SUMMARY
As a Programmatic Account Specialist, you will play a crucial role in supporting the programmatic CTV advertising process, with a focus on deal intake, pre-sale validation, and campaign setup across our internal Order Management System and various SSP platforms (FreeWheel, Magnite, Index, Pubmatic, etc.). You will work closely with Sales, Account Management, Yield and Ad Ops to ensure deals — including both Programmatic Guaranteed (PG) and Private Marketplace (PMP) campaigns — are accurately captured, validated, and executed, facilitating smooth campaign launches and healthy delivery throughout the campaign lifecycle.
DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES
- Managing deal intake in Pilot (our OMS) with accuracy and efficiency, ensuring PG and PMP deals are configured correctly before handoff to Ad Ops

- Flagging custom or non-standard requests for appropriate cross-functional review and execution
- Supporting campaign setup across various SSP platforms with a foundational understanding of programmatic and CTV advertising
- Monitoring deal health — pacing, delivery, and win rate/eCPM versus floor CPM — to flag risk to the Account Manager before it becomes a client-facing issue
- Monitoring PG and PMP pacing through dashboard-based reporting to support guaranteed-delivery tracking
- Producing raw data pulls and standard client reporting to support Account Manager-led client communication
- Collaborating with Sales, Account Managers, Yield, Ad Ops, and other cross-functional teams to ensure deal requirements are met and accurately reflected across systems
- Maintaining clear and organized communication with internal teams and clients regarding deal status and campaign progress
- Participating in process-improvement discussions and enhancement feedback as programmatic offerings evolve
QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience with deal intake and campaign trafficking preferred
- Familiarity with Order Management Systems (e.g., Boostr, Operative) and SSP platforms (FreeWheel, Magnite, Pubmatic, Index) preferred
- Proficient in Microsoft Office, especially Excel and data entry/management
- Strong attention to detail, organization, and communication skills
- Comfortable working with reporting/dashboard tools (e.g., Tableau) to monitor pacing and delivery
- Bachelor's Degree or equivalent work experience

Tips for Your Programmatic Account Manager Job Search
Tailor your resume to DSP platforms
Hiring managers scan for the specific demand-side platforms you've operated, so name them explicitly in your work history. Generic phrases like 'programmatic tools' won't stand out the way platform-specific experience does for a programmatic account manager role.
Quantify campaign outcomes, not just tasks
Programmatic account manager roles expect evidence of performance impact. Describe results in terms of ROAS improvement, CPM efficiency, or viewability lift from campaigns you managed, not just the fact that you ran them.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists programmatic account manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter openings by advertiser vertical
Programmatic buying strategy differs meaningfully across direct response, brand awareness, and retail media. When targeting roles, prioritize listings in the vertical where your campaign experience is strongest, since interviewers will probe that context directly.
Prepare a campaign troubleshooting example
Interviewers for programmatic account manager positions almost always ask how you've diagnosed and fixed a campaign that was underdelivering. Have a specific, structured example ready that covers the signal you caught, the adjustment you made, and the outcome.
Negotiate scope before accepting an offer
Account manager roles vary widely in whether you own strategy, execution, or both. Before accepting, clarify which DSPs you'll manage, the size of the book you'll own, and whether the role carries a renewal or upsell target.
Programmatic Account Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How many programmatic account manager jobs are remote?
About 56% of programmatic account manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the platform-based nature of the work. Roles focused on self-serve DSP management and performance reporting tend to be the most remote-friendly, while positions with heavy client entertainment or in-person agency collaboration requirements are more likely to require on-site presence.
How do you become a programmatic account manager?
Start by building hands-on familiarity with at least one major demand-side platform, either through an entry-level ad ops or trafficking role, a managed-service internship, or a self-funded learning account. From there, develop client communication skills alongside campaign analytics experience. Most programmatic account managers move into the role after one to two years in ad operations, media planning, or a closely related function.
Can you get a programmatic account manager job with little experience?
Yes, junior programmatic account manager roles do exist, particularly at agencies and ad tech companies that build internal training programs. The most effective way in without direct experience is to demonstrate platform literacy through a certification from a major DSP, pair it with an internship or freelance project where you ran an actual campaign, and frame any client-facing or analytical experience from adjacent roles in your application materials.
What does the programmatic account manager interview process look like?
The process typically starts with a recruiter screen focused on your platform experience and account management background, followed by a hiring manager conversation that goes deeper on campaign strategy and client handling. Many employers add a technical or case-study round where you're asked to diagnose a campaign scenario or walk through an optimization recommendation. Final rounds often involve a cross-functional panel with sales, strategy, or client success stakeholders.
Where can I find and apply to programmatic account manager jobs?
