Manager, Ad Operations (Demand)

Overview of the role:

The Manager, Ad Operations (Demand), plays a critical role within InMobi’s North America Go-to-Market (GTM) organization, serving as the primary operational bridge between regional Sales teams and our Central Operations headquarters. Often referred to as the “engine room,” Central Operations functions as both the analytical core and operational connective tissue of the company—linking systems, teams, and workflows to ensure flawless execution across our global exchange business.

In this role, you will act as the in-region triage and operational partner for InMobi Exchange, supporting Sales, Client Development, Agency Development, PTD, DPM, and Core Ops teams across time zones. You will be responsible for real-time campaign and deal operations, rapid issue resolution, and proactive data-driven insights that ensure seamless execution and exceptional performance across PMP and Brand IO activity.

This is a highly collaborative, demand-facing operations role suited for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, has deep programmatic expertise, and brings both consultative strength and operational rigor to the table.

The impact you'll make:

• Serve as the primary North America point of contact for all RFP triage, Brand IO setup, audience and deal requests, pacing checks, and creative QA needs.
• Oversee the end-to-end campaign lifecycle, including IO validation, deal configuration, creative troubleshooting, pacing strategy, and KPI monitoring (CTR, VCR, Viewability).
• Monitor PMP and Brand IO performance in real time—identifying anomalies, surfacing insights, and enabling optimization recommendations to drive better outcomes.
• Ensure configuration accuracy across SFDC, Beeswax, and other operational systems, maintaining compliance with platform policies and brand-safety standards.
• Manage the regional triage queue in Salesforce, ensuring SLA adherence, same-day responsiveness, and high-quality operational support.
• Act as the operational liaison between GTM teams (Sales, CSMs, Agency Development, DPM) and Central Ops HQ (IST), ensuring smooth handoffs and nonstop workflow continuity across time zones.
• Participate in daily GTM syncs and weekly HQ/CoE reviews to align on campaign performance, triage trends, operational challenges, and strategic priorities.
• Collect and elevate market-specific feedback to HQ teams to help refine workflows, tooling, data quality, and operational processes.
• Act as a regional quality gatekeeper, ensuring data integrity, campaign hygiene, and consistency across audience mapping, deal inclusion, pacing setup, and inventory alignment.
• Conduct periodic deal health audits to detect inefficiencies, ensure SLA compliance, and maintain operational excellence across teams.
• Lead training and enablement sessions on SOPs, campaign setup, reporting, troubleshooting, and operational best practices.
• Foster collaboration across L1–L3 operations teams, reinforcing cross-regional alignment and a culture of precision, discipline, and continuous improvement.

The experience we need:

• 8+ years of experience in programmatic operations, campaign management, deal operations, or ad operations, ideally within a global adtech organization.
• Strong expertise in PMPs, Private Auctions, Brand IOs, and campaign setup workflows across major DSPs (DV360, The Trade Desk, Xandr, Beeswax).
• Advanced proficiency in Excel, SQL, and BI tools (Looker, Tableau, Power BI) with the ability to analyze data, diagnose issues, and communicate insights clearly.
• Demonstrated understanding of creative QA, pacing logic, inclusion/exclusion workflows, and deal health optimization.
• Proven ability to partner effectively with Sales, Client Development, CSMs, Product, and HQ Operations stakeholders.
• Comfortable working across global time zones to support operational continuity between North America teams and India HQ.
• Experience mentoring or training new hires and enabling teams in operations, analytics, or technical troubleshooting.
• Exceptional attention to detail, a structured approach to problem-solving, and a passion for operational excellence.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to navigate fast-moving environments while balancing multiple simultaneous workstreams.
