A client services expert, you’re comfortable managing and growing key enterprise accounts, and able to prioritise between many different work streams.

You are a true consultative business partner with your clients. You understand how to create and maintain momentum. You love collaborating and bouncing ideas and strategies with a team and yet, you’re comfortable working autonomously.

  • Work closely with the Trading team to rapidly on board new customers and grow existing advertiser patches 
  • Work closely with Sales to identify ways to grow current accounts 
  • Become an expert on the use and best practices on The Trade Desk platform and offer insights to clients on how to improve campaigns 
  • Provide continual training to clients of all levels from young traders to heads of departments as new features are added to The Trade Desk 
  • Host meetings with people of influence on the account irrespective of the function and level 
  • Work with Product Management to help define features and drive enhancements to The Trade Desk platform and any other auxiliary element where synergies can be created (insights, measurement, billing, marketing, innovation) 
  • Help build the Client Services practice, by creating training materials, best practices, sales materials and customer facing guides 

What you bring to the table: 

  • Bachelor’s Degree 
  • 10 years digital advertising experience and client facing experience required 
  • Proven track record of growing accounts by forging a strong relationship with clients, understanding their objectives and recommending best strategies 
  • Effective time management skills – ability to prioritise and meet deadlines 
  • Experience with driving projects requiring stakeholders from different disciplines to drive output at pace 
  • Expertise in working with RTB, DSPs, ad exchanges, aggregators, ad servers, and other optimisation platforms is a plus 
  • Solid experience in Excel and MS Office, including pivot tables, chart-making 
  • Outstanding troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving abilities, along with an ability to collaborate cross-functionally in a fast-paced start-up environment

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
