About Trend Hunter
With nearly 3 billion views from over 150,000,000 people, Trend Hunter is the world’s largest, most popular trend website and an innovation consultancy. We help the world’s leading brands, like Starbucks, Google, Disney, Netflix, Universal, NASA, and Tesla, predict and create the future. With our New York Times bestselling methods, Artificial Intelligence, and big data, we’ve created thousands of custom trend reports, inspiring keynotes, action-oriented workshops, and epic Future Festival events.
Behind the scenes, we have a team of 60+ people, with our office located in the heart of Toronto’s Queen West neighbourhood. Wall Street Journal has featured us as Workplace of the Day; we are also “One of Canada’s Best Start-up Work Cultures,” according to Digital Magazine. We pride ourselves on our warm, dynamic culture, which prioritizes the personal and professional development of all team members. We value individual personality and celebrate all wins — big and small — within our organization through weekly End of Week get-togethers, a peer-nominated Platinum Rewards Program, team excursions, and an infectiously enthusiastic attitude. As an organization, we are committed to constantly improving our efforts within the causes we support through our employee-led DEI Committee, Eco Team, and our sister site, SocialBusiness.org.
Trend Hunter employees are currently working remotely, with plans to re-open our offices in January based on a hybrid model, where employees will be expected to come into the office at least once a week with their teams (our offices are located in downtown Toronto, at Queen S. & Spadina).
