About the role

Do you already know your way around New York's media agencies, from the trading desks to the planning teams to agency leadership? Would you like to sell CTV, online video, display and programmatic to agencies and brands, with a platform behind you that buyers already use?
You'd be the commercial lead for a group of the city's leading media agencies, plus their brand-direct clients. You'd grow revenue through strategic agency partnerships, working every day with the insights, customer experience and technical solutions teams to turn client goals into strong campaign plans.
You'd own the full commercial cycle, from working through agency trading desks to pitching consultatively and keeping campaigns performing. Success means hitting your revenue target, getting partners using more of the platform across CTV, online video, display and programmatic, and keeping clients renewing.

- Find and close new revenue across your agencies and brand-direct accounts
- Build relationships at every level, from traders and planners to agency leadership
- Show agency partners and brands how CTV, online video, display and programmatic can work for them
- Match the platform's products to what each agency and brand needs, and build tailored campaign solutions
- Work with the internal teams to deliver campaigns well and keep clients happy
- Keep an accurate, up-to-date pipeline in the CRM so forecasts are reliable
- Review RFPs, trading agreement margins and campaign performance to grow accounts and win renewals
You'll need
- 3 to 5 years of digital media sales, ideally video, CTV or programming.
- An existing network across New York's major media agencies and direct advertiser contacts
- A solid understanding of how CTV, online video, display and programmatic are bought
- Strong writing, speaking and presenting, with a record of negotiating with and influencing agency and brand decision makers
- A proactive, self-directed approach, and comfort in a fast-changing AdTech market
