This role sits in Los Angeles driving our growth strategy across the Publicis Groupe ecosystem. As an Account Executive dedicated to Publicis, you will act as the primary strategic commercial partner across Publicis agencies (including Zenith, Starcom, Spark Foundry, Digitas, and PMX) and brand direct clients.

This team is responsible for driving our advertiser-first strategy and accelerating revenue growth through strategic agency partnerships.

You will take full accountability for managing the complete commercial lifecycle, from navigating complex agency trading desks to delivering consultative pitches and driving ongoing campaign performance.

Success in this role means achieving regional revenue targets, deepening partner adoption across CTV, online video (OLV), display, and programmatic solutions, and maximizing client renewal rates.

What You'll Do

Commercial Growth & Account Ownership

Identify and close high-potential revenue opportunities to grow our market footprint across Publicis agencies and brand-direct accounts.

Navigate and establish deep, multi-threaded relationships across complex Publicis structures-from trading desks (PMX/APEX) and planning teams to executive leadership.

Educate agency partners and brand clients on Teads' cutting-edge offerings across CTV, OLV, digital display, and programmatic advertising.

Consultative Strategy & Solution Alignment

Align Teads' omnichannel product portfolio with the evolving business needs of Publicis prospects and clients to deliver tailored, high-impact campaign solutions.

Partner seamlessly with internal cross-functional teams-including Insights, Customer Experience, and Technical Solutions-to execute flawless campaigns and optimize client satisfaction.

Pipeline Management & Operational Excellence

Maintain a disciplined, accurate sales pipeline and pipeline hygiene within internal CRM systems to ensure precision in revenue forecasting.

Review and analyze key operational and campaign inputs-such as RFPs, trade agreement margins, and performance metrics-to optimize account growth and renewal rates.

What Will You Bring to the Team?

Core Experience

3-5 years of proven digital media sales experience, ideally focused on video, CTV, or programmatic channels.

Agency Network & Domain Expertise

Strong existing network across Publicis Groupe agencies (e.g., Zenith, Starcom, Spark Foundry, Digitas) and direct advertiser contacts, paired with a solid understanding of CTV, OLV, digital display, and programmatic buying.

Communication Skills

Excellent written, verbal, and presentation capabilities, with demonstrated skill in negotiating and influencing key agency and brand decision-makers.

Proactive, collaborative, and self-directed approach with comfort navigating a fast-moving, rapidly evolving adtech landscape.
