As the classic ad saying goes, “Nobody ever bored anyone into buying anything.” And we couldn’t agree more. That’s why we don’t just ‘do ads’. We focus on building our clients’ long-term brand and financial equity.
We see creativity as a powerful business tool for our clients – one of the last legal means of gaining an unfair advantage over competitors. We live this creative philosophy for all of our clients.
We work hard to stay small, which means we are deliberately low on bureaucracy and deliberately high on collaboration, with a passion for solving complex problems, strategically and creatively.
We have one of the strongest advertising and branding teams in Canada. And not accidentally, they include some of the nicest people you’re likely going to find anywhere. They care about each other and about the work. And here at the most easterly point in North America, in one of the most creative places in Canada, we take that to heart.
If this sounds like the kind of place you’d like to work, we’d love for you to drop us a line at careers@targetmarketing.ca and say hello. If something comes up that’s a fit, we’ll be in touch.
Like coming up with big ideas as much as you like winning awards?
Then we might be the right fit. We’re looking for an intermediate/Senior Art Director who can come up with big, campaignable ideas. The sort of ideas that will land us on the podium. And in the news. As an Art Director, you should be proficient in Adobe Creative Suite, play well with others, and have solid presenting skills. If you have a good eye for design — that’s a bonus. But it’s not just all trophies, accolades, and free lunches. it’s about working closely with our award-winning creative and digital teams on thought-provoking projects; projects you can fill up your portfolio to the brim with.
What’s in it for you? A competitive salary with ample opportunities to create. There’s plenty of perks too. Like education opportunities to help refine your craft. A fitness allowance to help keep your work-life balance, well, balanced. Downtown St. John’s at your doorstep, along with the occasional iceberg. You can also have your work recognized internationally at award shows like The Webbys, Applied Arts, Strategy Magazine’s Small Agency of the Year, or even Cannes. Did we mention the beer fridge? It’s well-stocked.
After 40 years in the industry, our philosophy remains the same: Hire the best people. Select the best clients. Do the best work. That’s it. Feel like we’re the right fit for you? Send your portfolio to careers@targetmarketing.ca.
We’re looking for a Front-End Developer that’s proficient in modern web methodologies: HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. You should also be familiar with build tools like CSS preprocessors, Git and Node.js. PHP and SQL would be nice too.
You work well under pressure, play well with others, and most importantly, you have a knack for creative problem solving. You always deliver on time. And your attention to detail is unrivalled.
