The Ad Operations Specialist is a functional role within the EMEA Operations Department ultimately responsible for managing EMEA GumGum’s clients’ advertising campaigns. This role works with mainly internal teams and occasionally external client stakeholders and therefore a successful AdOPS specialist needs to possess good organizational and communication skills as well as knowledge of ad technology.

The Adops specialist works closely with local Account Management Team and the PSM to ensure that the AdOps Team in EMEA is providing an industry leading campaign performance to GumGum’s Buyers, as well as identifying upsell opportunities and passing these along to client facing teams. Simultaneously, the AdOps specialist is expected to work with other internal teams (Client Strategy Team, Product/ Engineering, Design, Technical Solutions) in EMEA and the wider GumGum organization to lead and deliver a seamless campaign experience to GumGum clients.

Note: GumGum currently operates in a ‘work from home’ virtual environment with sporadic opportunities for in-person business and morale events (health guidelines permitting). There will not be any requirement to go into the office on a daily basis moving forward.
