Why You'll Love It Here

Build a vertical from the ground up: Be the driver of our Franchise Development offering. You'll have a direct hand in architecting the strategy, processes, and service standards that will define this division as we scale.

High accountability, high reward: You'll own strategic outcomes for some of Canada's fastest-growing restaurant brands. We operate on a profit-sharing model because the people driving growth should own a piece of the win. When the agency scales and your clients succeed, your earning potential follows.

Elite autonomy, zero micromanagement: You'll have full ownership of your client relationships and a world-class execution team at your back. We provide the resources and vision; you provide the leadership and results.

Accelerated professional mastery: You'll work alongside global specialists in performance marketing, automation, and creative strategy. This is a high-density talent environment where you'll sharpen your strategic thinking, data fluency, and executive presence every day.

A clear path to senior leadership: We're looking for our future Directors and VPs. As the Franchise Development arm grows, so does your opportunity to move into senior leadership roles. We invest in your growth through a strengths-based, engagement-focused and performance-oriented approach.

Remote-First, Flexible PTO: We care about results, not hours or location.

Your Mission & Impact

🏆 Architect the franchise marketing playbook: Partner with leadership to shape our franchise development offering, the strategies that help Canada's top restaurant brands attract and convert qualified franchisee leads. You'll have a seat at the table as we build this vertical from the ground up.

📢 Lead as a strategic advisor: Be the primary strategic partner for C-suite stakeholders, Regional VPs, and Brand Managers. Navigate complex stakeholder landscapes with authority; set expectations, defend recommendations with data, and ensure every marketing dollar drives measurable growth.

🎼 Conduct a high-performance execution engine: Lead a cross-functional squad of global specialists in content, design, performance, and automation. Align technical expertise with client goals, remove roadblocks, and ensure world-class delivery at pace. The team executes; you orchestrate.

📈 Own your portfolio growth & retention: Own the health and expansion of your client portfolio. Translate complex data into insights that shape the future. Identify upsell opportunities and make Hook + Ladder indispensable: an extension of the client's team, not a vendor.

🛠️ Master the pivot: In QSR and franchise development, priorities shift fast. Filter competing requests, re-prioritize on the fly, and keep execution moving without losing strategic focus. Turn chaos into clarity for your team and clients.

This job is for you if:

🗣️ You're fluent in QC French and English, written and spoken, and you can switch between them on client calls without missing a beat if necessary

🍽️ You have 2+ years working with franchise, QSR, or fast-casual restaurant brands.

💼 You have 3+ years in Client Success, Account Management, or a strategic client-facing role at a marketing agency.

🔥 You thrive in fast-paced environments.

🤝 You're a confident communicator who can present to executives and build genuine relationships.

📋 You're comfortable with project management tools and can keep complex workflows on track.

• Have experience with franchise development marketing (lead generation, recruitment campaigns, franchise sales support)


• Are based in Calgary or Alberta


• Speak Spanish: not required, but helpful for internal collaboration


• Have experimented with AI tools for ideation, content generation, or workflow optimization
