Job Description
WHO WE ARE
Touché! has been growing since 1995. We are a media agency powered by Omnicom Media Group, a world leader in marketing communications. Our creativity and passion have enabled us to obtain large national accounts; numerous provincial, national, and global awards; and the title of agency of the year in Canada in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2020.
We are continually reinventing ourselves. As media becomes more complex, so does our realm of expertise. We are continually improving our strategy and planning of traditional, digital, and social media. We support our clients in all their media needs, from search engine marketing (SEM/SEO), business intelligence, programming, and distribution.
Touché! has refused to become a "big company," choosing instead to be a "big start-up." Innovation, collaboration, and passion are our core values, and we care about our employees. We are looking to expand our passionate team. Touché! is the strength of a network, the agility of a start-up.
