Logistics Our office is located at 14 Birch Avenue, in the Summerhill area of midtown Toronto, but we’ve mostly been working from home/remotely since 2020. Since it became safe to return to the office, we have implemented a Flexible Work Options Policy that give our team a desirable balance between primarily working from home with the option for collaborative time in the office.
We host four annual on-site all-staff days each calendar year, but there are also occasions where your presence is needed in-person for client or planning meetings.
About the Company
We’re Central Station and we’re a different kind of agency with unique skills. For clients looking for branding and design, physical experiences, or digital marketing — and when it has to be best in class — we’re here for them. We’re independently owned by six partners from different disciplines. We knew there was a better way of creating work that is Central to clients today, so we built an agency around it. We’re 40 people and growing. We have a talented team of designers, developers, strategists, art directors, writers, account managers, project managers, digital marketers, and production people.
Our client roster spans a broad range of product categories. Most are Canadian, some are North American, and a handful are Global. Some use us for B2B, some B2C and others, both. Most have been with us for 7-20 years, others we’ve targeted and acquired over the past 2-3 years. Our top clients include The Miller Group, KPMG, Samsung, Atlas Roofing Corporation, St. Francis Herb Farm, Nike, Wajax, and the City of Guelph.
