What You'll Do:

As an Agency Partner on Criteo’s UK Performance Media team, you will grow new business across UK holding companies and independent agencies. You will lead with Criteo’s Commerce Intelligence—the commerce signals, audiences and activation capabilities that help advertisers make media more relevant and measurable—and shape the right route to market for each brief.
Depending on the advertiser’s objective and buying setup, you will bring that value to market through and open consultative approach. You solve agency and advertiser needs, rather than lead with a single product or buying path.

• Build a UK agency new-business plan across HoldCos and independents, mapping senior partnerships, local agency teams, client opportunities, planning and investment cycles, and priority verticals.
• Develop trusted relationships across agency leadership and the practitioners who shape briefs, planning, investment, activation, commerce and retail media. Turn global or HoldCo-level relationships into locally actionable UK opportunities.
• Prospect, qualify and win new advertiser investment. Connect Criteo’s commerce data and intelligence to client objectives, including customer acquisition and retention, sales growth, audience strategy, incrementality and measurable media outcomes.
• Recommend and position the appropriate solution and activation path: performance campaigns through Commerce Growth; commerce audiences and curated supply through Commerce Grid; or eligible third-party SSP activation through a buyer’s preferred DSP. Bring in product and activation specialists to validate fit, availability, measurement and delivery before making commitments.
• Own the full new-business cycle, from discovery and brief development through solution design, proposal, commercial negotiation and close. Build a clear plan to first spend and a high-quality handoff to the teams responsible for activation and ongoing account success.
• Orchestrate Criteo’s internal teams—including Commerce Growth, Commerce Grid, 3P SSP/curation, activation, operations, product, retail media and global account partners—to make agency plans executable and remove blockers quickly.
• Build durable HoldCo and agency partnerships through joint business planning, senior engagement, relevant thought leadership and repeatable activation opportunities.
• Deliver against quarterly and annual new-business goals. Maintain accurate Salesforce pipeline, account plans and forecasts, with clear stages, values, close dates, next steps, owners and risks.
• Share market feedback and successful approaches with the wider team, helping sharpen vertical playbooks, agency propositions and routes to market.

Who You Are:

• You have a track record of winning new business in AdTech, digital media, commerce media or a media agency, ideally working across UK HoldCos and independent agencies.
• You have a strong UK agency network (preference for OMG) and can build credibility with both senior decision-makers and hands-on planners, buyers and activation teams.
• You can connect commerce signals, audiences and media activation to business outcomes, and confidently discuss performance measures such as ROAS, incremental sales, new-customer growth and reach.
• You are comfortable with consultative, multi-stakeholder selling and can navigate complex commercial, technical and operational conversations without losing ownership of the opportunity.
• You understand agency media planning and buying cycles, and can identify where Criteo can add value across performance, programmatic, commerce and retail media strategies.
• You are commercially analytical: you qualify opportunities rigorously, manage a dependable pipeline and use evidence to shape recommendations and forecasts.
• You communicate and present clearly, tailoring proposals and stories to the audience—from agency leadership to client teams—and can open doors at multiple levels.
• You are collaborative, resilient and accountable, working at pace while bringing the right internal partners in early to help opportunities launch successfully.
• You are fluent in English. Experience with Commerce Growth, Commerce Grid, curated audiences, CTV or third-party SSP activation is an advantage.
