Role: Social Media Influencer and Social Media Community Manager

Location: 7299 East Danbro Crescent, Mississauga, Ontario L5N 6P8, Canada

Hiring Contact: Chris Bernaudo

Preferred Start Date: As Soon As Possible

Worksport has spent much of 2021 laying the groundwork for large revenue growth in 2022; therefore, little capital was designated towards marketing initiatives relative to our expected marketing spend for 2022. We are now looking for a senior, experienced, capable candidate to run our marketing campaigns in-house.

At Worksport, a great Influencer Marketing and Social Media Manager should:

Be our go-to when it comes to developing unique channel and content strategies. We are looking for a digital strategist who can develop and implement comprehensive influencer strategies and campaigns, manage owned, earned, and paid digital touchpoints that deliver on our objectives, and be proficient in front of and behind the camera. And while the proper candidate is comfortable on camera, he/she should know when to contract other people to be on camera as well.

We are looking for someone that can both be our community leader and a voice on all major social media channels. We want a persona that could engage our community and build it to new heights with out of the box thinking and a constant flow of assets.

Some responsibilities would include crafting proposals and budgets, developing content calendars, planning materials, finding and promoting our products through online product review channels and networks, and overseeing the deployment of digital assets that you created for all channels. You will also have to work closely with our marketing agency to provide them with all assets that could be used for paid media campaigns that they are running as well as working closely with in house media development to get larger projects done.

The ideal candidate has a strong marketing acumen and uses critical thinking to provide their audience with an engaging story that will create emotional connections between consumers and our brand. With 5+ years of experience in a digital marketing role, the successful candidate is a good collaborator and understands emerging trends and behaviors across digital channels, best digital practices, and how digital can provide solutions to better serve our overall goals. They are experts in KPI metrics and benchmark targets for organic campaigns. They know how to collect and deliver actionable data and analytics that support decision making and they know how to leverage social monitoring tools for qualitative marketing research and insights.

Most importantly, the ideal candidate should be content centric rather than strategy alone. We want our candidate to create unique and interesting social photos and videos that capture the attention of customers, investors, and the internet. This means that we would want to see some content featuring the company or products that aren’t necessarily selling something tangible. But getting eyeballs on the brand in general using tending topics and subjects. We do not want someone to just be behind the camera, we want someone that would feel comfortable on camera as well.

We offer a chance to grow as we grow, and the opportunity to work in the automotive and cleantech spaces.If you think you are the right person for the job and are interested in working at a growing company that is publicly traded on Nasdaq, then apply right away.

What can you expect from us?

Our mission is to get the attention of the world by any means possible. We intend to be a leader in the automotive aftermarket and cleantech spaces as we bring our newest technology and products to light. Expect a fast paced environment where you will constantly push limits. You will have some legal restrictions based on Worksport being a public company but we want to ride that line and not play it too safe. 

Expect to collaborate and communicate with the entire internal and external teams from engineering to marketing. Although there will be many times an idea would get turned down, we want to assure any applicants that this is only a reason to get more creative, not less. 

Follow us on Instagram, Twitter and linkedIn @worksportltd to stay up to date on Worksport career opportunities. We do appreciate all interest; however only those selected for interview will be contacted.

5. Knowledge of FTC blogger guidelines.
6. Problem-solving – resourceful, creative hands-on approach to brand building and problem solving.
7. Flexibility – the world of social media is 24/7 while we don’t expect employees to be always on, this role is not 9-5. This role demands listening and responding with our community in a reasonable and timely manner. Travel, evening and weekend event coverage or crisis monitoring may be necessary periodically.

Role: 

Creative producer. Full-time. 

About the role: 

We are looking for someone who is as much a creative as they are a producer. Organised, but in a fun way. You will approach problems with the ability to always find a solution and enjoy the journey problem solving takes you on. You will be able to think on your feet, think outside the box and many other clichés about someone who is generally smart and positive. 

We want someone who is incredibly organised, meticulous and has a good head for numbers. Our clients are interesting, knowledgeable and driven, and we need someone who can match that energy. Energy is something we want you to bring every day. 

As a Creative Producer, you will be our client’s point of contact. You will use your vast knowledge of the creative process to help our clients work too clever solutions that can save them time and money without harming the work. We have creative producers instead of account managers. This is because we are as much a production company as we are an agency. So we always look for people who can comfortably bridge that gap. 

We are a new company, and we work differently from traditional agencies, that’s why our clients choose to work with us. While we may spend a lot of time in various photographic studios, creating everything from campaign images to social films, we also deliver the most services you would expect from an advertising agency. This could be strategy, social media management or creative development, so a good working knowledge of the entire creative process is necessary. You need to know the difference between an idea and an execution. You will be writing model briefs and working with photographers on lighting lists. You should understand the difference between Da Vinci Resolve and After Effects. 

Whilst we are a London centric company, our team is split between the UK and Buenos Aires, so we are all about remote working. We understand that the 9-5 is dead in the world of media, so we will offer flexible start and finish times, allow you to pick where you work from and take those necessary days off for those unforeseen things that happen. If you are responsible enough to manage clients for us, you are responsible enough to manage your own time efficiently. As long as a good job gets done, we are happy for you to work out how to do it. 

We want someone who is passionate and wants to grow with the company. You will help us find new clients and make the work we do for our current clients better. We will support your growth in any way we can and can guarantee you will learn new skills, work with some of the industry’s best people and have great fun while you do it. We are looking for someone to start on the 1st of March. 

As a bit of test to help us find who is taking this application seriously, I ask that you respond to this post via email ([email protected]) with a brief outline of how you would approach the following: 

‘A client wants us to create ten social posts for a product launch they are doing. We have a signed off brief in our inbox, and they just need the completed assets. They want two films and eight photos of two models holding the product, shot in a studio environment. What is the list of actions you would go through to complete this task?’ Please keep your response simple; a list of actions is perfect. 

If you do have further questions, please reach out.
