About the Opportunity: 

The Advertising Director, Marketplaces owns paid media performance across Marketplace Advertising and DSP. This is not a pure operator role. We need a leader who builds strategies that drive measurable results, manages and develops a high-performing Ad Support team, and has the commercial instincts to expand client investment in advertising. The right person can make a compelling, data-backed case to a client for more spend, speak confidently to the full funnel, and turn ad performance into a growth story. Strategic involvement scales by account tier: fully hands-on for Tier 1, monthly check-ins for Tier 2, and oversight-only for Tier 3.

What You'll Do:

Team Leadership & Development 

• Recruit, hire, onboard, and retain a high-performing Ad Support team aligned to eAccountable's growth trajectory

• Set clear performance expectations, conduct regular evaluations, and proactively manage performance issues

• Build and execute structured training and development programs that keep the team ahead of the evolving marketplace advertising landscape

• Foster a culture of accountability, urgency, and excellence — consistent with eAccountable's core values

Advertising Strategy & Growth 

• Develop and own comprehensive advertising strategies across Sponsored Ads and DSP that drive client growth and expand eAccountable's revenue

• Align media strategy with each client's broader business objectives, ensuring every dollar spent maps to a measurable outcome

• Identify and act on opportunities to grow client investment in DSP and total ad spend — turning strategy into incremental revenue 

• Stay current on the latest trends, platform updates, and competitive shifts across Amazon Advertising and key marketplace channels 

• Collaborate directly with the VP of Marketplaces to surface and develop business growth opportunities within the advertising practice

Campaign Execution & Oversight 

• Maintain active oversight across all client accounts to ensure campaigns are executing correctly, pacing is on target, and quality standards are upheld

• Lead budget pacing management, targeting strategy, and structured testing plans across the portfolio

• Guide creative needs and asset coordination in partnership with internal creative resources

• Deliver insights for client reporting and internal planning that are data-driven, actionable, and tied to account goals

Data Analysis & Performance Management 

• Analyze advertising data across the portfolio to identify performance gaps, optimization opportunities, and growth levers

• Monitor and evaluate team performance metrics, holding the Ad Support team accountable to execution quality and efficiency standards

• Translate data into clear, confident recommendations — for clients and internal stakeholders alike

Client Growth & Revenue Development 

• Act as a confident, compelling voice to clients on the value of advertising investment — making the case for increased spend with data, strategy, and full-funnel thinking

• Proactively identify opportunities to grow each client's ad budget by demonstrating clear ROI and articulating the business impact of scaling Sponsored Ads and DSP

• Speak fluently to the full advertising funnel — from awareness and consideration through conversion — and connect that story to the client's growth goals

• Partner with account teams to build investment proposals, upsell DSP programs, and frame advertising as a strategic growth lever, not a line-item cost 

• Contribute directly to eAccountable's advertising revenue growth by expanding client relationships and increasing managed ad spend across the portfolio

• Treat every client interaction as an opportunity to deepen trust and expand scope — this role sells through results and relationships

What We’re Looking For:

• 8+ years of hands-on Amazon / Marketplace Advertising experience in an agency environment, including Sponsored Ads and DSP, with a track record of driving measurable client growth
• Proven leadership experience managing and developing advertising or media teams
• A natural growth mindset — you see budget conversations as opportunities, not obstacles, and you know how to make the case for more investment
• Demonstrated ability to communicate full-funnel advertising strategy to clients and influence their investment decisions
• Deep analytical capability — you read data fluently and translate it into strategy without hesitation
• Strong understanding of budget pacing, bid management, targeting strategy, and campaign testing frameworks
• Excellent communicator who can hold a room with client, build an investment case, and coach a junior team member in the same afternoon
• Self-directed, results-obsessed, and energized by building — not just managing

What We Offer:

• Competitive base salary: $120,000-$143,500/year + variable compensation
• Flexible vacation policy – take the time you need to recharge
• Comprehensive health, vision & dental insurance
• 401k with company contribution
• Beautiful downtown Denver office with company-paid commuter benefits (parking or RTD EcoPass) 
• Opportunity for career progression with plenty of room for personal growth

What to Expect:

• 1st Round: 45-minute interview with the Recruiter
• 2nd Round: 45-minute interview with the Hiring Manager
• 3rd Round: Account audit and presentation
• 4th Round: 2 hours of final interviews with the Hiring Team
