TL;DR

Fast-growing measurement company looking for a Sr. Director/VP of Sales based in LA. You'll drive revenue growth, forge key agency partnerships, and shape our digital media strategy while reporting directly to the CEO.

Who we are

Adelaide is the leader in one of the fastest-growing areas of digital advertising: attention metrics. 

Since 2020, we’ve been a trusted measurement partner for 40% of Fortune 50 companies. They rely on our metric, AU, to maximize the effectiveness of media spend. AU is “the attention economy's most widely recognized metric,” according to Adweek, and we swept the measurement category in the 2024 Adexchanger awards.

Our business is growing rapidly—we’ve doubled revenue in just 18 months and grew our team by 45% last year. Earlier this year, in partnership with The New York Times, we launched Adelaide for Publishers, the next step in our vision to create a more fair and equitable marketplace for media.

Adelaide is backed by prominent investors such as Human Ventures (Joe Marchese), Aperiam Ventures (Joe Zawadzki & Eric Franchi), WGI (Jonah Goodhart), and Irwin Gotlieb.

While we have an office in NYC, we’re very remote-friendly and support flexible work arrangements. 

How we operate

We are a team of action-oriented doers; management rolls up their sleeves to contribute daily. Our culture is rooted in curiosity and loosely held but rigorously vetted opinions; everyone is encouraged to contribute to planning and strategy.

This is a sales leadership position that takes an “open for business 24/7 mindset and willingness to work during inconvenient times if required” (as Michael Katz put it).

Position Overview

Day-to-day activities range from engaging with agency and brand leadership and leading pitch processes to collaborating with executive peers and maintaining CRM accuracy. 

We’re seeking a candidate with 8+ years of sales experience (including 4-6 years in adtech, measurement, or media analytics), strong relationships with key agency holding groups and deep understanding of programmatic media.

This fully remote role requires you to be based in Los Angeles. You’ll be expected to meet with clients in person several times per week and travel to our New York office a few times per year to connect with colleagues.

  • A large network of investors and advisors for you to access that will help your team succeed
