Why You're Important to Us:

After driving growth for 400+ retailers and eCommerce companies, Wunderkind has successfully pioneered an ad experience that allows Publishers to give their visitors a better ad experience -- one that puts content first and ads second.

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 Programmatic Sales professional to work with our Director, Team Lead on a specified list of agency, trading desk, brand and DSP accounts across NYC and the larger east coast region. We are looking for someone with a proven track record of revenue growth and has healthy client relationships.

Day In The Life:

As a Programmatic Sales Manager you will drive demand for Wunderkind display & video ad inventory from agencies & advertisers across east coast accounts, ultimately meeting/exceeding revenue goals. To do this you will need to:

  • Evangelize Wunderkind display and video inventory to programmatic buyers and investment teams through steady outreach, meetings, and entertainment
  • 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 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

You Will Stand Out With:

  • BA/BS degree plus experience related to digital media or digital advertising
  • At least 3+ years of online 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

  • Comfortable in a high-growth environment where roles and responsibilities may shift
