  • Build strong, lasting relationships with clients based on knowledge, trust, transparency, and exceptional results.
  • Stay at the forefront of industry trends and share knowledge with the team to drive continuous improvement.
  • Build advocacy for Permutive and our audiences across agency customer teams, owning relationships with stakeholders up to the Head of Programmatic level.
  • Attend industry conferences, events, and networking sessions.
Requirements
  • Extensive experience of success in digital, mobile, and/or programmatic and/or audience data advertising sales, with strong existing relationships with media agencies and/or brands directly.
  • A self-starter mentality, with a hunter approach, able to work independently yet collaboratively to build new business.
  • Demonstrated success in a goal-oriented, highly accountable sales environment.
  • Expertise in the programmatic ecosystem, including ad exchanges, DSPs, SSPs, and data providers.
  • A passion for being an expert and evangelist on industry trends, building relationships, and gaining traction with other industry thought leaders.
  • Deep understanding of audience segmentation, targeting strategies, and digital measurement, including MMM, econometrics, and attention metrics.
  • Experience managing large budgets and complex campaigns with multiple stakeholders.
  • The ability to structure, negotiate, and close advertising deals.
  • A strategic mindset, supporting the team and management in creating best-in-class data and audience solutions for clients.
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills, conveying complex information clearly and concisely.
  • A track record of developing lasting relationships with key decision-makers at large media and advertising agencies.
