About LoopMe
LoopMe uses AI to change how brand advertising is bought, measured, and optimised. Where most adtech platforms optimise for impressions or clicks, we optimise for what actually matters to brands — awareness, purchase intent, foot traffic, and sales. Our outcomes-based approach consistently delivers 2–5x the performance of industry benchmarks, which is why the world’s leading brands, agencies, and publishers work with us.
We’ve grown at 40% CAGR every year since 2018, generating over $2 billion in cumulative gross revenue, and we’re building toward $1 billion in annual revenue. That growth is powered by a 400-person global team across 19 cities — and by commercial talent that knows how to sell something genuinely differentiated in a crowded market. If you want to represent a product that wins on results, not relationships alone, this is the right place.
The opportunity
You’ll join LoopMe’s global Marketplace team as Director, Publisher Development — owning the full cycle of initiating, negotiating, and closing mobile advertising and monetisation agreements with leading mobile applications and publishing companies across the US. This role reports to the VP of Business Development.
What you’ll do
- Identify and develop new publisher relationships across mobile gaming and non-gaming communities throughout the US
- Lead outreach to publishers seeking monetisation solutions, managing negotiations through to signed contracts
- Understand publishers’ business models and technical capabilities to pitch monetisation strategies that create incremental value
- Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Legal to ensure LoopMe’s publisher proposition addresses evolving market needs
- Monitor industry and market developments to identify emerging monetisation opportunities and bring new supply partnerships to the pipeline
- Track and analyse performance metrics, using the findings to improve monetisation outcomes in collaboration with internal teams
- Work with Account Managers to grow existing publisher partnerships by identifying new data-driven opportunities
What you’ll bring
Essential
- 5+ years in business development, publisher sales, or partnerships within adtech or mobile advertising — with a focus on monetisation, client management, and commercial strategy
- Experience hunting for, developing, and closing new publisher partnerships — building relationships from initial outreach through to signed agreement
- The ability to build trusted relationships with publishers, understanding their business models and technical capabilities to identify where LoopMe creates incremental value
- The ability to craft and present tailored monetisation strategies to potential partners, adapting pitch and approach to different publisher types
- Comfort operating as an autonomous contributor in a fast-moving environment, driving deals forward and owning next steps without close supervision
Nice to have
- Experience working with SDKs
- Familiarity with Salesforce for pipeline management and reporting
- Established relationships with mobile gaming or non-gaming publishers in the US
What we offer
- Bonus
- Hybrid working —Tues–Thurs in our San Francisco office

Tips for Your Publisher Job Search
Tailor your resume to publishing verticals
Book publishing, academic publishing, and digital media each have distinct priorities. Customize your resume to match the vertical you're targeting, emphasizing acquisitions experience for trade roles and digital analytics or SEO for media-side publisher positions.
Show your list-building results concretely
Publishers are hired on the strength of their editorial judgment and commercial instincts. Describe the lists or content lines you've developed, the genres or categories you've grown, and any notable titles you've brought to market rather than listing duties.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists publisher openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Get specific about your rights experience
Many publisher job descriptions flag rights and licensing as a differentiator. If you've negotiated subsidiary, translation, or digital rights deals, spell that out explicitly in your resume and cover letter, since many candidates omit it.
Prepare a portfolio of acquisition memos
Hiring editors often ask finalists to submit a sample acquisition memo or editorial assessment. Having two or three polished examples ready, ideally covering different categories, lets you respond quickly when an interview moves to this stage.
Ask smart questions about the list in interviews
Publishers who ask specific questions about the existing list, its gaps, and strategic direction signal commercial awareness. Interviewers remember candidates who demonstrate they've researched the imprint's recent catalog and have a clear perspective on where it could grow.
Publisher Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most publishers?
Amazon, Mastercard, and Taboola are hiring the most publishers right now, with openings concentrated in New York, Washington, and California, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand tends to cluster at large commercial publishers, academic presses, and digital media companies expanding their content operations.
How many publisher jobs are remote?
About 78% of publisher openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with remote availability highest in digital and academic publishing roles. Positions focused on acquisitions for major commercial imprints are more likely to require an in-office presence, particularly in major publishing hubs.
How do you become a publisher?
Most publishers start in entry-level editorial roles such as editorial assistant or associate editor, then advance through acquiring and developing titles over several years. Building a reputation for strong commercial judgment, cultivating author relationships, and demonstrating profit-and-loss accountability are the core steps that lead to a publisher title at most organizations.
How do you get hired as a publisher with little experience?
Candidates with limited direct publishing experience can strengthen their candidacy by working in adjacent roles such as literary agency assistant, rights coordinator, or content strategist. Submitting writing samples, acquisition memos, or examples of content you've developed independently demonstrates editorial judgment even without a formal publisher title on your resume.
What does the publisher interview process look like?
Publisher interviews typically begin with a phone or video screen focused on your editorial background and category expertise, followed by one or two rounds with editorial directors and business stakeholders. Final-round candidates are often asked to complete an editorial assessment or acquisition memo exercise, and some organizations include a presentation to a broader team before an offer is extended.
Where can I find and apply to publisher jobs?
You can find and apply to publisher jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search for roles that match your background and apply directly to each listing that fits your experience and the publishing vertical you want to work in.
