: Digital Marketing Lead / Specialist Position Overview:

We are seeking a highly motivated and strategic Digital Marketing Specialist to build and scale our digital marketing infrastructure from the ground up. This role is pivotal in driving international and domestic enrollment by targeting international students and workers in Canada. The ideal candidate will be a hands‑on executor and a strategic thinker, taking full ownership of lead generation, ad creation, campaign setup, and the integration of cutting‑edge AI tools to optimize our marketing efforts.

Role Specifics & Responsibilities This role requires a “full‑stack” marketer who can handle both the technical setup and the creative execution.

- Digital System Setup & Strategy (Building from Scratch)

Architect and implement the college’s digital marketing technology stack (e.g., integrating ad platforms with CRM - GoHighLevel).

Develop end-to‑end user journeys and tracking mechanisms (Google Analytics 4, Meta Pixel, Google Tag Manager) to ensure every lead is tracked from first click to enrollment.

Establish SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) for digital lead handling and nurturing.

- Lead Generation & Campaign Management

Design, launch, and manage multi‑channel paid acquisition campaigns focused on high‑intent lead generation across Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google Search,



Google Display, LinkedIn, and TikTok.

Target specific demographics accurately, particularly temporary residents, open work permit holders, and international students currently in Canada.

Monitor daily campaign budgets, pacing, and bid strategies to lower the Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) and maximize Return on Ad Spend (ROAS).

- Ad Creation & Copywriting

Conceptualize and design high‑converting ad creatives (images, short‑form videos, carousels) tailored to the educational sector.

Write compelling, culturally nuanced ad copy that resonates with international audiences and highlights the college’s unique value propositions (e.g., career outcomes, immigration pathways, flexible schedules).

Run continuous A/B tests on creatives, copy, and landing pages to optimize conversion rates.

- AI Adoption & Automation

Spearhead the adoption of AI tools to accelerate content creation, automate workflows, and personalize lead nurturing (e.g., using ChatGPT/Claude for copy, Midjourney for conceptual assets, or AI‑driven video editors).

Implement AI chatbots or automated email sequences to engage prospective students 24/7 and qualify leads before they reach the admissions team.

- Analytics & Reporting

Build real‑time dashboards to report on crucial metrics: Lead Volume, Cost Per Lead (CPL), Conversion Rate, and Enrollment Rate.

Translate raw data into actionable insights to pivot strategies when necessary.
