We are looking for a dynamic, outgoing individual to join our marketing team. Ideally, you are creative, highly motivated, and possess outstanding communication skills. You are a real “people person” and aren’t afraid to pick up a phone or send out an email to follow up on a lead.

Format.com is based in Toronto and is focused on developing online products that improve people's lives. Every day, we create solutions for creative professionals while growing a sustainable company that fosters awesome office culture. Format is our first product: an online portfolio platform that enables anyone to professionally showcase their body of work to clients, employers, patrons, and the world-at-large.

If you are considering this position, you:

• Have excellent verbal and written communication which allows you to clearly and effectively communicate and coordinate.
• Have experience in researching, maintaining and reporting on marketing and advertising campaigns.
• Are well-organized, persistent, and tactful. You don’t take “no” for an answer and “can’t” isn’t in your vocabulary. You are motivated and self-directed. If you don’t know the answer, you are relentless about Googling it until you know the answer better than anyone else.
• Have a minimum of 1-2 years of consumer marketing experience, preferably with a degree in Marketing.
• Are familiar with standard marketing concepts, practices, and procedures, and have a clear understanding of how to leverage these tools.
• Effectively prioritize and handle multiple projects simultaneously. You are equally likely to take initiative as you are to take direction.
• You are intimately familiar with social networks and social media best practices on Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+, Twitter.

• Working closely with the Marketing Manager to execute projects.
• Researching, maintaining, and preparing marketing reports by analyzing and summarizing advertising and statistical data.
