About the Role
The Marketing Coordinator supports the marketing and brand function across graphic design, video, and campaign execution. This is a practical, generalist role for someone who enjoys variety and wants to build broad marketing experience across many areas of the marketing mix. We are looking for a capable all rounder, ideally with a particular strength in video and graphics, rather than a specialist in any single area.
The role works closely with the Senior Manager, Marketing and Brand, who sets and owns the marketing strategy and creative direction. The coordinator contributes ideas to that direction and focuses on bringing it to life through strong execution. The coordinator also works with CVCA’s Communications and Content Manager on video and other platform native content, supporting the technical and execution side. The role suits someone with roughly two to four years of experience who can pick things up quickly, work independently once briefed, and take ownership of the details.
Responsibilities
- Support the execution of marketing campaigns, from initial setup through scheduling, publishing, and reporting.
- Maintain and update content on the CVCA website through the content management system.
- Help produce marketing materials for CVCA events and conferences, including promotional assets and content used during the events.
- Support the production of video and other platform native content, including editing short form social video, event recaps, and cutdowns of webinars and panels, and preparing it for each platform with captions, thumbnails, and the right formats.
- Design graphics, motion graphics, and visual assets that follow CVCA brand guidelines, using the team’s design tools.
- From time to time, the role may also involve writing short copy for social media, event materials, and other channels, in line with the CVCA brand.
- Share responsibility with the marketing and communications team for scheduling and publishing social media content across CVCA’s platforms, monitoring engagement, and responding or escalating as appropriate.
- Help deliver sponsor activations across social, web, and on site placements.
- Contribute ideas that help shape the creative direction of campaigns and brand work, which the Senior Manager, Marketing and Brand sets and approves.
- Design executive and member facing presentations with direction from the marketing and brand lead.
- Work closely with the Events team on event marketing and related brand design.
- Coordinate daily marketing tasks and keep projects moving toward their deadlines.
- Assist with performance reporting by gathering results and summarizing what is working well.
- Identify opportunities to improve the marketing technology stack, and recommend changes that could reduce cost or improve productivity, for review by the Senior Manager, Marketing and Brand.
- Provide support at CVCA events as needed.
Qualifications
- Roughly two to four years of experience in a marketing, communications, content, or design role.
- A generalist marketing skill set spanning campaign execution, social media, graphic design, and video editing, supported by solid writing skills. We are looking for someone with clear strength in video or graphic design and the willingness to develop the other areas, rather than an expert in every area.
- Working knowledge of the Adobe Creative Cloud, along with comfort using other tools for fast, platform native content, such as CapCut or Canva.
- A portfolio or reel that shows your design or video work, including content created for social media.
- Comfort managing several tasks at once and a habit of taking ownership of the details.
- The ability to work independently once given direction, with the judgment to ask questions when something is unclear.
- Familiarity with common marketing platforms, such as email marketing tools, social media schedulers, and content management systems.
Assets
The following experience is welcome but not required:
- Experience creating short form or platform native content for professional or business audiences.
- Experience marketing events or conferences.
- Working knowledge of SEO, SEM, and web analytics.
- Experience with CRM or marketing automation platforms, such as Salesforce, Pardot, or Hubspot.
- Exposure to print design, including an understanding of paper stocks, colour, and finishes.
- An interest in venture capital, private equity, or the broader Canadian business and finance landscape.
