Michelle St. Jacques
Chief Marketing Officer, Molson Coors

“I am thrilled to be part of the Campaign Agency of the Year awards this year.  I have always believed deeply in the power of agency partnership – working with passionate & inspired agencies has always been the difference between unlocking the full potential of your brands vs. just treading water.  I can’t wait to recognize & celebrate the best of the best…the challenge will be there are so many great ones to choose from!”

Michelle “MSJ” St. Jacques is on a mission to build brands that more people want to hang out with. Since she joined Molson Coors as the chief marketing officer at the start of 2019, she has combined her passion for marketing with her inherent talent for modernizing iconic brands, reshaping the company’s marketing vision in the process. 

Her vision can be felt strongly within new innovations like Simply Spiked Lemonade and Topo Chico Hard Seltzer, and in recent advertising with Coors Light’s “Made to Chill” campaign and Miller Lite’s “beer’s beer” point of view. Michelle’s willingness to buy bold, unexpected ideas and “move at the speed of culture” has resulted in more buzz and excitement around Molson Coors brands than ever before. 

While Michelle’s track record and progressive approach to building brand equity have made her stand out in the field of marketing, her goal of leading the industry in building inclusive brands and ‘inviting more people to the bar’ has reinvigorated the Molson Coors marketing team.  

Prior to Molson, Michelle previously led global brand & capabilities at The Kraft Heinz Company. She is originally from Toronto, and now lives in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood. When she isn’t playing outside with her two sons, or talking beer to her sommelier husband, Michelle loves to run, make things and travel. 

To demonstrate Campaign Agency of the Year’s commitment to transparent and accurate results, the award process includes PwC as Process Integrity Partner. PwC is responsible for confirming due process in: entry collection and processing; jury selection; online judging; final judging (where applicable); and reporting of results.

Running alongside our local schemes, the Globals now provide individual agencies with a chance to compete on a global stage. The Globals are open to agencies of any size, shape or flavor, from a single office, boutique, specialist agency anywhere in the world, to a full agency network. Our jury will be judging your entries on the world-class quality of your achievements, not the scale of your enterprise.
