ABOUT THE ROLE
Float’s Marketing team is hiring a Brand Manager to make Float the most talked-about name in Canadian business. You’ll own our out-of-home and brand media budget and spend it on big, bold bets: integrated campaigns, sponsorships that go well past a logo, and fast responses to the cultural moments everyone else misses.
You know our product and customers well enough that every idea feels unmistakably Float, and you’ll set the creative bar for every brief, agency and campaign. You are the right fit if you can take a campaign from an idea to a billboard on the Gardiner and then show what it did for the business.
WHAT YOU'LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
- Drive integrated campaigns and brand moments from brief through measurement. Turn cultural and news moments into Float moments by spotting the opening and shipping a response in days, not quarters.
- Build Float’s out-of-home and brand media strategy: plan, buy, and measure campaigns, source and manage vendors, spend and report on the budget. Coordinate with Performance Marketing so campaigns run cohesively both online and IRL.
- Own sponsorships with media outlets and partners to build Float’s brand presence beyond a logo placement through co-hosted events, podcasts, newsletters and ad placements.
- Deeply understand our product, our customers, and our target accounts so that every idea is unmistakably Float.
- Raise Float’s creative bar, you’ll brief designers, agencies and creators, and give feedback that makes the work bold and on brand.
- Establish measurement frameworks that evaluate brand health, campaign performance, and sponsorship ROI.
- Use AI tools every day to move faster and scale output, while exercising judgment and decision making when needed.
WHAT YOU'LL BRING
- 5 to 7 years in brand or integrated marketing, ideally in B2B, SaaS, or fintech.
- You've planned, bought, and owned the budget for out-of-home or brand media buys.
- Experience leading integrated campaigns that you can walk us through from concept to results.
- You’ve worked alongside sales and can explain how a brand moment helps an account executive close a deal.
- Strong creative judgment: you can brief designers and agencies and give feedback that makes the work better.
- Practical AI fluency, with examples of how it speeds up your planning, briefing, or reporting.
