Director, TV, Video, Audio & Display

Role Overview

• Own senior‑stakeholder relationships and the client growth agenda; align full‑funnel TVAD plans (CTV/OTT, online video, digital audio/podcasts, programmatic display) to business goals; secure decisions on options and trade‑offs.
• Lead onboarding, transitions, escalations, and expansion; support new business with clear narratives tied to measurable impact.
• Orchestrate optimization across partners/DSPs (goal strategies, pacing, frequency/overlap control, quality/brand‑safety/verification); pilot safely, measure, and scale.
• Embed Bliss Point insights (Always‑On Incrementality, Brand/Creative/Customer Insights) into planning and allocation; close feedback loops with Product and Analytics to improve tools and models.
• Install strong, simple measurement habits: growth‑first innovation with success thresholds and read cadence (geo/lift/holdout where feasible; otherwise sound A/B or time‑series); forecast expected impact and risk.
• Help ensure data/ops health through close collaboration with the Media Investment team, and require forecast‑vs‑actual narratives in executive decisions.
• Connect the dots across channels for clients: explain how TVAD complements Search, Social, Commerce/Retail Media, CRM, TV/Audio, and Creative; propose integrated plans and a straightforward measurement approach to prove combined lift; codify reusable playbooks.
• Own the business like it’s yours: make and stand behind decisions that maximize client outcomes (growth, margin, LTV) within agreed guardrails; surface trade‑offs with clear thresholds/tolerances; keep a simple decision log tied to Rocks/KPIs.
• Forecast impact, track plan vs. actuals, and course‑correct quickly with Client Lead/Finance/Analytics; protect margin/utilization by prioritizing high‑value work and cutting busywork.
• Spot and de‑risk larger opportunities (e.g., higher‑quality CTV inventory, new audience/data partners, refreshed creative lengths) with small, safe pilots and clear thresholds—then scale and document the playbook.
• Remove recurring waste at the root (e.g., unmanaged frequency, viewability/IVT issues, overlapping buys, tagging gaps); set simple standards that prevent backslide and shorten time‑to‑resolution.
• Build and lead a high‑performing team: clear Rocks/KPIs, weekly 1:1s, timely feedback, capability development, and a succession bench; hire and onboard well. Install governance (standards, scorecards, QA cadence) that sustains quality and consistency across teams; coach managers to lead the system.

Requirements

• 10+ years in TV/video/audio/display with proven results at scale across multiple partners (CTV/OTT/Linear, online video, digital audio/podcasts, programmatic display); management experience required.
• Technical: Hands‑on knowledge of DSP/ad platforms and ad‑server workflows; frequency/overlap management; audience/data usage; quality/verification (viewability, IVT, brand safety); comfort coordinating with publishers/PMPs.
• Measurement: incrementality/lift, powered A/B or time‑series, forecasting; ability to connect media to revenue, CAC, LTV, incremental reach/attention; SQL familiarity a plus.
• Cross‑channel literacy: connect TVAD to Search, Social, Commerce/Retail Media, CRM, and Creative in simple, executive‑ready narratives.
• Financial acumen: margin/utilization management, capacity planning, reliable forecasting with Finance; staffing aligned to priorities.
• Leadership presence: clear, concise storytelling; expectation setting; confident with senior clients and internal leaders.
