What You’ll Bring
- 3–5 years of experience in business development or sales, including 1–2 years in digital advertising, media, or ad-tech (ad network, SSP, DSP, or exchange).
- Understanding of digital advertising models and publisher monetization.
- Proven ability to build relationships and support deal execution.
- Strong analytical, presentation, and communication skills.
- Native-level Japanese and business-level English required.
- Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets, PowerPoint, and Word.
