Today we’re introducing Yonathan, our Senior Sales & Client Partner, based in Stockholm, Sweden. The DanAds Sales & Client Partners team supports our portfolio of leading brands and publishers, coordinating platform development and feature implementation.
Hey Yonathan! Could you tell us a little bit about your role at DanAds?
As a Senior Sales & Client Partner, I support our key European customers by helping them maximize success and discover new ways to leverage our technology to meet their business goals. My role is very collaborative, and I really enjoy being part of our customers’ journey to transform their advertising operations.
What did you do before you started this position?
I have about 18 years experience of working in the media and software industry. Most recently, I worked at a B2C service within streaming aggregation. As one of the first employees I had the chance to work across many different business areas. Before that, I worked extensively with video ad serving, video players and affiliate marketing.
What inspired you to pursue a career in adtech?
I got an offer to join the video ad serving company Videoplaza as their first Strategic Account Manager, which gave me a firsthand look at the significant impact ad tech has on users, publishers and brands in our daily lives. Ad tech is fast-paced and offers a perfect blend of technology and media, which I really enjoy. You get to work with innovative solutions and drive real value for brands and publishers, and also to interact with many different business areas on the customer side.
What’s the best thing about being part of the DanAds team?
The passion and innovation here is incredible, and it’s exciting to be surrounded by such a talented and forward thinking team.
