Wunderkind (formerly BounceX)

Wunderkind (formerly BounceX)

Sales & Business Development
London, UK
Posted on Friday, June 2, 2023

Recently awarded as one of the Sunday Times Top 100 Best Places To Work in the UK, Wunderkind are building a brand new Ads team after the success in the US. Working with 300+ brands and 350+ premium publishers, Wunderkind is already working with the likes of Coca-Cola, Adidas, Apple and Amazon to name a few.

Rather than placing an ad in front of someone while they're actively trying to read content, our technology patiently waits until a visitor has stopped reading before rendering our ad on the page. And that patience pays off - it turns out that when an ad experience respects the user's reason for visiting a page, the user respects the ad experience in return. This unique, brand safe approach to ad experience gives an advertiser's message more attention and greater engagement.


Wunderkind is looking for a top-performing Agency Sales Director to work across agencies, trading desks, brands and DSP accounts across the UK. We are looking for someone with a proven track record of revenue growth; someone who has excellent client relationships and reputation in market.

Key Responsibilities will include:

As an Agency Sales Director you will drive demand for Wunderkind’s display & video ad inventory from agencies & advertisers across accounts, ultimately meeting/exceeding revenue goals. To do this you will need to:

  • Evangelise Wunderkind display and video inventory to programmatic buyers and investment teams through steady outreach, meetings, and engagement
  • Own the relationship and ultimate success of a dedicated segment of Wunderkind’s demand-side agency partners
  • Work closely with Account Management to maximize campaign performance, spend, and renewal business
  • Offer clients insight on how to launch and improve campaigns across Wunderkind’s inventory and provide ongoing management to clients as new features and inventory are added to our product offering
  • Develop best practices by creating training materials, sales materials and customer facing guides

About You

  • University Degree preferable
  • At least 6-8 years of digital advertising sales experience required
  • Expertise in selling and scaling programmatic ad campaigns
  • Experience working with DSPs, ad exchanges, ad servers, and other optimization platforms is a plus
  • Experience selling and calculating CPA, CPC, CPCV and CPM campaigns
  • Motivated, tenacious, and resourceful
  • Persuasive and compelling
