Placement for agencies and brand media teams
AI-native media buyers, placed.
Programmatic and performance buyers who build their own AI tools and agents to plan, buy, optimise and report. It's a new kind of role, and most job portals don't know how to find it yet. We do.
One buyer who builds does the work of a small desk.
01
They automate the grind
Bid changes, pacing checks and daily reports run on scripts and agents they built themselves.
02
They test at a different scale
Creative, audience and placement tests that used to take a month get set up and read in days.
03
They carry more spend
With the busywork automated, one person can run budgets that used to need two or three.
