About the Role
Unity's advertising platform reaches billions of consumers monthly. We are expanding our UK Agency and Brand Partnerships team and seeking a driven Sales Executive to manage a portfolio of agency and brand accounts in the UK market. This individual contributor role involves building relationships, executing a structured sales process, and closing programmatic and managed service deals, with a focus on becoming the go-to Unity representative in the UK.
Responsibilities
- Own a named portfolio of agency holding company offices, independent agencies, and brand direct accounts across the UK.
- Carry a quarterly and annual revenue quota and consistently work to achieve it.
- Run a structured sales process from first contact to close: prospecting and qualification, needs discovery, proposal and media plan development, deal negotiation, and revenue expansion within existing accounts.
- Build working relationships across your patch — with media planners, programmatic traders, investment leads, and digital strategists — so Unity is included in planning conversations.
- Present and position Unity's advertising solutions clearly and consultatively: managed service campaigns, PMPs, Programmatic Guaranteed deals, and Audience Hub data activations, matched to client KPIs and buying infrastructure.
- Respond to agency RFPs with well-crafted, insight-led proposals.
- Lead pitches and client meetings with confidence.
- Keep account plans current: document key contacts, map spend pools, track open opportunities, and flag expansion potential.
- Represent Unity at industry events and use market presence to grow your network and pipeline.
- Collaborate with internal teams — account management, solutions, and marketing — to deliver for clients and feed insights back into the business.
Requirements
- Experience in programmatic, mobile, or digital advertising sales, with a track record of meeting or exceeding revenue targets.
- Existing relationships with UK agency planners, traders, or brand teams.
- Solid working knowledge of how programmatic deals are bought and structured: DSPs, SSPs, PMPs, open auction, and managed service.
- Experience running a full sales cycle independently, from prospecting through close.
- Direct, hands-on experience selling in-app, mobile gaming, and programmatic advertising.
- Strong communication skills — clear in writing, confident in meetings, credible in a pitch.
- Organised and self-directed; able to manage a pipeline and prioritise without close supervision.
- Based in or willing to relocate to London.
- Comfortable being in-market with clients regularly.
- CTV advertising experience.
- Familiarity with brand-performance convergence, retail media, or commerce media buying.
- Experience at a mobile SSP, DSP, or ad network.
- Sufficient knowledge of English for professional verbal and written exchanges.
