This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a strong technical background in AdTech and/or Retail Media who enjoys being client-facing and wants to take ownership of complex technology integrations for major retail clients.

You’ll act as the key link between clients and internal Product, Engineering, Platform and Client Management teams, troubleshooting technical challenges, identifying scalable solutions and ensuring integrations are delivered successfully. You’ll also play an important role in shaping integration processes and best practice as the business continues to scale internationally.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead end-to-end technical integrations for new retail clients.
- Own the technical client relationship throughout onboarding and post-launch.
- Act as the primary technical point of contact during integrations and support troubleshooting and debugging when required.
- Work closely with Product and Engineering teams to identify immediate solutions and longer-term scalable improvements.
- Understand client requirements and translate them into clear technical solutions.
- Work across Sales, Product, Engineering, Platform and Client teams to ensure smooth implementation and delivery.
- Support feature requests and identify opportunities to improve the client experience.
- Help transition newly launched clients into ongoing technical support and Platform Operations.
- Maintain high standards of documentation and ensure effective handovers between integration, onboarding and support teams.

- Stay up to date with developments across Retail Media, AdTech and the wider advertising technology landscape.
