About Thrive

We"re one of North America\'s top full-funnel marketing agencies. At Thrive, we evolve our services by continually building and growing as we learn and adapt to our clients needs and the world around us. We prioritize taking frequent steps back to examine our methods, to see what\'s working and what\'s not, so that we can continue to hone our expertise. Our mission is to grow your favourite companies in a sustainable way, and as a result, we have developed a deep expertise in performance marketing, brand marketing, digital design, and data and measurement - having managed over $4 Billion USD in advertising spend for more than a decade. You may not realize it, but you\'ve probably seen some of our work with startups, Fortune 500 companies, and companies of all sizes in between (Uber, Asana, Masterclass, Snapchat, Zoom, Rivian - to name a few!).

Our culture is centered around creativity, innovation, problem-solving, empathetic understanding and continual learning. People are challenged in a way that helps them continue to achieve career growth and goals, and that also lives in harmony with being respectful of each person\'s boundaries. It\'s an environment where we encourage each team member to experiment, and know that this doesn\'t always have to lead to a successful output - but the journey there helps develop critical skills, experiences and lenses to implement in our work now and in the future. We curate playfulness in our work, and create an environment where each person knows they can be their uniquely awesome selves at Thrive.

The Role

Joining the Performance department (performance marketing) as our Performance Strategist, you\'ll ensure Thrive operates at peak performance by establishing efficient processes, implementing best practices, and fostering growth within your team in both technical and strategic areas. Your mission will be to develop and execute project growth initiatives, lead a high-performing team, and uphold our company philosophy. You\'ll focus on setting your team up for success by enhancing the systems used to build, maintain, and grow client relationships through continuous improvement of philosophies, programs, policies, and processes.

Working Within Our Values : At Thrive, we value teamwork and a no politics culture.

  • Client : Organizing and leading high-impact client relationship drivers, such as client onboards and business reviews, and using the latest and most cutting-edge methods and tools available to achieve successful outcomes.
  • Example : You lead strategic conversations with small to mid-sized clients 1 : 1, proactively engaging in and consistently monitoring client sentiment to ensure we\'re addressing any challenges and opportunities.
