Baby Ghosts helps small studios and collectives in games and media arts set up as worker cooperatives, so that they own their work and the profits of their labour. We’re a registered Canadian charity, and we’re building four regional hubs, with hub cities in Halifax, Vancouver, Toronto and Edmonton. Each one needs a coordinator who lives in the region; the hub city is where the in-person work happens, and travel there is covered when the work needs you in person.
This is a five-month build contract, November 2, 2026, to March 31, 2027: $30,000 at a fixed fee ($6,000 a month), about 25 hours a week, which works out to about $55 an hour. It’s a contract for services, not employment. You set up the hub, map the region, bring people into the Peer Support network, build a list of studios ready for the next cohort, write the regional toolkit, build the partnership of at least three local organizations that carries the hub after March,
with agreements signed by handoff, and hand the hub over with everything the partners need. What you build is what the region keeps.
Baby Ghosts works with creators who are marginalized in games. We especially want to hear from people who are part of those communities in their region: Indigenous, Black and racialized, women and gender-diverse, 2SLGBTQ+, disabled, and rural or remote creators.
The full posting, the fee, the dates and the three questions on the form are at babyghosts.org/hubs/coordinators. Applications close Friday, October 16, 2026, 11:59 pm Pacific time. Everyone hears by October 19 whether we’d like to talk. Calls are October 20 to 23, decisions by October 26, contracts start November 2.
