6 days ago

Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aquent Full time

Are you an
agency-savvy account and production pro
who thrives on juggling multiple campaigns, managing photo shoots, and translating marketing plans into creative action? Our client's retail marketing team is looking for a contract
Programs Manager
who can do it all—while keeping projects organized, stakeholders happy, and creative assets on track.

What You'll Own

  • Lead omni-channel marketing campaigns across digital, print, photo, and in-store channels.
  • Manage production schedules, budgets, and timelines for flawless campaign execution.
  • Coordinate photo shoots and creative production, liaising with photographers, agencies, art directors, and internal teams.
  • Support Promo Social initiatives – nimble content creation, brief writing, quick thinking, and turning media plans into creative action.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with internal teams and senior stakeholders.
  • Oversee production execution on set and track all projects using Wrike.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of experience in account or production management (agency or client-side), ideally with an advertising agency background.
  • Hands-on photo production experience—comfortable on set and fluent with creative terminology.
  • Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite to review assets confidently.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills for client-facing and internal stakeholder interactions.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple projects in fast-paced, personality-driven environments.
  • Bonus: retail marketing or omni-channel campaign experience.

Why this role is a great fit
This role is perfect for someone who can
wear many hats
, balancing
Promo Social agility
with
expertise in larger campaign production
. You'll have the opportunity to lead projects, collaborate with multiple stakeholders, and help bring marketing campaigns to life across all channels.

What This Role Is Not

  • Not a creative strategy or design role—you won't be concepting campaigns.
  • Not a pure project coordination role—you will lead accounts, vendors, and production.
  • Not a senior director role—targeting a mid-level professional with 5+ years of experience.

Work setup:
Hybrid – 4 days/week on-site, with Fridays for WFH
