Verve For Advertisers is a technology company that empowers brands and agencies to connect moments of discovery and drive measurable outcomes across screens.

As part of Verve, we've unified the company's demand-side offering, bringing together the largest on-site search intent dataset outside of walled gardens, direct SDK integrations with top apps, alongside data partnerships with 3M+ websites and LLMs. Our technology captures both what consumers do and why they do it, delivering high-fidelity audiences, insights, and activation across premium omnichannel inventory.

We're looking for an experienced publisher sales professional to develop new strategic partnerships with the biggest online publishers. The successful candidate will have 5-7 years experience selling digital advertising to major publishers and a deep understanding of the industry.

## Responsibilities include

- Manage the onboarding process and serve as a strategic partner throughout the ongoing partnerships
- Collaborate with internal teams (Product, Operations, Marketing, etc.) to ensure successful integrations and partner success
- Represent Jun Group at industry events, conferences, and meetings with publisher partners
- Monitor the evolving ad tech landscape and actively track emerging industry trends to anticipate shifts and spot opportunities early to keep our strategy ahead of the curve
- Collaborate with Product and Marketing to inform go-to-market strategy, product development and enhancements

Here are a few indicators that you're the right person

- You’re passionate about digital media
- You know digital publishing like the back of your hand
- You're fearless, restless and curious
- You have a proven track record of strong performance, including breaking new business and exceeding quotas
- You have strong organization skills and show great attention to detail
- You prioritize well, display a sense of urgency, and have no problem meeting deadlines

## Requirements

- 5-6 years of online media/publisher partnerships experience

Some company benefits include

- Competitive salary & favorable commission package
- Health, dental, and vision insurance, plus mental health resources
- 401(k) match and generous PTO

Verve For Advertisers offers a hybrid work model. This role is based in our NYC office at Madison Square Park, where we welcome our team in-office three days per week.

We welcome diversity and non-traditional paths into all of our roles. We believe in hiring the right person as opposed to the right combination of keywords.
