  • Partner closely with commercial stakeholders to operationalize planning strategies at scale, managing the feedback loop for ongoing optimization
  • Ensure accuracy and consistency across proposals, including targeting, inventory assumptions, and delivery expectations
  • Identify process improvements to increase planning efficiency and reduce friction
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Sales, Deal Desk, and Media Operations teams

WHAT YOU’LL BRING:

  • 2+ years of experience in media planning, deal desk, or advertising operations (programmatic or digital media preferred)
  • Strong understanding of omnichannel media inventory, audience targeting, and packaging fundamentals
  • Experience working with planning tools, inventory trackers, and media calendars
  • High attention to detail with the ability to manage multiple requests simultaneously
  • Strong organizational and communication skills
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, revenue-driven environments
  • Proficiency in Excel / Google Sheets; experience with media planning systems a plus

IT WILL BE A BONUS IF YOU KNOW:

  • Have experience supporting programmatic or data-driven advertising products
  • Have familiarity with SSP, DSP, or curated marketplace platform mechanics and dynamics
  • Have worked in sports, media, or ad tech environments
  • Enjoy building scalable processes and templates from the ground up

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
