Monique Daniel is a Toronto-based communications leader with 14 years’ experience in public relations. As an avid foodie, one of her favourite places in Toronto is right in her own neighborhood in southwest Scarborough where she travels the world through food enjoying delectable eats like authentic Iraqi charcoal BBQ chicken tikka kebabs or mouth-watering Lebanese desserts made with ashta cream.
She currently serves as Director of Communications at Emburse, a high-growth, rapidly scaling business travel and expense management, accounts payable and payments company.
In her role, she leads a global team across public relations, analyst relations, social media and stakeholder communications.
In her previous role as Senior PR Manager at Sage, Monique led Corporate Affairs for the Canadian market, overseeing product and corporate news, executive communications and brand reputation.
Monique spent the first part of her career at a Toronto-based boutique PR agency where she worked with brands like Clif Bar & Company, Magnotta Winery and Yorkshire Valley Farms. Monique credits her early career pivot into tech to a female mentor who recognized her skills and passion and recommended her for a junior role at global PR agency, Porter Novelli. There, she grew her career through impactful thought leadership programs that influenced purchase consideration for global tech brands including HP Inc., HPE, Sage, Adobe, Palo Alto Networks and FICO.
