Who we are

We're a Kelowna based Third Party Administrator/Payor (TPA/TPP) improving the health benefits experience for employers, insurers and, well, everybody! Our team leverages digital-focused strategies to provide members with fast, easy and thoughtful benefits experiences. To put it simply, we provide group benefits plans, but we're a technology company first. Our team embraces autonomy, complexity and a connection between effort and reward as three qualities that foster a truly satisfying career and strive to separate ourselves from the corporate herd.

What we're looking for

We're looking for a creative, organized and detail-oriented Junior Marketing Coordinator to support the execution of Simply Benefits' marketing strategy. In this role, you'll create engaging content, coordinate marketing activities, manage digital channels, maintain marketing assets and help deliver consistent brand experience across external and internal communications. You'll work collaboratively across the organization to support initiatives that educate, engage and deliver value to advisors, administrators and plan members.

Who you are

You are a creative and organized marketing professional who enjoys turning ideas and information into clear, engaging content. You are comfortable writing and editing blogs, social media posts, website content, presentations, and other marketing materials while maintaining a consistent brand voice. You can manage multiple content deadlines, keep calendars and marketing assets organized, and pay close attention to accuracy and detail. You are interested in digital marketing, social media, SEO, research, and content performance, and you enjoy finding ways to improve engagement. You work well with others, take initiative, and are willing to support a variety of marketing campaigns, webinars, events, and internal communication projects.

What you'll do

Create, write, edit, and publish weekly blog content, including research, formatting, and website uploads.

Manage the social media content calendar across LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and X by planning, creating, scheduling, and publishing engaging content, including captions, graphics, carousels, and short-form videos.

Repurpose blogs, webinars, educational resources, newsletters, and other marketing content into multiple formats to maximize reach and engagement across digital channels.

Maintain the marketing content calendar to support campaign planning and ensure a consistent flow of content across all marketing channels.

Conduct market, industry, competitor, and keyword research while identifying relevant awareness days, seasonal opportunities, and trending topics to support the content calendar and overall marketing strategy.

Assist with website content updates, perform routine website content audits, identify opportunities to refresh outdated content, and support SEO best practices through content optimization.

Support the maintenance and updating of marketing materials using established brand templates and brand guidelines.

Review and proofread marketing materials to ensure accuracy, consistency, and adherence to brand and editorial standards.

Coordinate the collection, organization, and management of marketing assets, ensuring files are up to date, well organized, and easily accessible across the organization.

Maintain and organize marketing databases, contact lists, campaign trackers, monthly CSV files, and other marketing documentation to support marketing initiatives and communications.

Monitor content performance across digital channels, prepare monthly reports, and provide recommendations to improve engagement and campaign effectiveness.

Support the development of customer success stories, case studies, and testimonials by collaborating with internal teams, advisors, and administrators.

Monitor and respond to online reviews while supporting review generation initiatives to encourage customer feedback and strengthen Simply Benefits' online reputation.

Assist with the planning, coordination, and promotion of webinars and events by preparing marketing materials, presentation assets, promotional content, signage, tent cards, and other event collateral.

Support internal communications by assisting with the creation and formatting of presentation slides, bulletin board content, and other internal communication materials.

Collaborate with internal teams to support marketing initiatives, content development, and campaign execution.

Assist with additional marketing initiatives, campaigns, and projects as required.

What you need

Post-secondary education in marketing, communications, business, public relations or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
