Email Marketing Specialist (MailerLite, Copy, Design and Deliverability): Regulated eCommerce Niches

Part-time (around 20 hrs/week to start, room to grow to full-time)
Wage: $8-12 USD/hr, depending on experience
Hours: Flexible, with a few hours of overlap with Pacific Time (Vancouver) for check-ins

ABOUT US
APEX Media Lab is a Vancouver-based performance marketing agency. We grow brands in regulated niches, including research peptides, CBD, nicotine and spirits, where mainstream platforms and tools often don't work. We're adding a dedicated email person who can own client email programs end to end.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Plan and run email programs for 3-5 clients: content calendars, campaigns and core flows (welcome, abandoned cart, post-purchase, winback)
• Write the copy and build the email s yourself in MailerLite and similar platforms
• Design clean, mostly text-forward email s using templates, Canva or Figma; our ad creative designer supplies hero images and brand assets
• Own deliverability: domain setup (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), warmup, list hygiene and monitoring sender reputation
• Keep all copy compliant: no medical or health claims, and proper consent and unsubscribe handling (CASL / CAN-SPAM)
• Keep regular list exports and backups so a client never loses their list if a platform shuts an account down
• Report monthly on revenue, opens, clicks and deliverability

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• 2+ years in email marketing, with flows and campaigns you built yourself
• Hands-on experience with MailerLite or Kit/ConvertKit (Klaviyo-only experience isn't enough for this role)
• A real understanding of deliverability, not just design
• Strong written English and persuasive copywriting
• A portfolio of email work
• Bonus: experience with supplements, CBD, health products or other restricted categories

HOW TO APPLY
Start your application with the word PEPTIDE so we know you read this far. Applications without it won't be reviewed. Include:
1. Your portfolio or 2-3 example email s or flows you built
2. Which email platforms you've used, and for what types of brands
3. One sentence on how you'd set up a brand-new sending domain

Shortlisted applicants will complete a paid test project ($20): writing and building a 3 -email welcome flow for a peptide brand.
