• The role supports approximately 4 to 5 accounts with monthly programmatic budgets generally ranging from about $100,000 to $300,000.
• They want someone who started in programmatic activation or trading and has moved into a more strategic and client-facing role.
• Strong experience with platforms such as The Trade Desk, DV360, Amazon DSP and StackAdapt is helpful. The team is tech agnostic and works across many DSPs.
• The person should be comfortable presenting to clients, explaining programmatic simply, building proposals, and identifying opportunities to grow or protect client budgets.
• This is best suited for someone with approximately 5 to 7 years of experience. Management experience is helpful, but this is not a large team management role.
• The position reports to the Head of Programmatic Strategy and is based in New York with a 2-day in-office schedule.
