Are you ready to join the programmatic evolution?

Index Exchange (Index) is looking for a Senior Buyer Development Manager with outstanding ad technology, leadership and consultation skills to join our EMEA team. The role is based in London. The Index Buyer Development team provides agencies, trading desks, and advertisers with crucial insights into market developments and ensures that buyers have access to our publishers’ inventory via their preferred method. In this role, you will be responsible for engaging with buy side partners in the UK market. You will be crucial to maintaining and furthering existing relationships, whilst supporting business development to grow new accounts, partnerships and evangelize the Index Exchange brand.

This role will be focused on revenue attainment, but with a strong emphasis on providing consultative services to our buyers, so you will have to be comfortable with delivering educational sessions with a competent level of programmatic experience. You will be expected to thrive in a highly technical environment and have a much higher degree of technical proficiency than for your average role - prior exposure to programmatic terminology and trends will go a long way in setting you up for success.

What We’re Looking For:

Strategic : Index values partnerships and offering strategic insights to the agencies and marketers who leverage our exchange. We want you to provide insights and recommendations to our external stakeholders around the programmatic ecosystem, while using our strong suite of buyer products to grow our commercial relationships with partners.

Collaborative : To retain and maintain our growing agency and marketer accounts, you will work cross-functionally with buyer account management, operations, product and publisher teams, and become a subject matter expert on the performance and growth of our partners.

Communicative : You will be working with several clients at any given time and expected to communicate effectively, and often, both internally and externally. This is a highly visible, client facing role, where building trusted relationships with agencies and marketers is essential to success. You will have to be able to build strong relationships.

A Technical/Consultative Sales Approach; You will use your programmatic experience, technical platform interests, business acumen and deep understanding of Index’s buyer product suite to provide the right solution for our buyer partners.

Here’s What You’ll be Doing:

Become the day to day contact for UK based agencies, brands, and their associated programmatic Trading Desks. Manage relationships with buyers to provide partners with product suitability, partnership expansion opportunities, and ensure opportunities are being communicated through both a buyer and operational lens and across organizational lines. Become an educational resource for agency and marketer clients - from the trader level to senior stakeholders -- through thought leadership around the programmatic ecosystem and supply landscape. Source new partnerships, identify new sources of demand and align the needs of UK based buyers with the Index buyer product suite. Oversee financial reporting requirements and hold quarterly business reviews with key stakeholders (internal and external) and be comfortable reporting to business against revenue goals. Attend relevant industry events and entertain partners in innovative ways that foster engagement and strategic account growth. Partner with Index’s Account Management & Operations teams to manage deal activity and raise awareness of the opportunities made available by our premium publishers.

Here's What You Need:

5+ years of experience in digital media, and an in depth understanding of the programmatic advertising landscape (e.g. ad server, ad network, exchange, SSP, DSP, agency trading desk, PMP, etc).  An excellent understanding and in-depth knowledge of the UK buy side markets, as well as a comprehensive book of buy side contacts. Previous experience working in a buyer-facing sales roles at an exchange or a DSP is highly regarded.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

Comprehensive health, dental, and vision plans at no cost to you Time off and flexible work schedules Retirement plan with a 5% company match Stock options and equity packages Generous parental leave Monthly wellness stipend plus fitness discounts and quarterly wellness group activities Community engagement opportunities and donation-matching program Annual virtual company retreats and regular community-led team events One day off per year to volunteer  A workplace that supports a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment – learn more here
