TICO Launches Recruitment for its Industry Advisory Council – Apply Today!
May 26, 2025
The Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO) has launched recruitment for four positions on its Industry Advisory Council (IAC). The purpose of the IAC is to provide guidance and advice to the Board of Directors and senior management in the execution of TICO’s mandate.
There is a complementary Consumer Advisory Council (CAC) dedicated to receiving feedback from consumers, and industry members focused on the consumer experience.
Members of both councils are expected to possess a positive orientation towards TICO’s consumer protection mandate.
Recruiting members for the IAC
TICO is recruiting four members to join its IAC. Our goal is to select members representing a broad range of registrant business models reflective of different products, delivery channels, and consumer groups from across the province.
In addition to a positive orientation towards consumer protection, we are also looking for prospective members who:
- Are collaborative and can actively engage in discussions;
- Understand and embrace TICO’s consumer protection mandate;
- Considered by peers as independent thinkers recognized for consensus building with strong strategic, risk management, communications and teamwork skills;
- Represent the diversity of Ontario, willing to consider a broad range of perspectives; and
- Have unquestionable integrity, credibility and high ethical standards.
The IAC will meet up to four times per year, ideally in-person, where members have the time to commit to becoming a strong contributor.
Apply to join the IAC
If you are interested in representing your travel sector perspective and contributing to the future of TICO’s consumer protection mandate, please follow this two-step process:

The deadline for applications is Friday, June 20, 2025 at 4 p.m.
For more information
A detailed Terms of Reference is available on TICO’s website, which provides further details, context and expectations for future IAC members. Common to similar public sector councils, members should expect a reasonable but thorough review of their candidacy, including an interview and necessary background checks.
To further encourage participation, and reflect the expected modest time commitment, a standard per diem will be paid to members attending meetings.
Please note that membership will only be permitted on one TICO council, in the event there is also interest in applying to the CAC. More information about the CAC and membership requirements can be found on TICO’s website.
