What you'll do

  • Own and deliver revenue targets across a dedicated portfolio of top EMEA accounts, with accountability for forecast accuracy, risk management, and long-term growth.

  • Unlock incremental revenue through expansion into new geographies, business units, use cases, and product adoption.
  • Own the most complex and ambiguous commercial negotiations across your portfolio, structuring non-standard agreements in partnership with Sales, Finance, Legal, and leadership.
  • Act as a trusted commercial advisor and industry expert to your customers, combining deep knowledge of their business models and company goals with insight into market dynamics and competitive trends.
  • Develop tailored proposals grounded in customer business outcomes, including lifetime value, payback period, and return on ad spend at scale.
  • Build long-term strategic partnerships with customers, independently owning C-suite and senior commercial relationships.
  • Lead executive business reviews and strategic planning conversations, translating performance data into clear recommendations for long-term growth.
  • Apply deep knowledge of Moloco's products, machine learning capabilities, and the mobile advertising ecosystem to shape credible solutions for customers.

  • Lead the commercial development of new and ambiguous growth opportunities, setting direction, mobilising cross-functional teams, and driving customer validation.
  • Influence senior cross-functional stakeholders to prioritise strategic account opportunities, secure resources, and resolve competing priorities.
  • Set the standard for consultative selling, deal strategy, negotiation, and executive engagement across EMEA, coaching Growth Managers and Growth Directors.
  • Bring senior commercial expertise to accounts beyond your own portfolio, leading high-stakes customer conversations, navigating complex negotiations, and resolving escalations.
  • Turn successful approaches into practical frameworks and playbooks that raise commercial standards across EMEA.
  • Build a reputation as a recognised industry expert in adtech and mobile growth, actively speaking at industry events and sharing insights.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of experience in mobile advertising, account management, consultative sales, or commercial leadership.
  • A proven track record of owning and growing some of an organisation's largest and most strategically important accounts, navigating complex customer relationships and delivering substantial, sustained revenue growth.
  • Experience leading complex commercial negotiations and structuring agreements around customer business objectives.
  • Demonstrated ability to build trusted executive relationships and influence strategic investment decisions.
  • Deep understanding of the mobile advertising ecosystem, mobile measurement partners (MMPs), attribution, and programmatic performance marketing.
  • Evidence of improving commercial outcomes beyond your own accounts through coaching, co-selling, or cross-functional leadership.
  • Fluency in English.
  • Exceptional commercial judgment and the ability to understand how customers make money, assess opportunities, and make disciplined trade-offs.
  • Strong product and analytical fluency, with the ability to connect technical capabilities and performance data to business value.
  • Executive presence and clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to simplify complex issues for senior audiences.
  • High ownership and resilience, with the ability to sustain momentum through long commercial cycles and changing priorities.
  • Comfort operating autonomously in ambiguous situations, creating clarity and mobilizing others around a shared outcome.
  • A collaborative, low-ego approach, with a commitment to learning, sharing credit, and developing others.
