What's it like to work at Adster?

Personal Development

Let’s face it, digital marketing is a new and rapidly growing industry. Even if you’ve completed a Marketing Degree or Bachelor of Commerce, there is very little training if you’re interested in the field of digital marketing. Click here if you want to know how to get a job in digital marketing!

We're in the dream job business. Our experienced team helps nurture developing talent into online marketing rockstars, however, the first 90 days at Adster can be challenging and not everyone makes it. Those that do, will tell you that working here is a truly rewarding experience and that work-life balance isn't a banner we put on our wall as a reminder, we live it every day! We also have an established education and training budget that our team pools and shares for conferences, workshops and PD, that refreshes annually.

We invest in team cohesion through quarterly offsite meetings and yearly retreats, ensuring a workplace that values both professional and personal well-being. If you thrive in a supportive, high-performing environment with a relaxed atmosphere and exciting challenges—where your work is respected by peers and internationally recognized by Google Canada—you’ll feel right at home at Adster!

In the end, we're a small agency, however, growth is NOT stagnant in our 'lil organization. If you continue to put in the work and demonstrate Adster's core values on a daily basis, there's plenty of opportunity to grow both personally & professionally within our little slice of agency heaven.

The Atmosphere

Want work from home? Great! Love to work in the office? That works too! We decided to keep our office, which works great for the occasional client or team meeting, however, those of us who live in Edmonton, enjoy a flexibile schedule of working where they feel they get their best work done. Whether that be from home, at their parents for the week, in the office, or ... from a cruise ship!

The Adster team enjoys casual attire, quarterly team building events, like "Feats of Strength", which usually entails a series of mind bending, muscle tearing events like go-karting, escape rooms, arcade(s) and foosball tournaments. If you haven't heard of The Werewolves of Millers Hollow, you will soon enough.

 

Employee Centric Culture

Adster Creative’s employee-centric culture is built on strong communication, collaboration, and continuous growth. Our structured meeting rhythms keep everyone connected and supported, with daily huddles, weekly company L10 meetings, strategy sessions, and quarterly one-on-ones where team members set goals for their role, work-life balance, and compensation targets.

We genuinely care about every team member and each employee is able to share their voice and opinion in a way that makes them feel heard and valued. We feel we do an amazing job at identifying each employee's individual strengths and providing them an environment where those strengths can best be utilized for not only the betterment of the company but also the catalyst in assisting them to create their dream job.

A word on "perks" and a culture that ACTUALLY matters.

I think we’d all agree that "tech culture" or at least the appearance of tech culture is expected. Young, cool, hip, relaxed and flexible. So, if every single tech & marketing company in Alberta and across the universe promises this same working environment, how does Adster stand out?

Don’t get me wrong, we have all the prerequisite "cool" stuff, but if you’re coming to work at Adster because we have perks like free pop, an arcade and a foosball table, we have failed dismally in how we’re presenting ourselves. Our best bet is creating an environment - and a process - for figuring out what makes you uniquely you and ensuring that we’ve built a system around giving you the best support possible. More than this, I believe we've done an admirable job over the last 10 years, in allowing each team member to roll their own destiny when it comes to helping them build their dream job at Adster.

In fact, building your dream job is SO crucial to our team, we've made this both our BHAG and our 10-Year Target at Adster

We genuinely care about improving the quality of your life through your experiences at Adster and we’re committed to backing those words up with real action. At its core, I think that’s what our culture is all about.
