Job description

Job Title: AI Activation Strat egist (Client Management / Non-Engineering)

Location: Office-first

At Vendasta, we're leading the AI revolution from right here in Saskatoon-and beyond. We work together to empower our partners and customers through our AI-powered customer acquisition and engagement platform to help them get more customers-and keep them. We're proud to share that Vendasta has officially been named one of Canada's Most Admired Corporate Cultures for 2025!

About the Job

The mission of the AI Activation Strategist is to act as the primary architect and partner for clients, transforming business needs into functional AI-driven digital marketing solutions within the Vendasta ecosystem. The incumbent of this role demonstrates a full-stack service mindset, deep AI fluency, and consultative communication skills, and will be responsible for end-to-end client scoping, workflow validation and setup, and post-delivery AI optimization. The successful candidate will also leverage AI technologies to streamline execution, identify insights, and drive innovation across their responsibilities.

Your Impact

As a AI Activation Strategist, you'll work with clients, Senior Specialists, and AI Workflow Architects to:

• Consult with clients to deeply understand their business objectives and identify opportunities for AI-driven digital marketing integration
• Act as the single point of contact for clients, eliminating internal hand-offs between departments
• Design tailored AI solutions based on available Vendasta AI technologies (e.g., Rep AI, Content AI) to execute digital marketing strategies
• Set up and fine-tune AI tools behind the scenes so they run smoothly for the client
• Demo and showcase the finished AI solution to the client for final approval
• Train clients on the solution to ensure self-sufficiency and long-term adoption
• Partner with Senior Specialists or AI Workflow Architects on more complex, technical customizations
• Check in on performance over time and make adjustments to keep results strong

What You Bring to the Table

The ideal candidate is a strong communicator who can translate complex ideas into clear, practical value for small business clients. Hands-on experience in digital marketing is a must-have requirement, as digital marketing and AI are deeply connected and you will be using AI tools directly to execute digital marketing strategies. You're comfortable owning a client relationship end-to-end—from initial scoping conversations through training and ongoing support—and you bring a consultative, service-first mindset to everything you do. You have 2+ years of experience in Client Success, Implementation, Technical Consulting, or a related field, preferably within a SaaS or technology environment. AI comfort is expected—you should be excited to work with AI tools day-to-day—but deep technical expertise isn't required; we'll train you on the specifics. A Bachelor's degree in Business, Communications, Information Technology, or a related field is preferred.
