Ottawa connectors and closers, we would like to meet you.
OBFF is hiring a Sponsorship Sales Executive who understands that great partnerships do more than put a logo on a screen. They help outstanding films get seen, filmmakers build careers and companies show up in ways audiences remember.

The role is commission-based, flexible and ready for an immediate start. Your earning potential is uncapped. So is the opportunity to make an impact.
