• Achieving in year sales targets set in collaboration with the senior leadership team.
• Build and convert a high-quality pipeline of new logos - drawing on a mix of outbound through self-generated outbound, networking, and events and the inbound brand-led demand you help create - with emphasis on new-to-Miri accounts, not just referrals.
• Sell consultatively to CMOs, VPs of Growth and UA leads - connecting Miri's creative + performance model to each client’s CPA, ROAS, LTV and retention objectives.
• Own and exceed quarterly and annual revenue targets for Europe, reporting regularly to agency leadership.
• Represent Miri Growth at key industry events, conferences and client meetings; acting as a compelling ambassador for the agency's capabilities and results.
• We will expect you to travel to conferences, events and clients when required.

Go-to-Market & Brand Leadership (c. 20%)

• Define and execute a EMEA go-to-market and demand generation strategy in partnership with global leadership.
• Help develop and sales and marketing assets, case studies, pitch decks, thought leadership content, social, etc, that articulate Miri's creative and UA proposition to the EMEA markets.
• Own the EMEA go-to-market and demand-generation strategy, deciding how Miri builds awareness, pipeline and reputation in the region, with strategic direction from senior leadership and central campaign resources to execute it.
• Identify and pursue co-selling and joint marketing opportunities with platform partners, including Meta, TikTok, Google, Apple Ads and relevant ad networks.

Requirements

• Proven new business track record in mobile performance marketing, mobile advertising or ad tech, with a history of owning and exceeding revenue targets in the EMEA market.
• Deep UA knowledge across paid social (Meta, TikTok, Snap), Google UAC, Apple Search Ads and mobile DSPs - including fluency with iOS privacy changes (ATT/SKAdNetwork) and privacy-first measurement.
• Fluency with MMPs (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Singular), mobile attribution and performance
• KPIs - CPA, ROAS, LTV, retention - plus familiarity with incrementality testing and modern measurement.
• Strong analytical and pipeline management skills; experienced with CRM tools (Hubspot desirable) and reporting platforms to track performance and forecast revenue.
• A demand-generation mindset: a track record of building pipelines in a market where the brand is not yet well known, not just working warm or referred accounts.
• Strong instincts for content and thought leadership; able to shape the story and positioning that earn attention with senior client audiences, and to brief others to produce it.
• Campaign and ABM thinking: comfortable designing targeted, account-based programmes that combine outbound, events and marketing to open and progress high-value opportunities.
