New jobs in PR and Sports

Wow! It seems new changes in the amateur sports arena is producing a flurry of job openings for communicators. Being privy to the Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC), I come across a number of shifts and changes that will undoubtedly open the door for those in PR looking for work.

First, I can say with confidence that CPC will be seeking both a bilingual Public Relations Coordinator within the next 2-3 months and a junior level web content editor in short order. Jackie DeSouza, the Communications Chief for the Canadian Olympic Committee has announced her resignation, opting for a position with the communications department of Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. CODA, the Canadian Olympic Development Association in Calgary will be looking for a Communications person soon as their Director of Communications has too announced that he's moving on to greener pastures. Finally, the Canadian Wheelchair Basketball Association has announced that they will be hiring their first-ever Communications Director.

If you're a Public Relations professional with an interest in amateur sport, there now seems to be opportunities abound in Canada!
