Craving a challenging and rewarding career in a place you actually love? Perfect. Demetres was founded in 1989, now with 11 dessert restaurant locations across the Greater Toronto Area. We are innovators in the field, and for decades we have set the very definition of dessert restaurant. Our greatest years are yet to come, and we're looking for the best people to take us there. We've recently also opened up Scooped by Demetres - our ice cream only experience, and we've launched our ice creams into grocery stores!

About The Role:

Working at our corporate head office R&D facility, you'll play a pivotal role in our marketing initiatives.

Your canvas is vast-social media platforms, our websites, and beyond. You'll craft mouth-watering stories, design irresistible visuals, and develop marketing campaigns.

We're looking for someone who's not just passionate about desserts, but who also understands the sweet spot of marketing and storytelling. Whether it's highlighting the latest flavour launch from Scooped, sharing the magic behind the scenes of Demetres Manufactory, or launching the newest ice cream pint into the homes of our customers, your work will be an integral part of our growth and presence in the dessert industry.
