Job description

Our client is a global sports and media organization with the mission to inspire and connect people everywhere through the power of sports. Built around five professional sports leagues, the organization has established a major international presence with games and programming available in 215 countries and territories, in more than 50 languages, and merchandise sold in more than 200 countries and territories across all seven continents.

Position Summary

Reporting to the Ad Solutions leadership team within Global Media Operations, this temporary but business‑critical role provides direct support for digital ad trafficking and troubleshooting across all owned‑and‑operated digital properties. This individual will assume responsibility for the initial setup, QA, launch, and early‑stage monitoring of digital ad campaigns to ensure continuity during a team member’s leave. Once a campaign goes live, day‑to‑day ownership transitions to other internal teams; however, any serving or delivery issues will elevate back to Ad Solutions. The role requires strong foundational knowledge of digital ad trafficking and ad‑serving systems.

• Troubleshoot ad‑serving issues using Google Ad Manager, FreeWheel, Charles Proxy, and Chrome Developer Tools.
• Conduct daily oversight of programmatic campaigns to confirm pacing, delivery accuracy, and technical compliance within GAM.
• Manage workflow and project‑based tasks in JIRA within an Agile environment; track deadlines, elevate blockers promptly, and support recurring monthly operational tasks.
• Maintain active communication with internal product, engineering, and cross‑functional teams to address issues efficiently and ensure seamless campaign execution.

Required Skills / Knowledge

• Strong proficiency in Google Ad Manager (GAM).
• Solid background in digital ad trafficking across display, banner, video, and programmatic formats.
• Troubleshooting expertise with Charles Proxy and Chrome Developer Tools.
• Ability to monitor and analyze programmatic delivery within ad‑serving platforms.
• Experience working in Agile environments and managing tasks in JIRA (preferred).
• Exceptional attention to detail and strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to operate in a fast‑paced environment with tight deadlines and ongoing changes.
• Must be organized, proactive, and comfortable escalating issues quickly and clearly.
• Must be able to work effectively within a team environment.

Experience Needed

• 2+ years of digital ad operations or ad trafficking experience.
• Digital ad experience strongly preferred.

Educational Background Required

• Undergraduate college degree preferred.

In‑office Tuesday through Thursday; Fridays remote unless on‑site support is required. Must be able to report to the office as needed for technical or operational issues.
