• An understanding of how agencies evaluate media partners, manage advertiser portfolios, and make campaign and budget decisions.

• Strong 3rd party measurement tool expertise. E.g. Northbeam, Triplewhale, Fospha, Workmagic, Measured.
• Experience building processes, playbooks, or programs that make cross‑functional teams more effective.
• Strong presentation and communication skills, including experience leading client conversations, training sessions, or partner enablement.
