Job Description
Full job description
Project-Based Contract | September 2026 – May 2027
Amber Walker Events is looking for an experienced Event Planner / Producer to join our team for an exciting season of corporate, social and large-scale event projects, including a major Toronto trade show.
This is a hands-on, collaborative role for someone who enjoys taking ownership, contributing ideas and being involved in the full planning process—from client meetings through onsite execution.
Responsibilities
Attend client, vendor and planning meetings
Manage assigned event projects and workstreams
Coordinate vendors, rentals, décor and logistics
Conduct site visits and venue walkthroughs
Prepare project updates and follow through on action items
Assist with onsite event execution, including setup and teardown
Identify challenges, provide solutions and contribute creative ideas
Qualifications
5+ years of professional event planning and/or production experience
Experience with corporate events, trade shows, conferences or large-scale productions
Strong client-facing and vendor management skills
Excellent organization, communication and problem-solving abilities
Professional, proactive and detail-oriented
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys being part of the planning process—not someone who simply completes a task list.
You should be someone who:
Takes ownership
Enjoys collaborating with a team
Brings solutions, not just problems
Is excited to help create exceptional events
This role is ideal for someone who freelances, runs their own event business or enjoys project-based opportunities while still wanting to be part of a collaborative team.
Working Arrangement
This hybrid contract runs from September 2026 through May 2027.
The role includes regular online collaboration, approximately one in-person planning day per week in Toronto, client meetings, site visits and onsite event production. Workload will increase as major event dates approach.
This is a non-exclusive contract, and you’re welcome to continue working with other clients throughout the contract period.
Compensation
Compensation for this role will be discussed with the successful candidate and will be structured as a flat project fee based on experience, scope and responsibilities. The role is project-based rather than a traditional hourly position.
To Apply
Please submit your résumé along with a brief introduction about yourself and your event experience. We’d also love to see examples of events you’ve planned or produced and your role on those projects.
The successful candidate will be required to enter into a contractor agreement that includes confidentiality and client/project protection provisions.
Job Types: Part-time, Seasonal
Pay: $25.00 per hour
Benefits:
