ABOUT CATALYST AGENTS

We are a boutique marketing agency located in Gastown, Vancouver, where our team delivers on world-class integrated campaigns every day. Consulting for recognized clients such as Concord Pacific, SkinCeuticals, L’Oreal, Max Mara and more, Catalyst Agents is a pioneer in the Chinese digital marketing space. We pride ourselves on responsible and reliable service that has resulted in our growing client list of internationally recognized brands over the past decade. Service isn’t our only winning ingredient. We are also constantly rethinking how we market and promote our clients to do more for their bottom line. Yes — we treat their bottom line like it’s ours. After all, the more successful they are, the more opportunities we get in the long term. We think win-win. Not transactional. We will tell a client not to spend their money if it won’t benefit them.

As for what you can expect from us as a member of our team: we value your ideas. We don’t just want you to raise your hand. You get to brainstorm, lead and execute from any position in the company as long as you are willing to step up to the plate. We operate with an “the boss isn’t always right” attitude.

If you share our values of always being on time, on budget, maximizing the output of your team, and putting our clients first, then please apply. If not, we wish you the best of luck elsewhere.ABOUT THE ROLE
