Jon Rees Email & Phone Number

An experienced events and marketing professional, movie buff, and optimist. I've been able to collect experience in the roller-coaster worlds of media, tourism, and professional sports.From creating compelling radio campaigns, reporting for the 2010 Olympic Winter games, to working in television with popular brands such as Modern Family, The Bachelor, and Breakfast Television, my career path has allowed me to collect a plethora of invaluable skills. Ask me about the time I announced a Canadian Gold Medal live on-air, interviewed Prime Minister Stephen Harper, and met Tony Hawk, all in the same day.I received my start in pro sports as Senior Marketing Manager for Vancouver Whitecaps FC in Major League Soccer. Branding, integrated ad campaigns, fan development, along with digital and social media were just some of the day to day encounters of my job. From there, I worked for one of BC's Top Employer's and most loved brands, the Vancouver Airport Authority. From marketing campaigns, special events, digital advertising, and agency management, I helped curate and spread innovation throughout the ten-time North American Airport of the year.Now back at Whitecaps FC as part of the Senior Leadership Team, I lead and inspire a team of event and experience professionals while providing strategic leadership for club events both in the stadium and in the community. I enjoy making new professional acquaintances. Reach out if you want to talk events, experience, marketing, brand, or The Avengers.
