Candidate Requirements

• Proven ability to personally generate and close significant new business deals.
• Experience in building, coaching, or leading high-performing sales teams.

• Familiarity with PPC, lead generation, affiliate marketing, mobile user acquisition, or programmatic advertising is highly desirable.
• Skilled in pipeline management, forecasting, and CRM tools.
• Capable of balancing strategic vision with hands-on daily execution.
