Associate, New Verticals Partnerships

Location:   Remote Canada (Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal preferred)

Contract Duration:  Through December 2025

Contract Type:   T4 through Staffing Supplier

Pay Rate:   $55 - $65 CAD/hr

 

Our New Verticals business is still in its infancy and it’s an exciting time to join us if you want to be part of helping us build a cutting-edge retail e-commerce platform. This is a unique opportunity for you to build and own a new space in Canada. We are looking for an enterprising leader who can thrive in a fast paced, often ambiguous environment, while still being able to manage clients and prioritize across multiple projects. This role is remote, but would prefer candidates located in Toronto, Vancouver or Montreal. 

 

You will own and support relationships with our most strategic partners and will be directly responsible for their success. No two days are the same; you could be: 

- supporting the creation of leading business reviews with your partner’s senior leadership, 

- working with internal product teams to ensure we’re prioritizing the right features for our merchants, dashers & customers, 

- project managing the roll out of new launches, particularly store expansions across the country, 

- designing marketing and promotional campaigns for new, returning or churned customers, 

- analyzing operational metrics to identify trends and insights to advise a merchant, cross-functional partners, or both 

- getting into the field to do a test delivery, 

- gathering insights on consumer behavior and shopping patterns, or leading special projects to drive operational efficiency for your partners working with internal product teams to ensure we’re prioritizing the right features for our merchants, dashers & customers

 

 

We’re excited about you because you… 

  • Have 1-3 years of high-impact experience preferably in a client-management role (examples include consulting, banking, account management, or marketing). 
  • Have strong analytical skills (Excel, GoogleSheets, SQL) with the ability to navigate through large datasets to derive core business insights that form your decision-making 
  • Are a confident communicator with the ability to steer conversations (including difficult ones) and present business insights in a client-facing forum 
  • Have a proven ability to prioritize multiple projects, manage and meet deadlines and hit goals 
  • Have an ownership mentality: you are excited to dive into problems (small or big) and are always looking for ways to improve 
  • Are a team player with the willingness to collaborate with cross-functional partners to experiment, potentially fail and quickly pivot to try new initiatives 
  • Need to know how things work and are not afraid to get under the hood; you’re not satisfied with a status quo answer that seems broken or inefficient 
  • Are a thoughtful, structured problem solver, who can breakdown and isolate key drivers 
  • Have a track record of ‘building stuff’; you like to propose, experiment and implement ideas to make processes more efficient. We’re writing the playbook for New Verticals, and you’re a co-author. 

 

Nice to haves: 

  • High-growth startup experience 
  • Experience in the convenience, grocery or alcohol industry 
  • Working knowledge of SQL, Salesforce, Tableau
  • Bilingual (English and French)
