Overview

We're a proudly Canadian company committed to innovation in the education technology space. As we continue to grow, we're looking for a creative and detail-oriented Marketing Specialist to support our marketing initiatives across digital and traditional channels.

The Marketing Specialist will play a key role in executing marketing campaigns, maintaining our digital presence, and supporting brand initiatives. This position is ideal for someone early in their marketing career who is eager to learn, experiment, and contribute to a growing EdTech company.

Why BusPlanner?

BusPlanner is the leading provider of student transportation management software in Canada. Our platform is used by hundreds of the largest school boards and consortia from coast to coast (Toronto District School Board, York Region District School Board, Peel Region School Board, and many others), helping optimize bus routes, manage planning and operations, and streamline communication between school transportation teams and families.

We are a proud Canadian company with deep expertise in K–12 education and a proven track record of supporting the unique needs of Canadian school districts. We are scaling rapidly and investing in marketing to accelerate our growth across Canada.

This is a rare opportunity to join a purpose-driven team at the heart of Canada's education technology ecosystem.
