About the Role
The Ad Operations Specialist is a strategic, customer-obsessed partner responsible for turning advertiser goals and campaign performance into strong outcomes and business growth. Working closely with Account Managers, this role independently owns an assigned book of business across advertising products and guides campaign strategy from planning through completion.
Upsell is a core pillar of the role. You will use performance trends, advertiser needs, and platform capabilities to identify incremental investment opportunities, build a clear operational and performance rationale, and partner with Sales to bring actionable recommendations to clients. Success means helping Account Managers retain and grow advertiser business—not simply delivering campaigns.
The role remains hands-on and accountable for precise execution. You may directly traffic, QA, optimize, and troubleshoot campaigns or coordinate with offshore Ad Operations specialists, while partnering with Audience Strategy, Creative, Product, Engineering, and Tech Operations to remove blockers, improve performance, and scale better ways of working.

Technical proficiency with third-party tracking, ad verification tools (e.g., DoubleVerify, IAS), and MMPs (e.g., AppsFlyer, Adjust)
-
Track record of building SOPs, QA frameworks, and playbooks, as well as supporting operational readiness programs for new ad capabilities
-
Experience analyzing campaign performance in spreadsheets or BI tools, with exposure to SQL, APIs, or process automation a plus

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as an Ad Operations Specialist
Align your credentials to EB-2 or EB-3
Pull your official transcripts and employment records before you apply. EB-2 requires an advanced degree or a bachelor's plus five years of progressive experience in ad operations; EB-3 covers a four-year degree. Knowing your category upfront shapes which roles to pursue.
Use OFLC Wage Search to benchmark your offer
PERM requires your offered wage to meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location. Run the OFLC Wage Search for ad operations roles in your target city before negotiating salary so you can confirm the employer's offer will clear the threshold.
Target employers with active PERM filing history
Find Ad Operations Specialist roles at employers who have sponsored green cards before. Migrate Mate lists companies with verified green card sponsorship history, searchable by role and location, so you can prioritize outreach to employers already familiar with the PERM process.
Ask about recruitment test timing before accepting
PERM requires the employer to run a formal recruitment test before filing, advertising the role and documenting that no qualified U.S. workers applied. Ask hiring managers when that test is scheduled; a delayed recruitment phase directly delays your PERM filing date and priority date.
Track your priority date against the Visa Bulletin
Once USCIS approves your I-140, your priority date determines when you can file for adjustment of status. If you're a national of India or China, check the monthly Visa Bulletin to monitor your place in the queue and plan your job tenure accordingly.
Understand AC21 portability before you change jobs
If your I-485 has been pending for 180 days or more, AC21 lets you move to a new employer in the same or a similar ad operations occupation without losing your place in line. Confirm the new role's SOC code matches your original petition before resigning.
Green Card Ad Operations Specialist: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an Ad Operations Specialist role qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 green card sponsorship?
Ad operations roles typically qualify under EB-3 for candidates holding a bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, computer science, or a related field, or under EB-2 for those with an advanced degree or a bachelor's plus five years of progressive experience in ad tech or digital media operations. The employer documents the degree requirement in the PERM filing.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B sponsorship for this role?
H-1B visa grants temporary work authorization, while green card sponsorship through EB-2 or EB-3 leads to lawful permanent residence. The process is also different: the employer must first complete PERM labor certification with the Department of Labor, advertising the role and proving no qualified U.S. workers are available, before filing an I-140 petition with USCIS. There is no lottery, but per-country priority-date backlogs can extend timelines significantly.
What does the PERM labor certification process involve for an ad operations employer?
The employer files a PERM application with the Department of Labor after completing a recruitment test, which includes placing job advertisements, documenting applicants, and showing that no qualified U.S. workers were rejected for unlawful reasons. DOL reviews the prevailing wage determination and recruitment results before certifying the application, which is a prerequisite to the I-140 petition.
How do I find employers willing to sponsor a green card for an Ad Operations Specialist?
Search Migrate Mate for Ad Operations Specialist roles filtered by green card sponsorship history. Employers who have completed PERM filings before are far more likely to sponsor again, since they've already built internal processes for DOL recruitment tests, prevailing wage determinations, and I-140 filings. Targeting these employers shortens your path to a sponsorship conversation.
Can I change employers after my green card process has started?
Yes, under two distinct rules. Once your I-485 has been pending for 180 days or more, AC21 portability lets you move to a new employer in the same or a similar ad operations occupation without losing your priority date or place in line. Separately, an approved I-140's priority date can be carried over to a new employer's I-140, even if the original sponsoring employer withdraws the petition.
