Who we are

  8. Understand and effectively communicate The Trade Desk's value proposition, technology, processes, and partnerships, as they relate to growth of current client accounts.
  9. Help build the Client Services practice, including developing training material, customer facing assets, and internal resources for trading media through our platform.

What you bring to the table

  1. 7+ years of programmatic, hands-on DSP and/or online ad operations experience.

  3. Strong leadership skills: ability to set and communicate goals, measure accomplishments, hold team accountable, and give useful feedback; delegate and develop; keep people informed, and provide effective coaching.

  5. Solid experience in trafficking and optimizing CPA, CPC direct marketing campaigns preferably in an RTB environment.
  6. Solid experience in Excel including pivot tables, chart-making, and manipulation of data sets.
  7. Outstanding troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving abilities, along with an ability to collaborate cross-functionally in a get-it-done now start-up environment.
  8. Proven track record of growing accounts by forging a strong relationship with clients, understanding their objectives and recommending best strategies.
