Your projects will often span offices, time zones, and hemispheres. It's your job to coordinate the players and keep them up to date on progress and deadlines.
As the Program Manager, you will drive key business outcomes that will help drive automation for advertisers and meet advertiser needs. You will partner closely with the engineering, product, UX, gTech and Sales leads to understand and strategically manage complex workstreams that impact program alignment and in-flight execution.
