6d•CA$110,000 - CA$130,000•Remote

About The Position

Canopy is seeking an experienced and entrepreneurial campaigner to join the Pack4Good (P4G) team as Senior Corporate Campaigner, with a focus on producer engagement. This is an external-facing role responsible for building and owning relationships with packaging producers, particularly in priority markets including China, to accelerate the uptake of Next Generation (Next Gen) materials like agricultural residues and drive meaningful progress toward Canopy’s 2030 goals. The successful candidate will combine deep knowledge of pulp and paper supply chains with the strategic acuity and cross-cultural fluency needed to operate in complex and rapidly evolving markets. Packaging is Canopy’s highest-growth opportunity for non-wood Next Gen fibre uptake, and the P4G strategy is focused on clustering brand demand signals around specific producers to create the market conditions for large-scale Next Gen adoption. The P4G Producer Senior Corporate Campaigner will be instrumental in operationalizing Canopy’s strategy. This is a high-leverage moment to transition packaging away from virgin wood fibre to protect the world’s remaining Ancient and Endangered Forests.
