Job description
Pour la version française, veuillez cliquer ici! We are Dulcedo

At Dulcedo, talent management is not about volume - it’s about strategy, structure, and long-term vision. We are a full-service talent management agency specializing in the representation of creators, influencers, athletes, models, and entertainment talent across North America and internationally. Our mission is to build scalable, sustainable careers for our talent while delivering white-glove service to the brands and partners who collaborate with them.

We manage the global careers of 500+ models, hundreds of Olympic and professional athletes, and a growing roster of top-tier digital creators, influencers, and streamers. With offices in Montreal and Toronto and an extensive network across Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and beyond, Dulcedo operates at the intersection of talent, culture, and entertainment. At the core of Dulcedo’s values and recruitment process is a strong commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Our current workforce is a celebration of diverse ethnic backgrounds, races, gender identities, sexual orientations, abilities, and lived experiences.
