ABOUT LODESTAR DIGITAL
Lodestar Digital is the digital agency division of Lodestar Media. We work with businesses across BC on everything from paid search and social to SEO, programmatic, CTV, content, and web. We also support Lodestar Media brands including Vancouver Is Awesome, Business in Vancouver, North Shore News, and Pique Newsmagazine as a central team. We are unique in that we get to be both an internal agency and one with our own clients.
We are building out Lodestar Digital as a dedicated agency division, and this role is part of that next stage of growth. You will step into a small established book of business and beyond that, we need someone who genuinely enjoys prospecting, meeting business owners, figuring out what they need, and winning the work.
THE ROLE
We are looking for someone who is sharp, self-motivated, and genuinely excited about digital marketing. You will own the full new-business cycle: identifying the right prospects, building relationships, and converting opportunities into long-term clients. Our digital strategy team has your back when it comes to proposals, audits, and campaign thinking, but you will be the one opening the doors.
This is not a role for someone who waits to be told who to call.

- Genuine interest in and understanding of digital marketing: you do not need to be a technical expert but you need to care about how it works
- You are energized by finding and winning new business, not intimidated by it
- Strong communicator who can simplify complex ideas and connect them to a client's actual business problems
- Self-directed and organized: you manage your own time and do not wait to be told what to do next
- Comfortable with ambiguity: this is a new role and you will help shape what it looks like
- Familiarity with tools like Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, or any CRM is an asset but not required
