  • Stay informed on evolving political data partnerships, SSP integrations, and programmatic trends to provide consultative value to clients
  • Work closely with Marketing and CSM teams to develop targeted materials, client case studies, and event participation opportunities
  • Maintain accurate deal records, activity logs, and forecasts in HubSpot
  • Contribute to team pipeline reviews and share best practices across the Political Sales team
