What Will You Bring to the Team?
  • Core Experience: 3-5 years of proven digital media sales experience, ideally focused on video, CTV, or programmatic channels.
  • Agency Network & Domain Expertise: Strong existing network across Publicis Groupe agencies (e.g., Zenith, Starcom, Spark Foundry, Digitas) and direct advertiser contacts, paired with a solid understanding of CTV, OLV, digital display, and programmatic buying.
