The world needs more Canada.

Destination Canada is looking for a
Co-op Marketing Lead to join our Vancouver team as we inspire travellers to explore Canada.

As part of the Global team, this role, initiates, manages and executes coop marketing activities with strategic trade and industry partners.

The individual project manages the execution of tactical plans, ensuring activities and campaigns developed with third parties are delivered on budget, within established timeframes, meet the Canada brand needs and obtain target KPIs.

The marketing plans developed and implemented are cross-channel, integrated third-party partnership marketing plans that include multiple types of media from both parties - paid, earned (media relations & PR), and owned (website and social).

The individual must ensure these various components are integrated, including ensuring content, editorial, creative, and media plans support the market plan and objectives.

This requires significant collaboration across departments, working closely with content and media teams, the travel trade partner and on occasion, external agencies.

This requires people skills such as leadership, influence, diplomacy and negotiation.

Destination Canada strives to be an agile organization that responds to a fast-paced industry. The individual will require the skills and personal attributes to support this goal.
