  • Negotiate strategic marketplace partnerships and preferred listings with DSPs.

    • Cross-Functional Leadership

  • Partner with Product, Data, and Yield teams to continuously optimize package design, bid density, and win rate.
  • Guide the Yield Optimization and Technical Integration teams to ensure seamless activation and performance measurement.
  • Collaborate with Marketing and Sales on GTM narratives, co-marketing initiatives, and thought leadership programs to elevate Perion's marketplace brand.

    • Market Development & Thought Leadership

  • Represent Perion at industry events, panels, and client meetings as a marketplace and programmatic thought leader.
  • Stay ahead of emerging marketplace trends (curation, SPO, sustainability, AI-driven optimization) and translate them into commercial opportunities for Perion.
  • Serve as the "voice of the market" to influence internal roadmap decisions.

    • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  • DSP bid volume and spend growth through Perion's open auction and curated packages
  • Adoption and visibility of Perion packages across DSP marketplaces
  • Incremental programmatic revenue growth YoY
  • Strategic partnership signings with DSPs and SSPs (preferred status, integrations, co-marketing)
  • Contribution to total programmatic revenue and yield improvement

    • Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience in programmatic advertising, ideally within SSPs, DSPs, or advanced marketplace / curation environments.
  • Proven success scaling programmatic revenue and building marketplace or curation strategies at a senior leadership level.
