The Role

Simply put, your mission is to sell new subscriptions for Ceros and upsell new business units within our existing publisher partners. On that mission, you will be expected to identify, negotiate, and close deals with publishers in order to meet and exceed monthly, quarterly, and annual quotas in an assigned publisher vertical. Prospecting, running client meetings and conducting meticulous follow-up are some of the activities you will lead for the company. As a New Business Director, you will be paired with a dedicated SDR and you will work closely with them, our sales leaders, and other team members. You should be wildly ambitious, talented and passionate in all that you do; you should live to sell, and love to evangelize disruptive technology products you believe in. 

Ultimately, you should take ownership and responsibility for hitting key activity metrics, prospecting, and closing sales. Be your own CEO, own your business, be empowered, and win!
