Big Boys With Cool Toys is looking for an experienced, hands-on Digital Marketing, Ecommerce & Technology Manager to join our team in Mississauga.
This is NOT a freelance position, NOT a consulting position, and NOT a fully remote position.
We are looking for someone who wants to become a real part of our company, work directly with ownership and staff, learn our operation, understand our products and customers, and take responsibility for helping improve our digital marketing, ecommerce, technology and automation systems.
IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING
DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU HAVE THE EXPERIENCE WE ARE LOOKING FOR.
We are not looking for someone who has simply boosted Facebook posts, made occasional Instagram content, taken an online marketing course, or managed a small advertising account.
We need someone with real, hands-on experience who can demonstrate that they know how to manage, analyze and improve an established ecommerce business.
DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU HAVE STRONG EXPERIENCE WITH:
- Meta Ads Manager
- Facebook and Instagram advertising
- Meta Business Manager
- Meta Pixel and conversion tracking
- Campaign optimization and budgeting
- Retargeting and audience development
- Google Ads
- Google Shopping
- Performance Max
- Google Merchant Center
- Google Analytics
- Shopify
- Ecommerce conversion optimization
- Product feeds and large product catalogues
- Reporting and analytics
- ROAS, CPA, CPC, CTR and conversion-rate analysis
- Website and ecommerce troubleshooting
- Technology and automation
- Working independently and completing projects
- Managing significant advertising budgets responsibly
If you have to learn the basics of these platforms after being hired, this is not the position for you.
What We Are Looking For
We want someone who can walk into an active ecommerce operation, look at what we are currently doing, understand it, identify problems and opportunities, and start helping us make improvements.
You must be comfortable being accountable for your work.
We do not want someone who disappears for several days, works without communication and then sends a report explaining what they were doing.
We want someone who communicates with ownership and the team, understands current priorities, executes the work and can clearly demonstrate:
- What you worked on
- What you changed
- Why you changed it
- What was accomplished
- What the numbers are showing
- What needs to happen next

Supplier & Inventory Integration

- Facebook
- Instagram
- TikTok
- Promotions
- Product launches
- Advertising creative
- Graphics
- Video
- Influencer campaigns
- Affiliate programs
This is not primarily a social-media-posting position. We are looking for someone who understands the business, advertising and ecommerce side behind the content.

- Inventory moves
- Orders are processed
- Products are received and shipped
- Warranty department works
- Pre-orders work
- Suppliers operate
- Customer-service systems operate
- Marketing connects with actual day-to-day operations
You cannot understand this business properly by sitting at home and communicating only through email.
Remote Work
Limited remote work may eventually be available for work that genuinely makes sense to perform remotely.
Depending on performance, responsibilities and the projects underway, approximately one or two remote days during a five-business-day week may be considered.
Remote work must be approved and there must be a clear workload and deliverables for those working hours.
A permanent hybrid arrangement can be discussed later once you understand the business and demonstrate your ability to independently manage your responsibilities.
