I’m partnering with a global technology and advertising platform to hire a Strategic Partnerships Development Manager focused on Big Six media agency partnerships and programmatic SSP growth.

This role sits right at the intersection of agency relationships, programmatic advertising, and adtech commercialisation — ideal for someone who’s worked closely with media agencies and knows how SSP solutions actually get adopted.

🔑 The role

You’ll own senior relationships with global media agency groups, acting as a strategic partner while driving the commercial growth of SSP solutions across agency programmatic teams.

This is a hands-on partnerships role with real autonomy, senior stakeholder exposure, and influence across a complex, global organisation.

🧩 What you’ll be doing

Managing and deepening relationships with Big Six holding company agencies
Driving SSP adoption and growth across agency programmatic and trading teams

Developing partner strategies, identifying new opportunities, and shaping go-to-market approaches

Owning the end-to-end partnership lifecycle: pitching, negotiation, contracting, activation, and optimisation

Working cross-functionally with product, commercial, legal, and technical teams

Tracking performance, forecasting growth, and managing executive-level relationships

🎯 What I’m looking for

4+ years’ experience working with media agencies in programmatic advertising / adtech
Background in agency partnerships, programmatic partnerships, SSP, DSP, exchange, or adtech platform roles
Strong understanding of how agencies operate and how programmatic buying works
Proven experience commercialising adtech or programmatic solutions
Confident working with senior agency stakeholders and navigating complex environments

💡 Why this one stands out

You’re not selling media — you’re shaping agency strategy around SSP technology
Exposure to global agency groups and senior decision-makers
Opportunity to work on products that sit at the core of the programmatic ecosystem
