About the Role:

We are looking for a detail-oriented and highly organized B2B Marketing Specialist to support the execution of integrated marketing programs across trade and field channels. A key part of this role is managing the end-to-end Point-of-Sale Materials (POSM) lifecycle — from strategic planning to production and distribution — while ensuring brand consistency and channel relevance.

You’ll collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing and Product/Design teams and manage relationships with both local and international vendors, including China-based suppliers. This is an exciting opportunity to bring together strategic planning, project management, and creativity in a fast-paced, customer-focused environment.

Key Responsibilities:

POSM Strategy & Execution

• Develop and execute POSM strategies that align with marketing campaigns, sales objectives, and channel requirements.
• Oversee the facilitation and logistics of POSM: ordering, inventory management, and on-time distribution of in-store marketing materials.
• Collaborate with local and international printing vendors, including China-based suppliers, to coordinate production timelines, ensure quality standards, manage shipping logistics, and purchase orders.
• Customize POSM content by region, channel, or campaign to increase local market relevance and engagement.
• Coordinate with design and brand teams to ensure delivery of high-quality, on-brand creative assets, and innovative POSM.
• Maintain an organized, accessible POSM database and asset library for internal and field team use.

Trade Marketing & Channel Activation

• Execute the trade marketing calendar in alignment with product launches, seasonal campaigns, and key sales initiatives.
• Collaborate with Digital, E-commerce, and Web teams to launch omnichannel promotions that improve B2B customer experience and boost conversion.
• Partner with manufacturers and third-party vendors to ensure marketing collateral is compliant with brand guidelines across all B2B touchpoints.
• Support B2B loyalty programs and help disseminate promotional content and assets across relevant channels.

Analytics & Market Research

• Track and analyze POSM performance and promotional effectiveness; report on ROI and provide recommendations for future optimizations.
• Conduct ongoing market research and competitive analysis to uncover trends and source innovative POSM and activation ideas.
• Visit retail and trade environments monthly to gather local market insights that inform campaign adjustments and long-term strategy.

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Sales, Product, Brand, and Compliance teams to coordinate messaging and execution of integrated B2B campaigns.
• Provide consistent feedback from the field to internal teams to improve programs, materials, and operational efficiency.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business Administration, or a related field.
• 2–5 years of experience in B2B marketing, trade/field marketing, or B2B channel marketing—ideally within a retail or consumer products environment.
• Proven experience managing POSM strategy, production, and vendor coordination (including international vendors and timelines).
• Fluency in Chinese (Mandarin is a strong asset but not required).
• Excellent organizational skills, high attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple concurrent projects.
• Strong project management and communication skills, with a solutions-oriented mindset.
• Proficiency in tools such as Asana, Microsoft Office Suite, NetSuite, and familiarity with AI tools are assets.
• Willingness to travel up to 10% across Canada for in-market visits and activations (when required).
