  • Voice of the customer

Act as the conduit between EMEA client-facing teams, the Head of Ad Experiences Product & GTM, Global P&E, and other internal support teams.

Build the frameworks to track and measure the adoption of native home screen ad products. Capture advertiser feedback and own the process of delivering market intelligence to the Native TV Ad Formats Product Lead and Global P&E to inform the product roadmap.

  • Holistic “All Samsung” go-to-market

Contribute to a unified Samsung Ads value proposition that positions native home screen formats as part of a comprehensive media ecosystem.

Work closely with the Head of Ad Experiences Product & GTM to ensure consistency of narrative and positioning across the Ad Experiences domain.

  • Sales enablement and partnership

Drive consistency and clarity in how EMEA talks about native home screen ad products and solutions. Build and maintain high-quality sales materials including pitch decks, one-pagers, narrative frameworks, product documents, FAQs, objection handling guides, and vertical-specific collateral. Maintain a strong relationship and tight feedback loop with the sales organisation to identify market friction points, training gaps, product issues, and collateral needs in real time.

  • Thought leadership

Be the subject matter expert for native home screen formats and CTV advertising in EMEA. Maintain a deep understanding of Samsung’s product capabilities, broader industry trends, and the competitive landscape, and create materials that educate client-facing teams on key topics within the native and connected TV advertising space.

To be successful, you will possess the following skills and attributes:

  • 7+ years of experience in sales enablement, product marketing, go-to-market strategy, or a related role within the ad tech or advertising industry.

  • Proven track record of end-to-end ownership of bringing products to market - managing product testing, developing value propositions and positioning, and working with Finance, Yield, and Operations teams to ensure appropriate pricing and processes are in place.

  • Exceptional storytelling, writing, and presentation skills with the ability to translate complex products and data into compelling sales collateral and content.

  • Deep understanding of CTV and connected TV advertising - how it is bought, sold, and measured in EMEA markets.

  • Experience building effective working relationships cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Analytics, Pricing, Design, Partnerships, Legal, and Operations teams.

  • Excellent organisational and project management skills, strong attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
