We're looking for a detail-oriented, proactive, and tech-savvy Ad Operations Team Lead to help establish our new AdOps team in Toronto.

This is a foundational role - you'll be the first team member and play a key part in supporting the formation of a 6-person AdOps team. You'll collaborate with leadership and HR to support hiring, shape operational workflows, and eventually lead the day-to-day operations and development of the team.

• Contribute to the development of team documentation, workflows, and operational standards.
• Provide guidance and informal mentorship as the team grows.

Campaign Management & Execution

• Manage the full lifecycle of digital ad campaigns - setup, trafficking, tagging, QA, monitoring, troubleshooting, optimization, and reporting.
• Tackle delivery and pacing challenges with agility, ensuring campaigns meet performance goals and client expectations.

Optimization & Performance

• Analyze campaign performance data (e.g., CTR, viewability, conversions) and apply insights to improve outcomes.
• Identify operational inefficiencies and suggest improvements that scale across the team.
• Work closely with internal account management teams to align on client objectives and delivery success.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Act as a key operational contact for internal stakeholders, ensuring alignment across campaign planning and execution.

What will you bring to the team?

• 4–6 years of experience in digital advertising operations, media execution, or ad tech.
• Deep hands-on experience with major DSPs and ad servers (e.g., DV360, The Trade Desk, CM360, Innovid).
• Strong understanding of tagging, tracking pixels, QA, and trafficking best practices.
• Comfortable working independently and building structure in a fast-paced, scaling environment.
• Experience mentoring or guiding junior team members is a strong asset.
• Excellent communication skills, analytical thinking, and a proactive mindset.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines with precision.
• You connect with our values:
  • Relentless Customer Focus: You put customers at the heart of everything, building strong relationships, understanding customers needs, and making decisions that keep their perspective front and center.
  • Act Today, Not Tomorrow: You make smart decisions quickly, prioritize action over perfection, and keep things moving forward, even when things aren't 100% clear.
  • Obsess About Outcomes: You're outcome-driven, take ownership of your results, and work through challenges to deliver what really matters.
  • Evolve Through Change: You're adaptable, curious, and see change as a chance to learn and improve. You evolve your skills to keep up and push ahead.
  • Human-driven, Powered by AI: While we use AI to drive performance, it's our people who make the real difference. You bring empathy, collaboration, and a love of learning to everything you do.

• Growth Opportunity: Help build a new team from the ground up, with room to shape and grow into a senior leadership role
• Resources & Training: Access to global best practices, cutting-edge tools, and mentorship
