Career Opportunity
Join our Innovation and Strategic Projects department as the Manager, Non Fare Revenue Business Development. This is a 24 month temporary role offering an exciting opportunity to drive new revenue initiatives across the organization.
What You Will Do
Reporting to the Executive Director Innovation, Sustainability & Strategic Projects, you will drive non-fare revenue generation for the TTC by proactively identifying opportunities across stations, vehicles, digital platforms, retail spaces, real estate, and TTC rights of way looking for partnerships and programs that both generate income and elevate the customer experience. A key part of your work will involve building strong commercial relationships with private sector partners, agencies, and vendors, and bringing forward innovative ideas that reflect industry trends and changing customer expectations.
You will take ownership of sourcing, evaluating, and shaping new non-fare revenue initiatives, using market research, benchmarking, and business case development to assess potential, understand risks, and anticipate customer impact. From there, you will negotiate and manage commercial agreements—such as sponsorships, naming rights, licensing arrangements, and vendor contracts—while working closely with Legal, Procurement, Operational and other TTC teams to ensure alignment with organizational policies and public sector requirements.
Another aspect of the role involves activating TTC spaces and bringing them to life through events, partnerships, brand experiences, community programming, and short term retail opportunities. To support this work, you will conduct on site inspections of TTC properties and retail tenants, ensuring spaces are well positioned for commercial use and operationally sound.
You will also play a strategic role by setting revenue and customer satisfaction targets and monitoring the performance of existing programs. This includes identifying ways to optimize or expand ongoing initiatives and presenting recommendations, reports, and insights to senior leadership and TTC governance bodies. Throughout, you will collaborate with departments across the organization to integrate revenue driven ideas into capital projects, station improvements, and broader customer focused initiatives.
Staying connected to industry developments will be important, and you will continuously monitor emerging technologies, best practices, and trends in transit based commercial programs.
In addition to the above, you will demonstrate behaviours that support diversity, inclusion and a respectful work and service environment that is free from discrimination and harassment. Helps to remove barriers and accommodate employees and customers (within their area of responsibility) in accordance with TTC’s commitments and obligations under the Ontario Human Rights Code (OHRC) and Related Orders, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA), and TTC’s policies.
