Are you up for the challenge and the fun?  If so, consider the following opportunity!

Today's Shopping Choice (TSC) is both a retailer and a media company, operating a daily live TV home shopping service (nationally available in 10 million households) and a robust e-commerce storefront (tsc.ca). TSC is poised for exponential growth. As shoppers' behaviours change and the retail industry transforms quickly to adapt, TSC finds itself at the sweet spot of opportunity and ability to change. The desire to shop more easily from home combined with the rise in new models of video consumption across digital platforms, presents TSC's unique "story-selling" assets and expertise with a bright future forward.

 

We diligently operate the core business that is, and show up everyday to enthusiastically build towards the business that it can be. We are smart, brave, and ambitious. We believe in our growth and work together with a sense of purpose and urgency.
