We are the JustWatch Group. We love movies and TV shows and connect audiences with their favourite content across three divisions: JustWatch The Streaming Guide, JustWatch Media and our own streaming service, JustWatch TV.
JustWatch is the world’s largest global streaming guide, with 50 million monthly active users, helping millions of people discover what to watch and where to watch movies, TV shows and sports across their favourite theatrical exhibitors and streaming services.

Negotiate annual Upfront agreements, joint business plans and strategic advertising commitments that secure agency investment in JWTV.
Grow JWTV's share of agency advertising budgets, with a focus on non-entertainment brands across automotive, FMCG, retail, finance and other categories.
Develop agency-specific growth plans, manage your commercial pipeline and deliver against partnership revenue targets.
What We're Looking For
Strong experience in agency partnerships, media sales or CTV and digital video advertising.
An established network of senior agency investment and trading decision-makers.
Proven experience negotiating significant agency-level advertising agreements, ideally including annual Upfront commitments.
