Job description

Marketing Manager, Sports Medicine (Mississauga, CA)

Life Unlimited.

At Smith+Nephew, we design and manufacture technology that takes the limits off living.

This role reports directly to the Director of the Sports Medicine (SPM) Business Unit in Canada. As Marketing Manager, you will serve as the strategic lead for the portfolio, driving top-line revenue growth, profitability, and achieving overall budget targets.

What will you be doing?

You will be responsible for formulating a portfolio strategy and roadmap, creating launch plans and marketing programs to inspire and motivate the sales team to deliver annual revenue targets and portfolio performance.

As the Marketing Manager, you will lead strategic initiatives for your assigned product portfolio, working closely with the Senior Marketing Manager and cross-functional teams to drive revenue growth and market success. You’ll oversee local product launches, develop marketing campaigns, and provide the sales team with tools and insights to boost performance. Your role also includes gathering market intelligence, supporting medical education efforts, and collaborating on RFPs and pricing strategies. Additionally, you'll contribute to sales training programs and support national and regional conferences, ensuring alignment with broader business goals.

What will you need to be successful?

You should have 2–5 years of experience in sales, marketing, or product management within healthcare or medical devices—experience in orthopaedics and a good understanding of the Canadian healthcare system will be especially helpful.

We’re looking for someone who can think strategically and get things done. You should be comfortable analyzing data, solving problems, and adapting quickly to change. Experience with solution-based selling is important, and familiarity with Challenger Selling is a plus. You’ll need to be organized and able to manage multiple projects simultaneously. Strong communication skills—both written and verbal—are essential, especially when working with different teams or sharing ideas. Being proactive, curious, and open to new approaches will be advantageous. Fluency in both English and French is a strong asset. This role involves travel within Canada (about 30%) and is hybrid, with around three days a week in the Mississauga office, depending on operational needs.
