This role will work closely with the revenue lead to drive day-to-day execution across product, tech, finance, legal, and external partners, ensuring seamless operations, faster go-to-market, and sustained revenue growth.

• Own program timelines, track deliverables, and ensure on-time launches of monetization features and GTM initiatives
• Act as the central POC to align internal teams and external stakeholders

1. Partner & Stakeholder Management

• Manage day-to-day relationships with external partners (search providers, aggregators, demand partners)
• Coordinate onboarding, integrations, and ongoing performance tracking with partners
• Ensure smooth communication, issue resolution, and optimization cycles

1. Monetization Operations & Optimization

• Monitor performance across O&O platforms and supply channels, identifying gaps and optimization opportunities
• Work closely with analytics and product teams to improve yield, fill rates, and revenue efficiency
• Support experimentation frameworks (A/B tests, new formats, pricing models)

1. GTM & Platform Enablement Support

• Assist in executing GTM strategies for search and performance monetization offerings
• Support rollout and operations of self-serve / partner platforms
• Coordinate across teams to ensure readiness for launches (product, legal, finance, billing, reporting)

1. Process Building & Scalability

• Build and streamline operational processes across partner onboarding, reporting, billing, and compliance
• Identify inefficiencies and implement scalable solutions to support rapid growth
• Maintain documentation, playbooks, and SOPs for repeatable execution

1. Commercial & Financial Coordination

• Work with Finance on billing, invoicing, revenue reconciliation, and forecasting inputs
• Support commercial discussions with data, reporting, and performance insights
• Ensure alignment on contracts, commercials, and compliance requirements

What We’re Looking For

• 5–7 years of experience in program management, business operations, partnerships, or monetization roles (preferably in ad-tech, search, or performance marketing)
• Strong ability to manage cross-functional stakeholders and drive execution in a fast-paced environment
• High ownership mindset with attention to detail and problem-solving ability
• Comfort working with data, dashboards, and performance metrics
• Excellent communication and organizational skills
• Familiarity with search monetization, performance marketing, or ad-tech ecosystems is a strong plus

Why This Role Matters

This role is critical to translating strategy into reality. You’ll be directly enabling the scale-up of a high-impact revenue pillar, working at the intersection of product, partnerships, and monetization — with clear visibility into business outcomes and growth.
