Description
Overview
Motorsport Network is the world’s largest independent motorsport and automotive media company, connecting more than 42 million fans every month through brands including Autosport, Motorsport.com, Motor1, and InsideEVs.
At a time of transformation and growth in global motorsport and media, we’re redefining how racing stories are told, blending Autosport’s 75-year legacy of trusted journalism with data, digital innovation, and storytelling technology.
The Director of Sales Programmatic will be tasked with driving programmatic revenue for Motorsport Network. This role is responsible for creating new relationships with DSPs, Agency PBUs (Programmatic Buying Units), and brand teams in the UK and EU markets. This is a commercial role, not an ad operations position. The successful candidate will combine programmatic expertise with strong commercial relationships with media buyers. This is an opportunity to join a global programmatic business at a company with scale, substantial brand equity, and a uniquely passionate audience. The Programmatic Account Executive will play a key role on the Commercial team to help Motorsport Network monetize its platforms.
