Position: Head of Marketing
Department: Executive Leadership
Location: Toronto, Canada

About AARUNI Inc.
AARUNI Inc. is an independent advisory firm focused on ethics, corporate governance, accountability, and organizational strategy.
Operating at the intersection of ethics, governance, and institutional responsibility, AARUNI aims to help organizations navigate complex challenges and build stronger, more accountable systems.
As AARUNI continues to develop its presence in Canada and internationally, we are seeking an exceptional marketing leader to shape our brand, strengthen our market positioning, and establish a sustainable marketing strategy for the next stage of growth.
The Opportunity
The Head of Marketing will be responsible for developing and executing AARUNI's overarching marketing strategy.
This is an executive-level opportunity for an experienced marketing professional who understands how to build brands, influence markets, establish institutional credibility, and translate strategic vision into measurable business outcomes.
We are not simply looking for someone to manage social media accounts or coordinate advertising campaigns. We are looking for a strategic thinker capable of fundamentally advancing how AARUNI positions itself in the marketplace.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and lead AARUNI's overall marketing and brand strategy.
- Establish a distinctive market position within ethics consulting, corporate governance, and compliance advisory.
- Identify new markets, audiences, strategic partnerships, and business development opportunities.
- Develop integrated marketing strategies across digital platforms, professional networks, thought leadership, and institutional channels.
- Strengthen AARUNI's brand recognition and credibility among senior executives, board members, compliance professionals, and organizational decision-makers.
- Oversee content strategy, brand communications, campaign development, and marketing performance.
- Identify innovative approaches to generating qualified business opportunities and expanding AARUNI's international presence.
- Establish measurable marketing objectives and evaluate performance against strategic outcomes.
- Advise executive leadership on emerging marketing opportunities, competitive positioning, and long-term brand development.
Mandatory Candidate Requirements
Candidates must meet all of the following requirements:
- Canadian Citizenship: Must be a Canadian citizen.
- Professional Experience: Minimum of 20 years of professional experience in marketing, brand strategy, marketing leadership, or related disciplines.
- Education: A master's degree in Marketing, Business Administration (MBA), Strategic Management, or a closely related discipline is required. A PhD in a relevant field is considered an asset.
Mandatory Strategic Marketing Proposal - Include in Your Résumé
Candidates must include a dedicated section in their résumé outlining three original ideas to take AARUNI Inc.'s marketing to the next level.
Each of the three ideas must briefly address:
- The Opportunity: What specific opportunity have you identified for AARUNI?
- The Strategy: How would you approach and implement your proposed initiative?
- Expected Impact: How would your idea improve brand recognition, market positioning, audience engagement, or business development?
We are particularly interested in original thinking, commercial awareness, strategic sophistication, and an understanding of AARUNI's position within the ethics and corporate governance advisory landscape.
Generic recommendations, such as simply increasing social media activity or publishing more content, will not be sufficient.
Applications that do not include all three original marketing ideas directly in the résumé will not be considered.
What We Are Looking For
The ideal candidate:
- Thinks beyond conventional marketing practices.
- Understands the relationship between reputation, credibility, and institutional trust.
- Can build a distinctive brand in a competitive professional services market.
- Demonstrates exceptional strategic and analytical judgment.
- Understands both Canadian and international markets.
- Can communicate complex ideas in a compelling and accessible manner.
- Values integrity, accountability, and professional excellence.
- Lives and upholds our values: Trust, Teamwork, and Accountability.
