Since 2018, we’ve been reshaping programmatic advertising to make it faster, more transparent, and more profitable by building the most direct path between publishers and advertisers.
But we don’t stop here: wherever attention lives, on the web, in apps, on CTV, and beyond, our mission is to monetize audiences, across every device. Our data-driven tech delivers 30% higher revenues for our clients on average than traditional solutions.

→ Viously: the ultimate all-in-one video tech solution
→ Voxeus: the audio distribution and monetization technology

Behind Sparteo’s growth is a team of 100+ talents across 11 countries, united by a shared ambition to redefine the future of digital advertising.

Our dedication has placed Sparteo among the most dynamic tech players in Europe:

• FT1000 ranking: among the fastest-growing European companies in 2024 & 2025

• The Europas: featured in the list of 100 hottest startups

• Pixalate Ranking: #1 Web SSP in France with our Actirise solution, overtaking Google AdExchange

These milestones are just the result. What truly sets us apart is how we work: at Sparteo, we don’t settle, we act.

• We are Drivers, not passengers: We take the wheel and own our results.

• We are data-obsessed: Facts guide us, not assumptions, not egos.

The mission

This is a pure supply-side business development role: you sell Sparteo’s CTV monetization to the owners of the screens and the apps, not to advertisers. As an independent contractor working closely with our CTV and Supply leadership in Europe, you will be the tip of the spear for Sparteo’s CTV supply in the US.

Your mission is to leverage your existing network to open doors at CTV OEMs and leading CTV / FAST app publishers, sign long-term partnerships and grow the revenue they generate on our platform.

Key Responsibilities

• Business Development: Identify and approach smart TV manufacturers, streaming device makers and top CTV / FAST app publishers in the US. Pitch Sparteo’s CTV monetization stack and its value against their current setup.

• Deal Execution: Lead commercial negotiations and close partnership agreements, working with our legal and business teams in Europe.

• Partner Launch: Coordinate onboarding with our integration and account management teams (VAST, app-ads.txt, ad pods) and follow the first months of performance until the partnership scales.

• Account Growth: Act as the primary US point of contact for your partners, monitor revenue and fill, and drive expansion (new apps, new formats, new markets).

• Market Feedback: Provide on-the-ground intelligence to Sparteo’s leadership on US CTV market dynamics, pricing expectations and competitor movements.

What We Are Looking For

• Experience: 5+ years in business development or partnerships in AdTech or digital media, including at least 2-3 years focused on CTV in the US market.

• The Network: Active, warm relationships with decision-makers at CTV OEMs (Samsung, LG, Vizio, Roku, TCL...) and / or CTV and FAST app publishers with scale. You can secure a meeting with a Head of Monetization or a VP Partnerships next week.

• CTV Expertise: Solid understanding of the CTV monetization ecosystem: SSPs and DSPs, SSAI, VAST, ad pods, app-ads.txt and supply chain transparency.

• Entrepreneurial Mindset: A self-starter comfortable working autonomously as an independent contractor, with a team based in Europe.

• AI-native Reflex: A strategic thinker, you excel at deconstructing business complexity into flawless operational blueprints. You don’t just use AI; you design the structured documentation and logic flows that allow intelligent systems to execute our vision with precision.

Your mindset to share our adventure

• 🚀 You want to make an impact and move things forward collectively. Does hearing phrases like “Yes, but we’ve been doing it this way for years...” make your hair stand on end? We feel the same way: progress is made by questioning what already exists.

• 🧠 You solve problems pragmatically and analytically.

• 🏃‍♂️ You’re looking for a fast-moving environment where your agility will be an asset. The 80-20 (Pareto) principle holds no secrets for you.

• 🎧 Your ability to listen encourages you to challenge and improve yourself on an ongoing basis.

Why work with us

• 🌍 Fully remote: You work from anywhere in the US, in close collaboration with our CTV and Supply leadership in Europe.

• 🚀 High-impact mission: You open the US CTV market for a fast-growing, independent ad tech group.

• 🤝 Strong support: You work hand in hand with our integration, account management and legal teams to launch and scale your partnerships.

• 📈 Rapid growth: You join a company in rapid expansion mode, impacting the advertising technology landscape across Europe and the US.
