Your tasks

THE ROLE

As a Programmatic Sales GSA, you will be responsible for the automated and data-driven sale of our digital advertising inventory (primarily video and CTV) and report directly to the Director Sales All Markets. You will manage programmatic bookings, oversee the planning, implementation and optimisation of our initiatives to boost revenue in programmatic sales, and will therefore also be directly responsible for the optimisation and smooth, technical implementation of campaigns. This makes you the primary point of contact for agency trading desks in the GSA region regarding preferred deals and PMP strategies. You’ll also help with SSP and header bidding integrations and act as the link between Sales, Tech and AdOps.

• Explain complex technical matters in simple terms to non-technical customers or internal departments.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

• 4+ years of experience in Programmatic Advertising, SSP Management, or Programmatic Account Management (strong experience in CTV/Video)
• A proven track record in the sales of digital advertising products
• Deep understanding of Google Ad Manager, DSP/SSP workflows, OpenRTB specs, and deal types (Preferred Deals, PMP, PG)
