What we do:

The Inventory Partnerships Team support, develop and maintain a portfolio of partnerships with local EMEA-wide publishers, SSP and Ad Exchange partners as well as technology vendors. We have a broad remit in shaping the local operational workflow. Within this we manage contracts, and relationships as well as supporting integrations (led by Technical Account Managers). Were as comfortable diving into Excel to analyze a problem as we are with meeting new partners at conferences. As a pivotal point between the Trade Desks clients and the publishers, we work as well independently as we do in a team environment, and frequently have to develop new relationships across the business as we work cross-functionally. The Inventory team have an operational mindset and enjoy seeking and completing challenging tasks at hand, before switching into a commercial mode as we support pitches and presentations, as subject matter experts on a plethora of areas. Our role is driven by a passion for the programmatic advertising ecosystem, and we love learning new technology and teaching it to others.
