The Digital Marketing Specialist is responsible for owning and optimizing the customer journey across digital channels, with a strong focus on lifecycle marketing, automation, and paid media performance. This role plays a critical part in driving customer acquisition, engagement, retention, and lifetime value through data-driven digital strategies.

Design, build, and optimize end-to-end lifecycle programs, including lead nurturing, onboarding, retention, and win-back campaigns.

Develop and maintain advanced segmentation strategies to deliver targeted messaging across email, SMS, and in-platform communications.

Create and manage automated workflows and behavioural triggers that guide prospects and customers through each stage of the funnel.

Analyze customer behaviour and funnel performance to identify drop-off points and conversion opportunities.

Continuously test and optimize campaigns using A/B and multivariate testing to improve engagement, conversion rates, and customer lifetime value.

Digital Advertising & Paid Media

Plan, execute, and optimize paid digital advertising campaigns across platforms such as Google Ads and META (Facebook/Instagram).

Build acquisition and remarketing campaigns aligned to business objectives and customer lifecycle stages.

Develop paid media creative and messaging strategies in collaboration with internal stakeholders.

Manage budgets, pacing, and performance to ensure strong ROI and cost efficiency.

Monitor campaign performance and provide clear reporting, insights, and recommendations for ongoing optimization.

Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure alignment between promotions, messaging, and customer experience.

What you bring:

3–5+ years of hands-on experience in digital marketing, lifecycle marketing, or performance marketing.

Strong experience with email marketing platforms and marketing automation tools (e.g., Mailchimp, HubSpot, ActiveCampaign, or similar).

Experience managing paid media campaigns across Google Ads and META platforms.

Strong experience with Google Analytics, Tag Manager, and conversion tracking.

Experience supporting multi-location or multi-brand businesses.

Proven ability to build and optimize lifecycle journeys, automation workflows, and segmentation strategies.

Strong analytical skills with the ability to translate data into actionable insights.

Comfortable working independently, managing priorities, and owning results end-to-end.

Nice to Have

Experience with SMS marketing platforms.

Exposure to CRO, landing page optimization, or CRM integrations.

Location and Travel:

This is a hybrid role, with the option to report to our New Westminster or Woodbridge offices. The position includes a mix of remote and in-office work.

Occasional travel may be required to support team events, conventions, and grand openings.

What We Offer:

Salary: $65,000–$70,000/year
