We sit at the intersection of premium sports inventory, real-time data, and programmatic media.
THE ROLE:
We are hiring a Vice President of Sales to build and lead our Brands Direct business. You will own our relationships with two overlapping groups of advertisers: brands that buy media in-house, with their own programmatic, social, CTV, and trading teams, and the largest 100 brand advertisers in the country, where we work alongside our agency sales teams to drive an integrated client motion.

Personally lead the most strategic brand-direct deals, discovery, ideation, pitch, negotiation, and contracting at the CMO / Head of Media level.
Build the segmentation: which brands are pure in-house, which are agency-led, which are hybrid, and how Genius shows up for each.
Translate our Moments framework; Pre-Game anticipation, Real-Time In-Game, Post-Game sentiment, into brand-side narratives anchored on audience, outcomes, brand lift, and creative effectiveness.
Coordinate with the agency sales team on the top 100 brands
Partner with the holding-company and agency sales VPs (WPP, Omnicom, Publicis, Dentsu, and independents) to drive a coordinated motion against the largest 100 brand advertisers.
Co-own joint account plans for the top 100 brands: clear ownership of brand-side relationships, will collaborating on joint pitches and joint commercial proposals.
Serve as the brand-side voice in pricing, packaging, and creative discussions, making sure our offer lands with marketers, not just media buyers.
Run a tight cross-team operating cadence with the agency VPs so handoffs are clean, credit is shared, and the customer experience is seamless.
