About McAsphalt
 
At McAsphalt, we help build the roads that connect Canada.
Since 1970, McAsphalt has grown into one of Canada's leading suppliers of asphalt products and services, supporting the infrastructure that keeps people, businesses and communities moving.
 
With more than 500 employees and a national network of 26 terminals, we bring together technical expertise, innovative products, specialized transportation and decades of industry experience.
As part of the global Colas Group, we combine the strength of an international organization with the expertise and relationships of a proudly Canadian business.
Our work is technical. Our impact is everywhere. And behind it all are the people, ideas and innovations that make McAsphalt a leader in our industry.
 
We're looking for a creative storyteller who can help bring that story to life.
 
The Opportunity
 
McAsphalt is seeking a talented and creative Content Marketing Specialist to join our national Marketing & Communications team.
This is an opportunity for a skilled content creator who loves great writing, thoughtful design and bringing ideas to life across digital and traditional channels.

From developing digital campaigns and website content to creating marketing materials, employee communications and brand storytelling, your work will help shape how McAsphalt is seen, understood and experienced across Canada.
 
We're looking for someone who brings more than technical skills. You have creative instincts, strong attention to detail and the confidence to take a brief from concept to completion. You understand that effective content needs to do more than look good. It needs to connect with its audience, reinforce the brand and deliver a clear message.
If you enjoy variety, take pride in producing exceptional work and want to contribute to a brand with national reach, we'd love to see what you can bring to our team.
