations.
- Provide clients with insight, mentoring and coaching.
- Be a connector, facilitating the introduction of people and companies to share business, technical knowledge, and experience. Connect potential Ontario-based suppliers with customers and vice versa. Leverage your own expanding personal network, OCI’s network, and the network of ecosystem partners to drive impact.
- Fulfill specifically assigned account responsibilities including establishing and executing engagement plans; capturing key personal and project information related to contacts, grants, and private-sector investments; engagement with Regional Innovation Centers (RICs) etc.; providing expert advice internally; and tracking metrics and outcomes for internal strategy development and reporting.
- Act as an ambassador of OCI through speaking and other public engagements.
- Manage key accounts, initiatives, projects, portfolios, and programs, while providing reviews, metrics, and outcome assessments.
- Take a leadership role in the planning and execution of identified priorities and the organizing of events and workshops, etc.
- Working in conjunction with OCI’s marketing and communications group to identify and communicate success stories, trends, and new developments.
- Maintain knowledge of OCI programs and keep abreast of sector and industry news, regional issues, regulatory issues, and key contacts.
- Undertake continuous professional development and a willingness to stretch into new areas, sometimes difficult ones, and sometimes at short notice. The goal is to be agile, flexible, and always striving to be the best you can be.
- Perform other related duties as assigned.
