Careers

Work with us!

Social media isn’t just part of your day… It’s your playground! You’re the type who can whip up a caption that sparks conversation, design a graphic that stops the scroll, and dive into analytics to prove it all worked. Oh, and you’ve got creative ideas (lots of them).

Sound familiar? Then you might just be our next Digital & Social Media Marketing Specialist!

We’re a dynamic, collaborative team that thrives on creativity, strategy, and a healthy dose of fun. We cheer each other on, celebrate wins (big and small), and aren’t afraid to push boundaries to create purpose-driven marketing campaigns that make an impact. Reporting to the Associate Director of Operations & Marketing, you’ll be right in the action, building strategies, creating standout content, writing reports that tell a story, and launching campaigns that actually deliver. Social media may be your sweet spot, but if you’ve also dabbled in media buying, copywriting, AI, SEO, or video editing, we’re all ears. And if you’re fluent in English and French? That’s a serious bonus!

This is a hybrid role, so while you’ll mostly work remotely, you’ll also join us in our Toronto office as needed. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 9:30 am–5:30 pm ET. We believe in great work and work-life balance.
