Nice to see you here. Are you ready to make a "splash" and "pitch" your leadership skills? The City of Toronto invites you to "exercise" your talents and join our team! If you're looking to "re-create" your career and "dive deep" into a dynamic role, then "jump" at the opportunity to lead a diverse workforce. We're "rooting" for you to step up and "plant" yourself in a role where you can really make a "tree-mendous" impact. (all puns intended)

ABOUT PARKS, FORESTRY and RECREATION: Toronto’s parks, recreation facilities and natural spaces are places where Torontonians come together to build community and play, celebrate and explore. In Parks, Forestry & Recreation (PFR) Division’s role as stewards of these spaces, we contribute to the City’s social and environmental resilience by ensuring that our parks, playing fields, recreation centres, ice rinks and pools, along with tree-lined streets, trails, forests, meadows, marshes, and ravines, are beautiful, safe and accessible, that they expand and adapt to meet the needs of a growing City, and are filled with vibrant, active, and engaged communities.
