Verve is an ecosystem of demand and supply technologies fusing data, media, and technology together to deliver results and growth to both advertisers and publishers–no matter the screen or location, no matter who, what, or where a customer is. With 30 offices across the globe and with an eye on servicing forward-thinking advertising customers, Verve’s solutions are trusted by more than 90 of the United States’ top 100 advertisers, 4,000 publishers globally, and the world’s top demand-side platforms.

Verve For Advertisers is a technology company that empowers brands and agencies to connect moments of discovery and drive measurable outcomes across screens.

As part of Verve, we’ve unified the company’s demand-side offering, bringing together the largest on-site search intent dataset outside of walled gardens, direct SDK integrations with top apps, alongside data partnerships with 3M+ websites and LLMs. Our technology captures both what consumers do and why they do it, delivering high-fidelity audiences, insights, and activation across premium omnichannel inventory.

We are looking for an Account Strategy Director to join our growing team. This person will drive the growth and retention of a defined set of high-value Priority Accounts, owning the full account strategy across the sales cycle and partnering closely with Sales, Client Service, Sight, and Strategy to deliver clear, actionable plans that move client business forward. The ideal candidate translates VFA’s first-party search data and zero-party (polling) data into strategic recommendations, helping clients understand consumer behavior, identify opportunities, and unlock growth. This is a high-impact role for someone who is proactive, organized, and motivated by building senior client relationships and positioning VFA as a long-term strategic partner.

Responsibilities include

Own the strategy and growth plan for a portfolio of Priority Accounts, with a focus on retention, expansion, and long-term value
Lead account planning by defining client goals, identifying opportunities, and building clear, actionable plans to drive revenue
Partner closely with Sales to prioritize opportunities, align on strategy, and ensure a clear path to achieving client goals
Work with Sight and Strategy to translate first-party search and zero-party data into insights, narratives, and recommendations across the sales cycle
Lead the market intelligence narrative in QBRs and ongoing client conversations, bringing forward trends, insights, and clear strategic recommendations
Build and maintain senior-level relationships across client and agency teams
Identify opportunities to expand across channels, products, and data solutions within VFA
Drive alignment across internal teams to ensure work is prioritized and focused on the highest-impact opportunities

Here are a few indicators that you're the right person

You’re a strategic thinker who knows how to connect data to real business outcomes
You’re comfortable leading conversations with senior stakeholders and know how to push beyond surface-level insights to uncover what actually matters to the client
You’re proactive, organized, and accountable — you don’t wait for direction, and you know how to move work forward across teams

You’re motivated by driving measurable growth across your accounts
