  • Build and activate PMPs and curated-marketplace deals tailored to buyer needs.
  • Structure and negotiate commercial deals with agencies and direct clients.
  • Translate ConnectAd's supply and platform capabilities into relevant, commercially compelling demand propositions.
  • Collaborate with product, operations, and supply teams to align demand activation with available inventory.
  • Represent ConnectAd at industry events and senior agency and client meetings across the D/A/CH region.
  • Monitor market trends and competitive dynamics to identify new demand opportunities.
  • Provide market feedback to product and leadership teams to inform ConnectAd's demand strategy.

Success metrics

  • Demand revenue growth across your D/A/CH agency and direct-client portfolio.
  • PMP and curated-marketplace revenue.
  • Number and quality of new agency and direct-client relationships established.
  • Agency and HoldCo spend activated through ConnectAd.
  • Pipeline quality and conversion rate.
  • Strategic relationship depth across agencies and direct clients in the region.

Requirements

  • Substantial, proven experience in programmatic advertising, adtech, DSP/agency partnerships, or digital-media business development.
  • Strong existing network across German, Austrian, and/or Swiss agency holding groups, independent agencies, trading desks, and/or direct advertisers.
  • Proven commercial track record of building revenue-generating demand partnerships.
  • Strong understanding of RTB, PMPs, curated marketplaces, deal IDs, DSPs, header bidding, and programmatic media buying.
  • Strong negotiation skills and the ability to engage senior stakeholders, translating technical programmatic topics into clear commercial value.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with high ownership, comfortable in a fast-moving, independent SSP environment.
  • Business-fluent German and English (C1 or above).

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation with a performance-based bonus (indicative base €70,000–€90,000, plus variable).
  • A strategic, high-impact role within a growing independent SSP.
  • A hybrid working model based in our Hamburg office, with flexibility to work remotely.
  • A collaborative, entrepreneurial environment where you shape ConnectAd's demand strategy across the D/A/CH region.

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.
