A few reasons why we think you'd love working here:

  • Innovation: We develop and implement groundbreaking products and techniques that shape industry norms and enhance how audiences experience sports, entertainment & news.

The Ad Platforms team is responsible for building and operating the technology that supports Disney's industry-leading, multi-billion dollar global advertising business. Working across all of Disney's streaming brands and linear channels, this team's scope is wide ranging - they impact everything from core infrastructure development that powers Disney's proprietary ad server, to reimagining viewer-first ad experiences and formats. This team's award-winning, in-house built technologies are the backbone of Disney's ad business and a critical element of the Company's streaming future!

The Ad Platforms Business Development Team is responsible for partner strategy and management for a select group of priority platform partners across the Advertising and Data business. Our key partners are an integral part of our Advertising Product strategy and vital contributors to our Product roadmap. As such, the BD team closely aligns with the ADP Product Development and Engineering teams and is responsible for ensuring that our new and existing partners contribute toward our long term strategy and requirements.

This role will both dictate and support the discovery, definition and post-launch elements of the Product development lifecycle.

The right candidate for this role will have expert-level experience in implementing commercial agreements that support the pitch to pay advertising lifecycle, and broad knowledge of the third party systems utilized for planning, buying, reporting, billing, reconciliation, measurement and attribution of linear and addressable advertising.

Responsibilities:

  • Translate product strategy and operational requirements into deal points and partner requirements and work with the Product, Engineering, Operations, Legal, Finance and Sales teams to scope and negotiate optimal commercial arrangements.
  • Plan, negotiate and execute deals, working with key Disney support teams to implement optimal terms and ensuring the Product-defined partner requirements are met.
  • End-to-end management of all pre-deal business development initiatives, from commercial deal strategy to execution to sign off on operational plan.
  • Prioritize, manage and develop relationships with 3rd party vendors that align to Product strategy, in association with the Product development teams, to ensure that the all discovery, design and post launch partner dependencies are executed against.
  • Identify, evaluate and propose growth opportunities that help define Product strategy based on Advertising business objectives and KPIs.
  • Conduct strategic analysis and partner evaluation assessments, including SAM/TAM and Cost-Benefit-Analyses that validate Product KPIs.

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Project Management or related field, or equivalent work experience required
  • 10+ years' experience in a business development, product management, commercial go-to-market roles, or related experience required
  • Strong understanding of the advertising ecosystem
