In this role, you will work closely with the client services team to ensure campaigns are executed efficiently, optimized for performance, and delivered seamlessly from start to finish. As a Mogl trader, you will play a key role in building and deepening relationships with our clients—bringing a local presence to a team known for high-touch service.

This role is ideal for a proactive, relationship-driven individual who thrives on collaboration, problem-solving, and helping clients achieve measurable success.

One of the fastest-growing companies in North America, Mogl delivers performance-driven consulting across the world’s leading media and data platforms. We are guided by a values-driven culture and powered by a team of curious, persistent, and selfless professionals who collaborate to achieve ambitious, measurable outcomes. Based in Denver, CO and consistently recognized as a Top Place to Work, Mogl provides meaningful opportunities where team members thrive through challenging and rewarding work.

WHO YOU ARE

• 5–7 years of experience in programmatic advertising, preferably at a DSP (e.g., The Trade Desk, DV360, Basis, StackAdapt) or within a performance-focused agency or brand.
• Deep familiarity with The Trade Desk platform, including campaign architecture, audience strategy, and optimization levers.
• Experience running retail media campaigns across major platforms (Amazon, Walmart, Target, etc.) with fluency in retail-specific metrics: ROAS, TACoS, NTB, and retail attribution.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to translate performance data into actionable strategy; proficient in Excel and comfortable building dashboards and custom reports.
• Confident, polished communicator—equally at ease in executive client conversations as in internal strategy sessions.
• Collaborative by nature, with a track record of working cross-functionally with sales, account management, and media teams to drive client growth.
• Self-directed and detail-oriented, able to manage a high-volume book of business without sacrificing quality or strategic thinking.

• Serve as a senior strategic partner to retail accounts, owning the relationship and driving long-term growth.
• Deliver clear, insight-driven performance narratives in client calls, QBRs, and strategic reviews.
• Partner with Sales on upsell, expansion, and new business opportunities.
• Available to travel and meet with clients in person to provide education and support as needed, with a minimum of one trip per quarter.

Performance & Reporting

• Build and maintain custom dashboards and reporting frameworks tailored to each client's KPIs.
• Analyze performance data and translate findings into media strategy and budget recommendations.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with internal traders, programmatic specialists, and account managers to align on strategy and execution.
• Contribute to the development of client services playbooks, best practices, and process documentation that elevate the broader team.
