About the role

We’re looking for a Programmatic Strategy Manager to join the global programmatic team within team x, Omnicom’s newly created integrated worldwide agency team.

team x brings together luxury marketing, creativity, intelligent planning, data and technology to create progressive, integrated experiences for a truly global automotive brand.

As part of the global programmatic team, you’ll act as a programmatic advisory partner, supporting regional and local teams across multiple markets to deliver best-in-class programmatic campaigns.

You’ll play an important role in developing global governance, best-practice guidance and thought leadership, while identifying and testing innovative opportunities across areas such as CTV, Audio, digital out-of-home and luxury audiences.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced programmatic professional who combines strong technical expertise with strategic thinking and a genuine curiosity about what’s next in digital media.

What you’ll be doing

• Work as part of the global Display & Video team to deliver high-quality projects and outputs across multiple workstreams.
• Lead and support global innovation projects, developing strategic recommendations and best-practice guidance across programmatic opportunities.
• Explore emerging channels, luxury audience strategies, cutting-edge innovations and market maturity opportunities.
• Provide guidance to regional and local teams on how to plan and activate effective programmatic campaigns.
• Work closely with global, regional and local stakeholders to communicate project progress, build engagement and generate buy-in for upcoming pilots.
• Collaborate with teams across Search, Paid Social, Audience Solutions, Dynamic Experience, Mixed Reality, Ad Tech and Governance to identify opportunities for cross-channel innovation.
• Stay ahead of industry developments and proactively identify new technologies, platforms and opportunities to test.
• Share knowledge and best practice with the wider OMD EMEA Performance community, helping to develop programmatic capability across the agency.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone with strong end-to-end programmatic experience who is excited by innovation, strategy and the opportunity to work on a truly global account.

You’ll ideally have:

• In-depth and up-to-date knowledge of the programmatic ecosystem and publisher landscape.
• Proven experience managing programmatic campaigns end-to-end, from responding to briefs and campaign planning through to activation, optimisation and reporting.
• Experience working across different KPIs, channels and DSPs.
• A track record of identifying innovative opportunities and turning strategic recommendations into actionable client pilots.
• A genuine interest in emerging areas of programmatic and the ability to independently research new opportunities.
• Hands-on experience troubleshooting campaign issues, including delivery and pacing, PMPs, creative rejections and pixel implementation.
• Experience with brand safety and ad verification tools such as DoubleVerify and IAS, including implementation, reporting and optimisation.
• Strong PowerPoint and Excel skills, with the confidence to present to both internal teams and clients.
• Excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively.
• The ability to work autonomously while also contributing to a collaborative and growing team.
• A creative, solutions-focused approach to solving business challenges.
• The ability to take complex programmatic concepts and explain them clearly to clients and colleagues.
