Manager Marketing jobs in Canada

Valence has built the first-to-market AI native coaching platform for enterprise, offering personalized, expert, and human-like guidance & support to any leader or employee. At Valence, we're not just talking about the future of work – we're actively shaping it.

From your first interaction with us, you'll notice we're different. By working here you won't just implement solutions for our clients; you'll be helping to architect the future of leadership in the age of generative AI. And we'll be honest – this is not for everyone. But for those with an insatiable desire to work fast on complex, unsolved challenges with some of the best talent in tech, this could be the career-defining opportunity you've been waiting for.

The Role

We’re hiring our first / founding Email Marketing Manager, a hybrid marketer-product expert who will consolidate and lead our email and nudge lifecycle strategy. You’ll craft and execute high-impact campaigns using both classic lifecycle marketing tactics and cutting-edge prompt engineering. Your goal: get users to consistently return to Nadia, our AI coach, through thoughtful, tailored nudges that create value and drive action.

You’ll own our cross-channel email strategy - from 30-day onboarding flows to personalized conversation-triggered nudges - collaborating deeply with product, CS, marketing, and engineering teams. You’ll also experiment with LLMs to generate dynamic, context-aware messaging directly from user conversations.

This is a high-ownership, cross-functional role for someone energized by a fast-moving, ambiguous, first-in-role environment.
