Who You Are
As a Programmatic Sales Executive, you are a revenue driver who thrives on building partnerships with agency trading desks, DSPs, SSPs, and programmatic buyers. You’ll be responsible for prospecting, pitching, setting up, and managing ongoing programmatic relationships — ensuring Zoomer Digital’s inventory and audiences are represented across key automated buying channels.
This is a pure sales role: no campaign management or administrative support responsibilities. You’ll own the full business development lifecycle — from pipeline creation to deal activation — while logging all activities, opportunities, and communications in Ad Orbit (OMS) like any other member of our digital sales team.
The ideal candidate combines a strong understanding of the programmatic ecosystem with a proactive, relationship-driven sales approach.
What You'll Do
- Prospect and build relationships with agencies, trading desks, DSPs, SSPs, and brand-side programmatic buyers.
- Pitch and activate deals that increase Zoomer Digital’s programmatic revenue footprint across PMP, PG, and PD channels.
- Negotiate terms and deal structures directly with partners to optimize yield and long-term relationships.
- Collaborate with Ad Ops and leadership to ensure proper setup and implementation within GAM and relevant DSPs.
- Track and log all outreach, meetings, and deals in Ad Orbit (OMS) to maintain visibility and accountability.
- Analyze performance and identify growth opportunities within programmatic pipelines.
- Stay current on emerging technologies, trends, and best practices in digital advertising, ad tech, and automation.
What You Have
- Proven experience in programmatic sales, ad tech, or digital media partnerships.
- Established network within media agencies, trading desks, and DSPs.
- Solid understanding of GAM, SSPs, DSPs, and programmatic deal types (PMP, PG, PD, open auction).
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills.
- Highly organized, self-motivated, and able to manage multiple priorities independently.
- Familiarity with CRM or OMS systems (Ad Orbit, Salesforce, HubSpot, etc.) for tracking sales activity.
- A passion for digital innovation and building scalable revenue relationships.
What We Offer
- Flexible paid time off policy to ensure you're able to get the break you need and work at an optimized level.
- Hybrid work environment.
- Benefits package including dental, vision and extended health starting after 3 months.
- Opportunity for career growth within a fast-growing digital media network.
