• Produce recurring and ad‑hoc reporting on yield performance, sell‑through, capacity, and pacing for sales and leadership audiences.
• Support inventory planning and forecasting tied to upfronts, tentpole events, and in‑year demand shifts.
• Partner with Sales and Planning teams to evaluate inventory availability, yield impact, and pricing for new opportunities.
• Investigate delivery issues, revenue fluctuations, and data anomalies; recommend corrective actions to protect yield.
• Support evaluation of new platforms, capabilities, and monetization initiatives by assessing potential yield impact, revenue upside, and operational risk
• Contribute to improvements in reporting tools, processes, and data workflows to increase efficiency and forecast accuracy.

What you’ll need to be successful:

• 3 – 5 years of experience in digital media, advertising analytics, inventory management, yield, pricing, or a related field.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to work confidently with large datasets.
• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including formulas and pivot tables.
• Experience with digital ad platforms, reporting tools, or ad‑tech systems (e.g., FreeWheel, Looker, MPP, or similar).
• Knowledge of digital advertising fundamentals, including CPMs, pacing, supply/demand dynamics, and yield optimization.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting digital advertising or digital media businesses (e.g., digital video, streaming, programmatic, addressable).
• Working knowledge of digital inventory and yield concepts, including CPMs, pricing floors, pacing, sell‑through, and supply/demand dynamics.
• Experience partnering cross‑functionally with Sales, Planning, Product, Yield, or Programmatic teams.
• Strong ability to analyze and interpret digital performance data and communicate insights clearly.
