You know how programmatic works, and you want to do more with it than just book campaigns. With us you get the chance to build on your first experience, get to know new channels and shape our digital media operation from the inside: operational, hands-on, and with a clear mandate to make our processes smarter and more efficient through AI.

You manage our programmatic video, CTV, online video and paid social campaigns, and at the same time develop a real understanding of how AI tools can automate the way we work. You are someone who gets things done, thinks ahead and wants to build something.

You do not need to know every channel already. What you do not know, you learn here, on live campaigns with real budget. If you see that something is not working, you change it and test new approaches.
