Job description

Ready to amplify the buzz? We’re looking for a data-driven Digital Marketer to architect our content distribution engine and share our story with the world.

Changing the world—one fruit fly at a time.

We’ve developed a novel insect-based expression platform to enable bio-products across humanity’s most critical verticals.

We’re unleashing the next biorevolution.

At Future Fields, we are continually learning and evolving. We know we don’t have all the answers, but we try to ask all the questions. We believe in “failing forward” and leveraging our mistakes to help us grow. We never want our team to feel constrained by the status quo and we don’t judge ideas based on where they come from. We actively work to foster a culture of collaboration, innovation and psychological safety through transparency, structure, and open communication. We know it sounds cliché, but every employee really is a valued and equal member of the Future Fields team.

Come find your purpose with Future Fields.

We are a rapidly growing venture-backed startup (with support from awesome investors including Bee Partners, Y Combinator, BDC Climate Tech, R7 Partners, Toyota Ventures and Amplify Capital). We’ve even had a shoutout from Ironman himself! Joining our team now means you’ll have the opportunity to shape our culture and products, to lead others, and to influence the direction of our company. Perhaps most importantly, you’ll be joining a team that is genuinely energized by this work and the meaningful potential of biotech to change the world.

About the role

Reporting to the Marketing Lead, the Digital Marketer will own the execution and optimization of our digital campaigns to drive engagement and inbound growth. Acting as a trusted driver, you will collaborate closely with the Marketing Associate and Lead to strategize campaigns and design assets, tapping into R&D expertise when needed to accurately visualize our science.This role combines creativity with rigorous data analysis to ensure our message reaches the right technical audience.

This role will own:

• Executing marketing campaigns (e.g., case study distribution, email campaigns, social media) that drive clicks, downloads, and engagement with Future Fields content.
• Creating visual assets, writing copy, and managing the scheduling of campaigns in HubSpot.
• Analyzing marketing campaign data to improve performance and shape future creative directions.
• Analyzing website and HubSpot metrics to identify opportunities and bottlenecks in our lead generation activities.
• Maintaining and owning the MQL labelling, tracking, and record‑keeping process in our CRM
• Owning the outcome of campaigns by seeing them through to conclusion and ensuring they deliver real value

This role will assist by:

• Supporting the design of graphics, visual assets, and web pages for the Sales & Marketing team.
• Collaborating with the Marketing Associate and Lead on strategic planning (personas, key messages, branding).
• Supporting Business Development with sales enablement collateral creation.
• Maintaining and organizing HubSpot CRM data to ensure transparency and speed.

This role requires a blend of creative execution and technical analysis. We are looking for a marketer with a background in digital campaigns (specifically email and social), proficiency in HubSpot (or equivalent), and a knack for graphic design. You are an independent worker who can troubleshoot minor problems and take ownership of projects with guidance. You possess strong written communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams to turn technical concepts into compelling stories.

About you

You are a data‑minded storyteller who loves to get into the weeds of a campaign. You feel just as comfortable designing a sharp visual asset as you do analyzing open rates and setting up workflows in HubSpot. You are detailed and proactive—the kind of person who spots a gap in data tracking and fixes it because you know accurate data drives better decisions. You thrive in a fast‑paced environment where priorities can shift, utilizing your strong planning skills to keep projects on track while remaining flexible enough to adapt. You are eager to take ownership of your channels, moving beyond simple execution to turn bold ideas into measurable growth.

Must‑haves

• Experience in conducting email marketing campaigns via HubSpot or equivalent content/campaign management tools.
• Experience in analyzing campaign performance data and/or website insights and reporting on key findings.
• Adept at managing and updating LinkedIn.
• Adept at Google Suite, especially Google Docs, Sheets, Slides.
• Experience designing graphics with Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, or equivalent.
• Strong written communication skills for email campaigns and newsletters.
• Proven ability to collaborate effectively with cross‑functional teams.

Bonus points

• Cross‑functional proficiency of HubSpot or equivalent CRM in collaboration with Sales/BD teams.
• A working knowledge of biological sciences (we are a biotech company marketing to a technical audience).
• Experience with digital paid advertising platforms (e.g., Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, paid e‑blasts).

FAQs

Where is Future Fields located?

Our headquarters and production facility are located in downtown Edmonton, Alberta, in a renovated historic warehouse. From the exposed brick to our summer patio - it’s not your average lab space. It is central, close to transit and bike lanes, and walking distance to some of the city’s best coffee shops, restaurants and Edmonton’s incredible river valley.

I don’t live in Edmonton. Why would I want to relocate there?

Because it’s great! Edmonton is a young, vibrant city that punches way above its weight. We are one of Canada’s sunniest cities and offer an unmatched quality of life with a low cost of living. We’re home to North America’s largest urban parkland (the River Valley is a playground for cyclists and runners), a festival scene that runs year‑round, a rapidly growing tech and biotech ecosystem, and we’re exploding with award‑winning independent restaurants. It’s a place where you can build a career and a life - without the big‑city price tag.

Any other perks?

Many! Some include: comprehensive health, dental and vision benefits; flexible paid time off policy; and the office is always stocked with snacks and all the coffee you can drink.

Will I like working for a startup?

Great question. Startup life is definitely not for everyone. We move quickly. Projects and priorities shift fast. There is a lot of ambiguity and uncertainty at times and we’re not immune to the growing pains of a rapidly scaling startup. The risk is high, but so is the reward. We promise you will never get bored. You will have fun and learn a lot. You will grow personally and professionally in ways you never imagined (alongside our company). You will be part of something much bigger than yourself and contribute directly to the mission of a team who cares deeply about changing the world for the better. Oh, and equity!
