Senior Marketing Manager
Are you a brand marketer who knows how to bring a national hospitality brand to life — consistently, creatively, and at scale?
This is a chance to step into a Senior Marketing Manager role with a nationally recognized premium-casual restaurant group that’s built something truly distinctive — a place where food, drink, and culture intersect in a way that feels welcoming, energetic, and unapologetically human.
As Senior Marketing Manager, you’ll be the steward of the brand across Canada. You’ll lead how it shows up — in restaurants, campaigns, partnerships, and guest experiences — ensuring consistency while continuing to evolve what the brand stands for as the business expands.
This role is ideal for a marketer who loves being close to the work, thrives in fast-paced environments, and wants real influence over how a beloved consumer brand comes to life.
As the Senior Marketing Manager you will...
- Execute the brand strategy across all channels, ensuring a clear, consistent, and compelling presence nationwide
- Lead integrated brand and marketing initiatives — from seasonal campaigns to long-term brand storytelling
- Act as the brand guardian, ensuring tone, visuals, and messaging align across restaurant environments, digital, social, PR, and partnerships
- Collaborate closely with internal teams and external partners to bring campaigns from concept through execution
- Translate brand strategy into practical tools and guidelines that teams can actually use
- Analyze performance and guest insights to refine messaging and optimize future initiatives
- Support new initiatives and growth opportunities while protecting what makes the brand special
You have...
- 3-5 years of brand or marketing experience leading consumer-facing brands
- Comfortable balancing strategy with execution — you can think big and get things done
- Confident partnering cross-functionally and influencing without ego
- Fluent in brand storytelling, campaign development, and integrated marketing
- Organized, decisive, and energized by environments that move quickly
- Someone who understands that great brands are built through experience, not just messaging
- Experience in hospitality, food & beverage, retail, or lifestyle brands is a strong asset.
