We’re looking for a Marketing Strategy & Planning Specialist to join the Global Growth and Experiences Marketing (GGEM) team. You’ll report to the Head of Strategy & Planning (Chief of Staff), and work closely with the VP and senior leaders in the GGEM team. On the business side, you’ll keep our global growth and experiential (field) marketing budget on track and our special projects moving. This is an early-career role for someone who is sharp, persistent, and trusted with sensitive information, and who also genuinely enjoys people and communications. You’ll learn how a global marketing organization plans, spends, and delivers, and you’ll help make it a great place to work while you do. This role is remote within Canada, with a preference for Mountain / Pacific time. Help oversee the global growth and experiential marketing budget: track spend against plan, reconcile actuals, and flag variances early. Partner with Finance and regional marketing teams on forecasting, accruals, and quarterly budget reviews. Help hold marketing teams accountable to finance best practices and standards. You’ll monitor compliance, follow up persistently on gaps,



and help teams understand and apply the process. Use our finance and planning tools to track budgets, spend, and approvals. Own our team culture programs, including planning and running our all-hands from agenda to follow-up. Build solid relationships across the whole department. Help people work better together by connecting the right folks, smoothing out friction, and making it easy to collaborate across teams. Project & Program Coordination Coordinate special projects on behalf of the group and the VP, from kickoff through completion: set timelines, assign owners, track dependencies, and follow up. Keep projects organized with clear plans, status updates, and documented next steps. Spot risks and gaps early, select what needs to be escalated and to whom, and raise it with a recommended path forward. Write concise, well-tailored emails, updates, and presentations for audiences ranging from regional teams to senior leaders. Prepare materials for business reviews, QBRs, and leadership meetings. Help maintain the team’s operating rhythm: planning calendars, recurring reviews, and process documentation. Learn and use our finance, planning, and project management tools, and suggest ways to make our processes simpler and faster. Experience in project coordination, program management, marketing operations, finance operations, event or internal communications, or a similar role. Internships and early-career experience count.
