About Admattic

Admattic is a global AdTech and digital performance company helping brands, agencies, and advertisers drive measurable growth through data, programmatic advertising, audience intelligence, and performance solutions.

As we expand our international business, we are looking for a Programmatic professional based in Dubai to join our growing team and support the expansion of Admattic's Programmatic business across Asia & MEA.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to build a career in Programmatic, AdTech, digital media, and performance marketing, while working closely with senior business leaders, clients, agencies, and technology partners.

The Role

We are looking for a highly driven and commercially minded individual who can support the growth of Admattic's Programmatic business across Asia and MEA.

You will work closely with the Business Head and senior leadership across sales, campaign strategy, client servicing, partnerships, and business development.

The role will provide exposure to the complete programmatic ecosystem — from understanding client requirements and building media solutions to campaign execution, performance analysis, reporting, and identifying new business opportunities.

Learn the business. Build relationships. Drive growth.

• Basic understanding of the programmatic advertising ecosystem.
• Exposure to DSPs, SSPs, ad exchanges, audience targeting, campaign optimisation, or digital media buying is preferred.

You should be:

• Willing to take ownership and learn quickly.
• Comfortable working across different countries and cultures.
• Hungry to grow with a fast-scaling business.

You should be equally comfortable analysing campaign performance, preparing a client pitch, speaking with an agency, researching a new market, and sitting with the Business Head to understand how the business is being built.
