Senior Programmatic Manager
Senior Programmatic Manager
London | Hybrid – 3 days per week
£55,000–£60,000
I’m supporting a growing independent AdTech business looking to hire a Senior Programmatic Manager into its London team.
This is a hands-on role for someone who combines strong programmatic trading and AdOps expertise with a commercial mindset. You’ll take ownership of campaign delivery, improve how the operations team works and help develop more junior team members.
The role:
- Own the setup, delivery and optimisation of programmatic campaigns across display, video, CTV, audio and native
- Manage trafficking, tagging, tracking, audience strategy, pacing and campaign QA
- Lead performance analysis and identify opportunities to improve both results and account revenue
- Work across major DSPs, with strong DV360 experience particularly important
- Troubleshoot campaign delivery, pixel and creative issues
- Build clear client reporting and present actionable performance insights
- •mprove operational processes, workflows and automation
- Support and develop a small team of programmatic specialists
What they’re looking for:
- 5+ years’ experience across programmatic trading, media buying or digital campaign operations
- Strong hands-on experience with DV360 and other leading DSPs
- Good knowledge of AdOps, trafficking, tracking and campaign measurement
- Experience optimising campaigns against performance and conversion-focused KPIs
- Commercial awareness and the ability to identify growth opportunities
- Strong analytical, problem-solving and client communication skills
- Previous management experience is useful, although they will consider someone ready to take their first formal leadership step
This would suit a technically strong programmatic operator who still enjoys being close to campaign delivery but wants broader ownership across people, performance and operational strategy.
