Job description

IQM is redefining how modern advertisers navigate complex, highly regulated media environments. Our AI‑driven media buying platform is built to deliver smarter decision making, greater transparency, and real performance at scale where precision matters most. We’re building a team of curious and driven problem solvers who want to shape the future of advertising and do meaningful work alongside people who care deeply about what they build.

IQM is seeking an experienced Senior Customer Success Manager to join our growing Political team. In this role, you’ll sit at the center of some of the most impactful and fast‑moving campaigns in the market, directly managing relationships with political clients across both self serve and managed service models.

You’ll act as a trusted advisor, trainer, and strategic partner to campaigns, agencies, and advocacy groups using programmatic media to reach voters. From onboarding through execution and optimization, you’ll help clients unlock the full value of IQM’s DSP while navigating complex compliance requirements and high stakes timelines. The ideal candidate brings deep programmatic expertise, a strong understanding of political advertising, and a genuine passion for helping clients succeed during critical moments.

This role is hybrid, meaning team members are expected to work one to two days per week in person at one of the office locations in either NY/DC.

At this time, IQM does not sponsor new applicants for employment authorization for this position.

What You’ll Do

Client Management & Success: Serve as the primary point of contact for assigned political accounts across self serve and managed service. Build strong relationships that drive client satisfaction, retention, and growth.

Training & Enablement: Lead onboarding sessions and structured training programs for political clients. Provide ongoing education on platform capabilities, new features, compliance requirements, and best practices.

Campaign Support: Partner with clients on campaign setup, optimization, troubleshooting, and real time adjustments. Support managed service campaigns to ensure delivery, performance, and compliance standards are met.

Strategic Guidance: Act as a subject matter expert in political advertising, advising clients on targeting strategies, inventory across CTV, display, mobile, and OTT, and voter audience segmentation.

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with Ad Operations, Sales, and Product teams to represent client needs, troubleshoot issues, and influence product improvements based on real world feedback.

Retention & Growth: Monitor client health, proactively identify risks, and develop success plans to secure renewals. Identify upsell opportunities to expand platform adoption and deepen partnerships.

Who You Are

• 5+ years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, or Ad Operations.
• Strong background in ad tech, programmatic advertising, and DSP platforms.
• Direct experience supporting political advertising and navigating compliance requirements.
• Experience managing both self serve and managed service clients in fast paced environments.
• Exceptional communication, presentation, and relationship building skills.
• Analytical mindset with the ability to translate campaign data into actionable insights.
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple accounts and deadlines simultaneously.
• Political tech or agency side experience supporting campaigns or advocacy clients.
• Hands on experience training clients on complex SaaS or ad tech platforms.
• Deep familiarity with FEC and state level compliance considerations.
• Experience partnering cross functionally to improve workflows and client outcomes.
