About the role
This is more than a traditional partnership management role. We're looking for a commercial builder and strategic operator who can independently lead a high-performing team, establish executive-level relationships, identify new growth opportunities, and turn complex technical capabilities into differentiated business value. Our five company values form a solid bedrock serving to define us as a group and guide the company. Our values remind us that how we do things often matters as much as what we do.

- Demonstrated track record of driving measurable revenue growth through strategic partnerships, business development, or commercial leadership
- Experience building new commercial opportunities and expanding existing relationships beyond traditional account management
- Deep understanding of the programmatic ecosystem, including real-time bidding, supply-path optimization, identity, auction dynamics, and DSP/SSP economics
