  • Act as Senior lead for strategic DSP relationships, driving visibility, adoption, and spend across Perion’s supply
  • Collaborate with SSP partners to ensure Perion packages are featured, discoverable, and positioned as premium supply options
  • Negotiate strategic marketplace partnerships and preferred listings with DSPs
  • Partner with Product, Data, and Yield teams to continuously optimize package design, bid density, and win rate

  • Collaborate with Marketing and Sales on GTM narratives, co-marketing initiatives, and thought leadership programs to elevate Perion’s marketplace brand
  • Represent Perion at industry events, panels, and client meetings as a marketplace and programmatic thought leader
  • Stay ahead of emerging marketplace trends (curation, SPO, sustainability, AI-driven optimization) and translate them into commercial opportunities for Perion
  • Serve as the “voice of the market” to influence internal roadmap decisions

Requirements:

  • 8+ years of experience in programmatic advertising, ideally within SSPs, DSPs, or advanced marketplace/curation environments
  • Proven success scaling programmatic revenue and building marketplace or curation strategies at a senior leadership level
  • Strong network and relationships with major DSP and holding company stakeholders
  • Deep understanding of auction mechanics, DSP buying logic, and supply path optimization
