This is an exceptional opportunity to join a high-performing, respected team within one of the most advanced organizations in the world—working in Toronto alongside some of the brightest minds in tech.

🚀 What You’ll Do

As a Sales Specialist Manager, you’ll:

• Act as a trusted sales engineer and solution strategist, partnering with account executives to support enterprise clients across industries (finance, CPG, entertainment, retail, and more).
• Design and deliver consultative presentations and demos that connect marketing technology capabilities with real-world business outcomes.
• Translate complex technical concepts into accessible narratives for C-suite and senior marketing decision-makers.
• Advise on cross-product integration — connecting ad tech, analytics, and cloud-based solutions to maximize value across a customer’s martech stack.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with global product and sales enablement teams to ensure client needs are met through best-in-class strategy and technical guidance.
• Leverage data and analytics (Campaign Manager 360, Google Ads, Google Marketing Platform, data warehouses, and clean rooms) to inform recommendations and highlight ROI opportunities.
• Support pre-sales discovery and solutioning, working alongside sales to architect custom approaches for strategic customers.
• Contribute to knowledge sharing and process improvement, acting as a go-to resource for your peers and the sales organization.

Who You Are

• A consultative storyteller who can simplify the complex and build trust quickly with executive-level audiences.
• Skilled at connecting business strategy and technology, and comfortable translating data-driven insights into strategic recommendations.
• Technically conversant, but not a coder — you understand marketing analytics, ad technology, tag management, and data flows across cloud platforms.
• Energized by collaboration, continuous learning, and solving diverse client challenges in a fast-moving, matrixed organization.
• Self-motivated and autonomous — able to thrive in a hybrid setup and manage cross-border relationships effectively.

💡 What You Bring

✅ Professional Background

• 6–10+ years in enterprise sales, pre-sales, or solutions consulting, ideally within ad tech, martech, or cloud/SaaS environments.
• Prior experience in sales enablement, partner strategy, or sales engineering supporting complex technology solutions.
• Exposure to large holding-company agencies (WPP, Omnicom, IPG, Publicis, Dentsu, Havas) or consultancies a strong plus.
• Backgrounds in enterprise tech (e.g., Google, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, Salesforce, Adobe, Oracle, or similar) are especially valued.

✅ Technical Acumen

• Understanding of digital media, programmatic advertising, and analytics platforms (Google Ads, Campaign Manager 360, Display & Video 360, Analytics 360, or comparable tools).
• Awareness of data pipelines, clean rooms, and cloud integrations (Google Cloud, BigQuery, data warehouses).
• Experience in using insights from data to shape marketing or sales strategies.
• Advanced proficiency with tools such as Google Sheets/Excel, data visualization platforms (e.g., Looker, Tableau), or CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce).

✅ Soft Skills

• Exceptional communication and presentation skills — comfortable engaging with C-suite executives.
• Curious, analytical, and adaptable mindset with a strong bias toward learning.
• Strong organizational awareness: able to navigate large, matrixed environments gracefully.

🌟 Why You’ll Love It

• Work alongside industry-leading teams at a globally admired technology company.
• Contribute directly to digital innovation and customer success at enterprise scale.
• Gain access to cutting-edge products, data, and insights shaping the future of advertising and business strategy.
• Enjoy a collaborative, inclusive culture where curiosity, creativity, and initiative are valued.
• Competitive compensation with potential for extension and long-term career growth opportunities within the global tech ecosystem.
