If you boast any prior experience in customer service, human resources, or contract management, you may qualify for a role in the TTC Board that could earn you an extra $450 for every meeting you attend. 

On Thursday, the City announced that it is on the hunt for qualified applicants with experience in payment technologies, labour relations, and management to join the TTC Board. 

The board consists of 10 members, six of which are members of council, and four of which are public members. The term of office for the latter is four years, and to be eligible for appointment, you'll need to meet several requirements. 

To qualify, you must be a resident of the City of Toronto, be at least 18 years old, cannot be a spouse, partner, child, or parent of a member of Toronto City Council, and cannot be a City employee of a City agency or corporation. 

The City is seeking applicants with experience in payment technologies, human resources and contract management for the TTC Board. Learn more and apply by January 31 at: https://t.co/SSV29tFf3c #tocouncil pic.twitter.com/lAz1Ag8zcC

If you're an owner, employee, or agent of a company that is engaged in business with the TTC, you won't be considered for a position as a public member. 

The ideal candidate should have directorship and executive-level experience, and experience with one or more large organizations in strategies business management, financial management, formulation of public-private partnerships, capital project or construction management, industrial safety management, urban sustainability, inclusive governance, or intersectionality. 

Meetings are typically held once a month, although additional meetings may be called. The public member vice chair receives a $10,000 annual retainer, and other public members receive a $5,000 annual retainer. Public members will also receive a $450 per diem for meetings attended. 

If you have some extra time on your hands and this sounds like your dream opportunity, you can submit your application by Jan. 31, 2025.
