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 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.
Why did you get into advertising?
I suspect it wasn’t a passion for banner ads. Or helping a big 5 bank get a little bigger. Well, we don’t sell insurance, we sell icebergs. We shoot stunning landscapes. Lighthouses that loom over foggy shorelines. Breaching whales crashing into the steel blue Atlantic.
We’re looking for art directors to join us in St John’s, Newfoundland.
Maybe it’s not where you expected to find yourself. But isn’t that how all great adventures begin?

Creatives Wanted for Canada’s Inaugural Small Agency of the Year.
Target, Canada’s Inaugural Small Agency of the Year, is looking for Creatives. Senior Art Directors, established Designers, and seasoned Creative Directors — we’re talking to you.
We’re looking for people who love making their Moms proud, just as much as they love making incredible ideas come to life and winning shiny trophies. Something we have plenty of, by the way, London International Awards to Gold Lions. In fact, we’re just one of 16 agencies in Canada to win a Gold Lion.
Uniquely positioned in St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador — widely known as the most creative city in Canada — we proudly consider ourselves outsiders from typical ad agencies. Being independently owned and operated, we’re about as far from a multinational and bureaucracy as you can get. We’re a tight family of strategists, writers, designers, producers, innovators, planners, and creative problem solvers. We strongly believe that creative is not a department on a business card – it’s a way of seeing the world.
So, if you’d like to see the world our way, drop us a line at careers@targetmarketing.ca. We’d love to chat.
We’re looking for a Digital Production Artist that loves to put their creative take on smart digital advertising ads and showcase it to the world. We’re looking for someone that thrives under pressure, loves to juggle multiple projects and ideally flex those digital programming muscles. Proficient in modern web methodologies such as HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript will get you far in this position. Attention to detail is second nature? Play well with others? This might be your next gig.
What’s in it for you? Ample opportunities to create industry-leading digital experiences. And plenty of perks. Like education opportunities to help refine your craft. A fitness allowance to help keep your work-life balance, well, balanced. There might even be the chance to have your work recognized internationally at award shows like The Webbys, Applied Arts, Communication Arts, or Cannes.
Truth to be told, we’ve been at this for a while. So, our philosophy is simple: Hire the best people. Select the best clients. Do the best work. If you feel like we’re the right fit for you, drop us a line at careers@targetmarketing.ca.
