— Why Accrue
What the
work looks like
Retail media is one of the fastest-moving corners of commerce, and most agencies handle that by adding process. We handled it by removing distance.
At Accrue you own accounts, not tickets. You’ll sit across from the brand, build the strategy, run the spend, and see the retail number move, often within the same week. The founders are still in the work, which means the person who can unblock you is one message away, not three approvals up.
That comes with real accountability. We hire people who want the account to be theirs, who’d rather be trusted than managed, and who are genuinely curious about why a number moved. In exchange you get scope earlier than you would almost anywhere else, and a market (Amazon, DSP, AMC, retail ops) where the skills you build are in permanent demand.
We’re Canadian-rooted with North American reach and a team that’s global by design. Enterprise rigor, boutique agility isn’t a tagline we wrote for clients; it’s the operating condition you’ll work in every day.

Pay, benefits and time off
Benefits vary by market. Your recruiter will confirm exactly what applies to your location on the first call.
Competitive pay
Salaries are benchmarked against your local market rather than discounted for working remotely, and reviewed on a set schedule.
Paid time off
Your time off is yours to enjoy. Step away, recharge, travel, unwind, or simply do more of what makes you happy
Health benefits
Medical, dental and vision coverage where we are able to offer it, with a contribution toward equivalent private cover in other markets.
Select markets
Learning and development
Defined stages with written expectations, twice-yearly reviews, and Amazon Ads, DSP and AMC certifications paid for.
Remote-first
Most roles are open to anywhere. We have been distributed since the start, so decisions are written down and your location does not limit your scope.
Team and social events
Monthly socials, team offsites, and a Slack channel that is not only about work. Small enough that everyone knows your name.
— Development
Career growth
Stages of scope rather than fixed job titles. Media, client success, retail operations and analytics follow the same shape.
Learning the fundamentals
You run day-to-day execution on a set of accounts: campaign builds, bid and budget management, reporting. You're learning the retail mechanics behind the ads.
Owning accounts
You own accounts end to end and join client calls in your own right. You're often the one who spots an issue in the data before the brand does.
Setting strategy
You set direction across a portfolio, mentor the people behind you, and are accountable for the growth number. Your remit widens into DSP, AMC and retail operations.
Leading a team
You lead a pod, shape how the team works rather than only doing the work, and hold the relationships behind renewals and expansion.
Leading a discipline
You own a discipline across the agency: hiring into it, setting the standard, and building the playbooks the next intake learns from.

Local time, right now. If you're reading this from somewhere not on the list, that's not a problem. It's most of the point.
— Life at Accrue —
More than just a workplace
Remote does not have to mean on your own. These are the habits that keep a team spread across time zones feeling like one, and they are the part of the job nobody puts in a job description.
Access
The founders are in the room
Angle, Ahmed and Haris are on accounts, not just the org chart. You'll present your own work to them, argue your own case, and get an answer the same day. At most agencies your idea reaches the top as someone else's summary. Here it doesn't get relayed at all.
Balance
Work-life balance
We support a healthy work-life balance, wherever in the world you are.
Socials
Monthly get-togethers
Virtual games nights, regional dinners where there's a cluster of us, and the occasional cooking class gone wrong.
Offsites
We get in a room
Team offsites bring everyone together in person: part planning, part the thing that turns a Slack thread into colleagues.
Learning
Internal teach-ins
Whoever cracked something interesting that month presents it. It's how a DSP trick from one account ends up on twelve others.
Recognition
Wins get a name attached
When an account turns a corner we say whose work it was, publicly, with the number. Credit here is specific, not a group thank-you at the end of a deck.
