Title: Associate Director - Product
Location - Remote (must be either UK or EU)
Salary: €110k - €140k
Experience: Strong product leadership background with deep knowledge of programmatic advertising or digital media trading.
We’re representing a high-growth performance marketing group in the iGaming space making a bold pivot: the creation of their own proprietary programmatic trading platform. This new product will give advertisers direct access to audiences through a transparent, real-time marketplace - extending well beyond the company’s core sector.
This is not about maintaining an existing system. It’s about inventing, from the ground up, a commercially viable platform that could redefine how advertisers buy and optimise media in this space.
What You’ll Do
* Lead the vision and roadmap for a new programmatic marketplace platform.
* Translate commercial objectives into product design, delivery, and scale.
* Work with engineering, data, and design teams to build an advertiser-facing platform with real-time bidding functionality.
* Shape revenue models across CPM, CPC, CPA, and hybrid deals.
* Build the go-to-market strategy: onboarding advertisers, activating first-party data, and carving out competitive differentiation.
* Operate both strategically and hands-on to launch a live beta within 6–9 months.
What We Think You’ll Need
* Strong background in adtech, martech, or digital product leadership.
* Commercial instincts: you understand both product build and revenue levers.
* Experience bringing complex, data-driven products or marketplaces to life.
* Ability to influence across technical, commercial, and executive teams.
* Curiosity, ambition, and resilience to deliver a first-of-its-kind platform.
The Package
* €110,000–€140,000 base (DOE)
* Up to 25% performance bonus
* Potential equity participation in future spin-out
* Private health insurance, travel allowance, flexible/hybrid working
What Success Looks Like
* Beta platform launched in 6–9 months
* First non-core campaigns delivered in Year 1
* 20% of platform revenue from new verticals by end of Year 1
