Account Manager, Media Partnerships

Location: Remote (except California)
Status: Full-Time

At Marketing Architects, we believe TV advertising is still the most powerful marketing channel. But the typical process for TV is expensive, difficult to scale and to measure. So we flipped the traditional approach on its head and rebuilt the agency model with the client in mind. Today, we're growing a team of talent from across the United States to reimagine how brands advertise on TV.

We’re hiring a Media Partnerships Account Manager to expand our relationships with linear and streaming partners and emerging media platforms. Reporting to the Vice President, Media Partnerships, this role will own high-value publisher and network relationships, manage cross-functional activation and drive inventory growth across Linear TV, OTT, CTV, YouTube, OOH, Digital Audio, Digital Video and more. You’ll be a key player in how we scale strategic media solutions that power client success.

In this role you’ll:

• Champion and own key relationships with streaming and linear partners to strengthen collaboration, enhance performance and drive long-term growth.

• Identify opportunities to optimize and grow existing campaign structures, partnering with stations, networks and publishers to maximize both revenue and cost efficiencies.

• Develop innovative media partner solutions that grant Marketing Architects favor in accessing unique media at advantaged pricing.

• Drive inventory expansion across Linear TV, OTT, CTV, OOH, YouTube, Digital Audio, Digital Video and other emerging platforms.

• Oversee daily publisher and network needs including reporting, partner set-up, billing, bid request monitoring, troubleshooting and general platform inquiries.

We’re seeking someone with experience including:

• 5+ years of experience in partnerships, with knowledge of media platforms and digital media buying.

• Strong relationship-building skills and ability to lead high-level partner conversations.

• Proven track record in publisher negotiations and acquisition strategies.

• Experience with campaign setup, reporting and troubleshooting.

• Collaborative mindset with ability to work cross-functionally across operations, buying and client teams.

Our values:

• Hungry Humble Smart: We seek a trifecta of talent. We take initiative and act with urgency. Look inwards before outwards. Value EQ over IQ.

• Mindset Matters: Success starts between our ears. We face challenges with a calm confidence and pivot quickly. As eternal optimists, we know we are capable of great things and have survived worse. Our best days are always ahead.

• Team Is Hero: We, not me. Being a hero is a team sport and it's the unique talents of many that make us one of a kind. No one person can win the day, but great teams can change the world.

• Rebel Against Ordinary: We reject the ordinary to deliver the extraordinary. We are contrarians by choice. We take the path less chosen and if the way forward isn't clear, we will create it.

• Relentless Learning: We never stop learning. The next book. The next podcast. The next big idea. Driven to broaden what we know. Because the more we discover what we don't, the more exciting the journey becomes.

We offer rewarding careers that encourage growth while providing industry-leading benefits including:

• 100% employer-paid medical, dental and disability, with vision option

• Generous 401(k) matching

• Flexible paid time off, 9 paid holidays plus 2 floating holidays
