About Nexxen
Nexxen is seeking a commercially driven, sales-minded Director of Programmatic Partnerships (Sales) to join our Exchange team. This is a hybrid role blending sales hunting and business development, with a clear focus on driving incremental spend from DSPs, their buyers, and strategic channel partners through incentives, deal activation, open auction SPO, and other commercial growth strategies.
You will be responsible for uncovering new opportunities, structuring and closing deals, and expanding Nexxen’s footprint across both established and emerging DSP partners, including Amazon, The Trade Desk, DV360, StackAdapt, Viant, and others. The role will also focus on developing and expanding a pipeline of strategic channel partners, including programmatic resellers, curation partners, and other demand aggregators that can unlock new revenue streams and extend Nexxen’s market reach.
This is not a typical agency sales role. You’ll be selling into DSP organizations, engaging directly with their buyers and seats, and cultivating channel partnerships that drive scalable demand. Success depends on deep ecosystem knowledge, commercial creativity, strong relationship-building skills, and a relentless focus on revenue growth.
This role will be based in the NY or Chicago office. Our team follows a hybrid schedule, working in the office three days a week and remotely for the rest.
