About the Role
Are you analytical, well-organised, and confident in terms of working with a team and communicative from the outset?
Are you looking to work for a Media Agency around Publishing?
We're looking for a Publisher Services Executive to support our web and app publisher partners across both direct-sold and programmatic supply. You'll help manage bookings, campaign trafficking, and tag implementation, while building the relationship and commercial skills to grow into a full publisher management role.
This is a great entry point into digital ad operations — you'll get hands-on exposure to both the technical side of running campaigns and the commercial side of managing publisher partners, across web and in-app inventory.
You will learn and develop in using systems, mainly the GAM ad server, so you are able to send tags out to publishers, set up reports in the platform and identify discrepancies, etc.
Key Responsibilities
Publisher Relationship Support
- Act as day-to-day contact for a portfolio of web and app publisher partners, supporting the Publisher Services Manager on account management
- Help maintain strong working relationships with publishers to support supply quality and availability
- Assist with regular check-ins and performance reviews with publisher partners
