About the role
- Own end-to-end ad operations across direct campaigns, ensuring accurate trafficking, implementation, QA, and on-time delivery with consistently strong execution.
- Troubleshoot technical issues related to delivery, creative rendering, ad tags, measurement discrepancies, and platform integrations.
- Partner closely with Growth, Sales/Partnerships, Marketing, Analytics, and Product to translate campaign goals into clean operational plans and take ownership from setup through reporting.
- Run pacing, creative rotations, and flight management for direct campaigns; proactively spot issues and resolve them before they impact performance or partner trust.
- Support and maintain programmatic partner relationships, helping troubleshoot delivery issues and ensure proper setup and performance.
- Analyze programmatic performance and drive indirect demand optimizations to improve yield and inventory utilization.
- Maintain and improve ad tech platform operations (e.g., ad server workflows, naming conventions, inventory/creative specs, troubleshooting, and documentation).
- Deliver clear, client-facing performance reports, translating campaign data into actionable insights for internal stakeholders and advertising partners.
- Own end of campaign reporting, including delivery summaries, performance insights, KPI commentary, and recommendations for future activation.
Requirements
- Deeply experienced with Google Ad Manager (GAM), managing day-to-day operations including campaign trafficking, line item setup, inventory management, QA, delivery troubleshooting, and maintaining scalable, well-structured ad server workflows.
- Typically requires 4+ years of advertising operations experience; we may consider 3+ years for exceptional candidates with strong hands-on platform experience.
- You’re comfortable analyzing programmatic performance and making optimization decisions to improve yield and delivery.
- You’re fluent in performance measurement and reporting fundamentals; comfortable partnering with Analytics to define KPIs, validate tracking, and turn results into clear next steps.
- You’ve worked with ad tech operations and platform workflows (ad server and/or programmatic tooling), and you’re energised by making systems cleaner and more scalable.
- You collaborate with purpose: you communicate clearly across functions, set expectations early, and bring people along with empathy and Respect.
- You take ownership and see things through from insight to impact, especially when details are messy and priorities shift.
- You bring an agile mindset: you iterate fast, improve processes continuously, and stay calm under change.
- You’re comfortable using AI in day-to-day work (e.g., drafting partner updates, accelerating QA/reconciliation checks, exploring anomalies, or improving documentation), and you’re thoughtful about data privacy and accuracy.
