VP Marketing

About Chexy
At Chexy, we're building modern financial tools for Canadians, starting with their largest expenses. We turned rent, mortgages, tuition, insurance and other big bills into opportunities to earn rewards, improve cash flow and get more from money they already have to spend.

We're the first platform in Canada that lets people pay nearly any bill with a credit card while unlocking cashback, points and financial flexibility. Billions in payments move through Chexy, our customer base is growing fast, and we've just relaunched the brand. Over the next 12 months we launch several new products, starting with our first credit card in Q1 2027.

We're backed by Khosla Ventures, Crossbeam Venture Partners, Venrex and we partner with Aeroplan and other leading Canadian financial and telecom brands.

About the role
Chexy is hiring a  VP Marketing  to own how Canadians come to know, try and stick with Chexy. You report to the CEO, sit on the leadership team, and own the consumer growth and brand number: acquisition, activation, retention and the brand's place in the market. You take a newly relaunched brand and a pipeline of product launches, including our first credit card in Q1 2027, and turn them into growth.

This is a hands‑on senior leadership role in a small company. You set the consumer marketing plan, the budget and the hiring plan behind it, and you build and lead a team of senior individual contributors and the AI agent stack they run on. No layers of managers, no junior staff, no large agency roster. Agents do the production and analysis.

Your team does the judgment, taste and strategy. You own the outcome.

We need someone who can scale channels, lead senior ICs, own the numbers and the brand's place in the market, and still get their hands dirty testing growth hacks and ideas no Canadian fintech has tried.

We care about  taste, speed and results .
