The Role

We're looking for a Digital Media Planner (Direct IO - B2B) to own publisher direct and partner media for one of Wpromote's largest B2B accounts: a leading financial software company whose products span mid-market ERP, advanced small business accounting, and marketing automation. You'll sit within our B2B team, surrounded by a full account team of strategists, channel leads, analysts, and coordinators, and you'll be the person who makes sure the client has the right media partnerships to hit their goals.

This is a role for someone who likes the partner side of media: building relationships with publishers and vendors, running RFPs, negotiating, and holding partners to the same performance standard as any self-serve platform. Budgets are sizable and move often, so you'll need to be comfortable with change and clear-headed about where the dollars should go.
