Manager – Research, Marketing & Social Media
A graduate of the University of Toronto’s English M.A. program, Sam heads up Argentus’ content efforts through The Link – Argentus Supply Chain Recruiting’s industry blog. He arrived in 2013 to find a small web presence at Argentus. Ever since, he’s transformed our site into a content destination with a significant social media footprint across a variety of channels.
Today, Supply Chain and Procurement executives and influencers from all across Canada and the U.S. trust Argentus’ industry blog as a valuable resource to find out what’s happening with talent in the industry – and candidates and job seekers at every stage of their careers depend on Argentus as a wellspring of information on career development, personal branding, resume writing, salary information, and job searching. He’s interviewed some of the top executives in Consumer Goods, Manufacturing, Retail, Public Sector, and other industries to find out what motivates some of Supply Chain and Procurement’s brightest lights, and our deep network of industry professionals across the country consistently praise his insights and perspective on what’s happening in the field.
Beyond his work on the Argentus blog, Sam adds tremendous value to the Argentus organization through a variety of avenues, from growth hacking our email marketing, to providing graphic design for our Infographics and job ads, to supercharging our LinkedIn presence, to bolstering our SEO profile, to advancing our Twitter following, and writing numerous successful bid proposals to aid in business development.
Sam also heads Argentus’ research function, using his considerable skills to gather market intelligence and help us develop our always-evolving position in the marketplace. An expert in social media sourcing, Sam often acts as the “tip of the spear” of our talent sourcing pipeline, using creativity and panache to identify new sources of passive talent which our clients leverage into successful hires across a variety of industries.
As someone who wears many hats in the organization, Sam has helped to build Argentus’ brand into one of the most recognizable and trusted in the Supply Chain industry in Canada. He’s orchestrated a web presence that more than lives up to the organizational culture that Bronwen established over a decade ago: Fierce. Bold. Tenacious. A little bit quirky. Argentus is all of those things, and so is Sam – that’s why he’s such an integral piece of the puzzle.
