• Serve as the primary operational point of contact for Account Management on assigned accounts, ensuring clear and proactive alignment.
• Troubleshoot complex delivery, tracking, and creative issues in close partnership with Product, Studio, and external technical partners.
• Leverage internal AI tools and programmatic capabilities to streamline operational workflows and elevate campaign outcomes.
