Senior Sales Manager
About The Position
Verve is seeking a New York City-based seller to win new app advertisers and grow Dataseat’s presence across NYC agencies. Dataseat is a privacy-first, ID-less contextual performance DSP focused on user acquisition, with expertise in mobile UA across iOS and Android and contextual advertising across CTV. Its optimization focuses on outcomes beyond installs, including paid subscriptions and purchases. This is an in-market, relationship-led role. The Senior Sales Manager owns new-logo business from the first meeting through campaign launch and initial testing, working through an end-to-end sales cycle and coordinating hand-off to Growth and Customer Success. The role reports to the Head of Sales and involves representing Dataseat in person at agency offices, client meetings, industry events, and on stage. The position uses a hybrid work environment based at the NYC office; Greater NY-area employees within a 90-minute one-way commute are expected in the office three days per week.

- 5+ years selling in the DSP or performance marketing space.
- A strong grasp of the mobile media landscape.

- Relationships across both holding company agencies and independent performance agencies.
- A working understanding of mobile user acquisition, including how UA teams set goals, buy media, and evaluate partners.

Nice To Haves
- Experience with iOS user acquisition and privacy-era measurement such as SKAdNetwork.

Responsibilities
- Prospect and close new app advertisers and launch their first Dataseat campaigns.
- Build and deepen relationships across holding company agencies and independent performance agencies.
- Run the full sales cycle, including discovery, pitching, test design, launch, and hand-off to Growth and Customer Success teams.
- Partner with mobile measurement partners and other measurement partners to co-sell and design clean, credible tests.
- Represent Dataseat at industry events, conferences, and networking dinners, including speaking on panels and stages.
