Build Work That People Talk About.
At Sundae Creative, we craft the brand narratives, campaigns, conversations, and experiences that shape culture.
We’re a team of strategists, storytellers, publicists, influencer marketers, event producers, social thinkers, and creatives who believe the best ideas come from curious people who aren’t afraid to challenge convention.
As one of Canada’s fastest-growing brand communications agencies, we partner with leading brands across beauty, fashion, lifestyle, wellness, and consumer sectors. From public relations and influencer marketing to social storytelling, events, and experiential, our teams work across disciplines to create culturally relevant, insight-driven work that earns attention and drives influence.
With offices in Montreal and Toronto, Sundae Creative is ambitious, collaborative, and independently led. As part of the Dulcedo Group, we also benefit from shared expertise, resources, and opportunities that give our teams even more room to grow and do exceptional work.
We move fast, think big, and value curiosity over ego, initiative over titles, and people who aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves.
At Sundae, we believe growth comes from experience, not just observation.
What You’ll Own as a Social Media Specialist
Lead your client relationships.
Own day-to-day client communication, lead meetings, present ideas and strategic recommendations, navigate feedback, and confidently articulate and defend the thinking behind your work. You’ll act as a trusted partner to your clients without relying on someone more senior to lead the conversation.
Develop and execute social strategies.
Build social strategies for your assigned accounts and translate them into clear platform priorities, content opportunities, campaigns, and recommendations grounded in brand objectives, audience behaviour, and culture.
Create content that feels native.
Take ideas from concept to execution, including developing concepts, shooting content, editing short-form video, and creating social-first assets designed for the platforms they live on.
Know the platforms inside out.
Bring a deep understanding of Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, and emerging platforms, including algorithms, audience behaviours, formats, performance signals, and what makes content work differently across each one.
Bring ideas before you’re asked.
Proactively identify opportunities within existing client mandates, challenge current approaches, and consistently recommend ways to make the work stronger, more relevant, and more effective.
Own your accounts from planning to delivery.
Manage editorial calendars, timelines, approvals, deliverables, and day-to-day workflows across multiple accounts, ensuring work stays organized, polished, and moving forward.
Turn performance into action.
Analyze social performance, identify meaningful insights, and translate learnings into clear recommendations for what to continue, change, test, or do differently.

3-5 years of relevant social media experience, ideally in an agency or multi-client environment, with experience independently managing accounts from strategy through execution.

You’re confident leading client meetings, presenting and defending strategic recommendations, navigating feedback, and building trusted relationships without relying on someone more senior to manage the conversation.

Education:
A degree or diploma in Communications, Marketing, Social Media, or a related field is an asset, but we’re equally interested in candidates with strong relevant experience and demonstrated social expertise.
