Digital Matter • New York, NY

14d • $180,000 - $260,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Digital Matter is a next-generation growth and transformation partner built for the realities of today’s market. We combine the pace and precision of a startup with the discipline and rigor of a global advisory firm. We help consumer brands manage media as a strategic asset class, with the same intentionality and governance applied to capital allocation. By connecting data, technology, and creative, we turn media investment into measurable enterprise value: accelerating growth, improving efficiency, and building durable capabilities. Over the past seven years, we’ve guided organizations through IPOs, digital turnarounds, and successful exits. Our point of view is simple: when media is managed as capital, it becomes a catalyst for transformation at scale.

Digital Matter is seeking a Vice President of Integrated Biddable Media to lead the strategy, evolution, and delivery of our biddable capability across paid social, paid search, programmatic, retail media, and emerging auction-based channels. This is a senior leadership role for someone who can combine deep media expertise with enterprise-level judgment, commercial ownership, and a strong point of view on how data, technology, creativity, and measurement should work together. You will partner with senior client leaders and cross-functional teams to turn business priorities into integrated growth strategies. You will also build the operating systems, talent, standards, and partner ecosystem required to deliver high-quality work at speed and scale.

Requirements

• Significant leadership experience in biddable or performance media, with accountability for complex client portfolios, teams, and business outcomes.
• Deep expertise in paid social and strong working knowledge across paid search, programmatic, retail media, commerce, and emerging auction-based formats.
• A track record of connecting specialist channel excellence to integrated communications, customer, and growth strategies.
• Credibility with senior client executives and the ability to communicate complex technical, commercial, and measurement issues with clarity.
• Strong commercial judgment, including experience with revenue, pricing, staffing, margin, partner economics, and scope management.
• Practical fluency in experimentation, incrementality, attribution, modeling, first-party data, privacy-aware activation, and platform measurement.
• Experience scaling operating models, automation, or AI-enabled workflows while maintaining human oversight, quality, and accountability.
• Demonstrated success building leadership teams, developing talent, managing performance, and creating succession plans.
• The ability to lead through ambiguity, make informed decisions without perfect information, and adjust quickly as evidence changes.
• A collaborative leadership style grounded in transparency, ownership, curiosity, and respect for functional expertise.

Responsibilities

• Direct integrated biddable strategy across paid social, paid search, programmatic, retail media, and emerging channels, with clear roles for each channel in the customer journey.
• Turn client business priorities into actionable audience, investment, creative, data, platform, and measurement decisions.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to senior clients. Bring a point of view, show the evidence, name the tradeoffs, and recommend a path forward.
• Guide planning, activation, optimization, and measurement through channel leaders and specialists, ensuring the work reflects the strategy and meets a consistent quality bar.

• Connect biddable teams to strategy, creative, commerce, CRM, analytics, and brand media so integration changes the work, not just the meeting cadence.

• Advance practical uses of automation and AI that improve speed, quality, or insight, with clear human ownership and controls.
