Operations & Engagement Coordinator, Agency Development & Sales Strategy

The mission of the Agency Development & Sales Strategy team is to leverage agencies as our next big source of incremental revenue growth. Our strategy is to create the conditions for our Sales Organization to drive more revenue from agency partners. Our approach is threefold: drive demand by changing perceptions; enable commerce by reducing friction and creating incentives; and standardize ways of working in order to scale. As a small but growing team, we have outsized impact by leveraging other internal teams, including Industry Marketing, Sales, Revenue Operations, and Programmatic Ops.

You will ensure that information, timelines and logistics stay aligned. You will assist in setting up and maintaining internal systems and workflows that translate strategy into successful agency partnership.

This role is ideal for a highly organized professional with strong project coordination skills, attention to detail, and an interest in agency partnerships, engagements, and media. Success in this role is defined by reliable execution, clear communication, and the smooth, scalable operation of our processes.

• 1+ years of experience in operations or project coordination, event planning, business strategy support, business development support, or a related field.
