DESCRIPTION

Job Role: Sr. Marketing Manager

Location: Toronto, Canada (Hybrid)

Who we are

Imagine what even the world's finest organizations could achieve if all of their employees were coached to be their absolute best.

At Ezra, we're on a mission to do just that. We believe through coaching, people get to know themselves. Their goals. Weaknesses. Hang-ups. And once they know all that, they can build on the good stuff and work on the rest.

This mindset applies not only to our clients, but is manifested in our own Ezra family. We believe we are changing people's lives. We believe a happy team is a productive team. We want our people to care and be proud of what they do. We also practice what we preach - every member of our teams gets to experience the superpower that is coaching for themselves, amongst some other pretty incredible perks.

Ezra is the fastest growing global virtual coaching company, supporting some of the world's leading companies. If all of this resonates, Ezra just might be the place for you.
