The City of Toronto is seeking a dynamic and visionary Medical Officer of Health to play a crucial role and guide the Toronto Public Health organization into a future where all people can be healthy and thrive. Reporting to the Board of Health and in coordination with the Deputy City Manager, the Medical Officer of Health will be at the forefront of shaping innovative public health strategies that address both emerging and long-standing health challenges, with a focus on promoting equity, resilience, and community well-being.
The City of Toronto Toronto is Canada’s leading economic engine and one of the world’s most diverse and livable cities. As the fourth largest city in North America, Toronto is home to more than 2.9 million residents whose diversity and experiences strengthen our great city. Toronto is an international leader in technology, finance, film, music, culture, and innovation. Toronto consistently places at the top of international rankings due in part to investments championed by residents and businesses, and in turn led by Toronto City Council and carried out through the work of the Toronto Public Service.
Toronto Public Health Toronto Public Health (TPH) reports to the Board of Health and is responsible for the health and well-being to more than 2.9 million residents, striving to reduce health inequalities and improve the health of the entire population by delivering services that meet community health needs, comply with Ontario Public Health Standards, and make wise use of human and financial resources. Today, TPH is the largest public health unit in Canada and the 5th largest in North America with over 1,800 employees.
Key Responsibilities In this role, you will be responsible for advancing Toronto Public Health’s Strategic Plan 2024-2028 , which is centered on strengthening health protection, promoting mental health, and advancing health equity across the city’s diverse population. This is a unique opportunity to lead in a city that is a global leader in public health, technology, and cultural innovation.
The Medical Officer of Health will focus on several key priorities to ensure success in the coming months and years. Central to this will be building and managing relationships, both internally within the political and bureaucratic systems—including the City Manager, Deputy City Managers, and Division Heads—and externally with a wide range of stakeholders. Effective budget and financial resource management will also be crucial, particularly in a period of fiscal constraint.
In addition to these responsibilities, maintaining strong relationships with all Board members will be vital. Understanding their perspectives, keeping them informed, and helping them understand the significance of strategic and policy initiatives will be essential for collaborative progress. The new leader will also need to establish their own brand, becoming a sought-after voice on various initiatives while navigating and leveraging the City's administrative system to work effectively within it.
A key priority will be implementing the current strategic plan while remaining responsive to community needs and effectively managing the budget in a period of fiscal constraint. Building strong connections with Public Health Ontario, leaders across the health sector, and provincial/national counterparts will be imperative. Engaging with both external and internal partners on health and non-health-related issues will help position Toronto Public Health (TPH) as a central player in city development.
Equally important will be fostering a cohesive team, ensuring efficient operations, and maintaining high staff satisfaction, engagement, and performance. Succession planning for key leadership roles within the organization will also be critical. Addressing and advancing priority policy and program areas—such as social determinants of health, income inequality, poverty reduction, climate change, Indigenous health, marijuana regulation, substance use and harm reduction (including but not limited to safe injection sites), student nutrition, toxins, air quality, healthy living, seniors' health, chronic disease, mental health, infectious diseases, and health equity—will require dedicated attention.

The City of Toronto is seeking a dynamic and visionary Medical Officer of Health to play a crucial role and guide the Toronto Public Health organization into a future where all people can be healthy and thrive. Reporting to the Board of Health and in coordination with the Deputy City Manager, the Medical Officer of Health will be at the forefront of shaping innovative public health strategies that address both emerging and long-standing health challenges, with a focus on promoting equity, resilience, and community well-being.
The City of Toronto Toronto is Canada’s leading economic engine and one of the world’s most diverse and livable cities. As the fourth largest city in North America, Toronto is home to more than 2.9 million residents whose diversity and experiences strengthen our great city. Toronto is an international leader in technology, finance, film, music, culture, and innovation. Toronto consistently places at the top of international rankings due in part to investments championed by residents and businesses, and in turn led by Toronto City Council and carried out through the work of the Toronto Public Service.
Toronto Public Health Toronto Public Health (TPH) reports to the Board of Health and is responsible for the health and well-being to more than 2.9 million residents, striving to reduce health inequalities and improve the health of the entire population by delivering services that meet community health needs, comply with Ontario Public Health Standards, and make wise use of human and financial resources. Today, TPH is the largest public health unit in Canada and the 5th largest in North America with over 1,800 employees.
Key Responsibilities In this role, you will be responsible for advancing Toronto Public Health’s Strategic Plan 2024-2028 , which is centered on strengthening health protection, promoting mental health, and advancing health equity across the city’s diverse population. This is a unique opportunity to lead in a city that is a global leader in public health, technology, and cultural innovation.
The Medical Officer of Health will focus on several key priorities to ensure success in the coming months and years. Central to this will be building and managing relationships, both internally within the political and bureaucratic systems—including the City Manager, Deputy City Managers, and Division Heads—and externally with a wide range of stakeholders. Effective budget and financial resource management will also be crucial, particularly in a period of fiscal constraint.
In addition to these responsibilities, maintaining strong relationships with all Board members will be vital. Understanding their perspectives, keeping them informed, and helping them understand the significance of strategic and policy initiatives will be essential for collaborative progress. The new leader will also need to establish their own brand, becoming a sought-after voice on various initiatives while navigating and leveraging the City's administrative system to work effectively within it.
A key priority will be implementing the current strategic plan while remaining responsive to community needs and effectively managing the budget in a period of fiscal constraint. Building strong connections with Public Health Ontario, leaders across the health sector, and provincial/national counterparts will be imperative. Engaging with both external and internal partners on health and non-health-related issues will help position Toronto Public Health (TPH) as a central player in city development.
Equally important will be fostering a cohesive team, ensuring efficient operations, and maintaining high staff satisfaction, engagement, and performance. Succession planning for key leadership roles within the organization will also be critical. Addressing and advancing priority policy and program areas—such as social determinants of health, income inequality, poverty reduction, climate change, Indigenous health, marijuana regulation, substance use and harm reduction (including but not limited to safe injection sites), student nutrition, toxins, air quality, healthy living, seniors' health, chronic disease, mental health, infectious diseases, and health equity—will require dedicated attention. Finally, garnering positive media attention, effectively communicating and promoting TPH’s work, and maintaining or increasing TPH's reputation with the citizens of Toronto, the Province, and nationally will be crucial for overall success.
