THE ROLE

The primary task of the Team Lead AdOps & Programmatic is to lead and empower the ad operations and programmatic team, ensuring the smooth day-to-day execution of advertising campaigns on Zattoo and partner platforms. They will closely collaborate with the Chief Advertising Officer, the Heads of Sales in each country, and the PO-Ads to facilitate a seamless ad operations experience for advertisers, agencies, and other internal and external stakeholders. Alongside the PO-Ads, they will continuously monitor and improve Ad Tech topics to optimize processes, enhance performance, and support overall sales and business targets. In addition to the aforementioned tasks, one of the main responsibilities is to ensure the correct invoicing of all sold campaigns, making them responsible for managing an ads budget of over multi-million.

THE TEAM

With more than 10 experts in the fields of ad operations, ad sales, and programmatic, the advertising team manages all advertising-related topics in-house. Advertising dynamic video inventory is a growing business and plays a crucial role at Zattoo. It contributes to Zattoo's financing of our Zattoo DTC Free offering and assists Broadcasters in monetizing their ad breaks through either server-side dynamic ad substitution (SS-DAS) or client-side dynamic ad insertion (CS-DAI) solutions. Both are TV platform developments used by Zattoo B2B tenants and our DTC subscription offering. Having the right advertising team in place ensures a significant revenue stream for Zattoo, constituting 25% of our overall revenue target.
