Senior Account Strategist

ROLE OVERVIEW

We're Klever, The Human Ad Tech Company. We're creating a new hybrid role for a technical, client-facing programmatic expert: someone who can own both the strategy and hands-on execution behind our clients' campaigns (ideally with real DSP experience), and who can sit in front of a client and speak to campaign details directly and credibly, including justifying and growing budgets.

This role combines Account Manager and Account Strategist functions. It has no people-management responsibilities, but it carries direct accountability for the quality, performance, and delivery of every campaign it owns.

The right person is as comfortable inside a DSP platform as they are explaining to a client why a campaign is performing the way it is. Though working within a collaborative team, this is an individual-contributor role for someone who wants to stay close to the technical work while owning the client relationship and the strategic narratives.

JOB DESCRIPTION

  • Own a portfolio of clients directly. Collaborate with team members. Answer questions, explain performance, and defend strategic decisions in real time, without immediately escalating for technical detail.
  • Own the full campaign lifecycle: strategy, media plan design, execution alongside AdOps, and reporting.
  • Work hands-on in Klever's ad tech platforms, and office suites to launch, monitor, and optimize campaigns.
  • Translate client goals into audience strategies, media plans across all programmatic channels.
  • Write and respond to proposals, RFPs, RFQs, and RFIs with technical accuracy and strategic clarity.
  • Build and present reports that tie campaign performance directly to client business objectives.
  • Use Klever's standard templates for reports, decks, and media plans, and help sharpen them.
  • Grow your portfolio by spotting upsell and cross-sell opportunities from performance data and client conversations.
  • Work cross-functionally with AdOps and Sales to get client and business needs done.

SKILLS REQUIRED

  • 5-7 years in programmatic account management or strategy; agency experience a plus.
  • Hands-on DSP experience (DV360, TTD, StackAdapt, etc.). 
  • Strong client-facing communication. Able to explain technical and strategic decisions clearly and confidently, without needing someone else to translate.
  • Sharp, proactive thinker who owns outcomes independently.
  • Deep understanding of success metrics, attribution modeling, and customer journey mapping.
  • Advanced reporting and visualization skills; expert-level Excel or Google Sheets required.
  • Sales acumen: a track record of spotting and closing upsell/cross-sell opportunities.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office or Google Workspace.
  • Salesforce or other CRM experience a plus.
  • Comfort with AI tools a plus.
  • Fluently bilingual in French and English, written and spoken. Required.

APERÇU DU POSTE

Nous sommes Klever, The Human Ad Tech Company. Nous créons un nouveau rôle hybride pour un expert programmatique technique, orienté client : quelqu'un capable de porter à la fois la stratégie et l'exécution pratique des campagnes de nos clients (idéalement avec une expérience réelle sur DSP), et capable de se présenter devant un client pour parler des détails de campagne de façon directe et crédible, y compris pour justifier et faire croître les budgets.

Ce rôle combine les fonctions de gestionnaire de compte et de stratège de compte. Il ne comporte aucune responsabilité de gestion d'équipe, mais il porte une responsabilité directe pour la qualité, la performance et la livraison de chaque campagne dont il a la charge.

La bonne personne est aussi à l'aise à l'intérieur d'une plateforme DSP qu'à expliquer à un client pourquoi une campagne performe de telle ou telle façon. Bien qu'elle travaille au sein d'une équipe collaborative, il s'agit d'un rôle de contributeur individuel, pour quelqu'un qui souhaite rester proche du travail technique tout en étant responsable de la relation client et des récits stratégiques.

DESCRIPTION DU POSTE

  • Gérer directement un portefeuille de clients. Collaborer avec les membres de l'équipe.

Répondre aux questions, expliquer la performance et défendre les décisions stratégiques en temps réel, sans devoir immédiatement escalader pour obtenir des détails techniques.

Prendre en charge l'ensemble du cycle de vie de la campagne : stratégie, conception du plan média, exécution en collaboration avec l'équipe AdOps, et rapports.

Travailler de façon pratique dans les plateformes ad tech de Klever et les suites bureautiques pour lancer, surveiller et optimiser les campagnes.

Traduire les objectifs des clients en stratégies d'audience et en plans média couvrant tous les canaux programmatiques.

Rédiger et répondre aux propositions, appels d'offres (RFP), demandes de prix (RFQ) et demandes d'information (RFI) avec précision technique et clarté stratégique.

Élaborer et présenter des rapports qui relient directement la performance des campagnes aux objectifs d'affaires des clients.

Utiliser les gabarits standards de Klever pour les rapports, présentations et plans média, et contribuer à les améliorer.

Faire croître son portefeuille en repérant des occasions de vente incitative et de vente croisée à partir des données de performance et des échanges avec les clients.

Travailler de façon transversale avec les équipes AdOps et Ventes pour répondre aux besoins des clients et de l'entreprise.

COMPÉTENCES REQUISES

  • 5 à 7 ans d'expérience en gestion de comptes ou en stratégie programmatique; une expérience en agence est un atout.
  • Expérience pratique avec des DSP (DV360, TTD, StackAdapt, etc.).
  • Excellentes compétences en communication avec les clients. Capacité à expliquer des décisions techniques et stratégiques de façon claire et confiante, sans avoir besoin qu'une autre personne fasse la traduction.
  • Esprit vif et proactif, capable d'assumer les résultats de façon autonome.
  • Compréhension approfondie des indicateurs de succès, de la modélisation d'attribution et de la cartographie du parcours client.
  • Compétences avancées en création de rapports et en visualisation de données; maîtrise experte d'Excel ou de Google Sheets requise.
  • Sens du développement des affaires : expérience avérée à repérer et conclure des occasions de vente incitative et de vente croisée.
  • Maîtrise de Microsoft Office ou de Google Workspace.
  • Expérience avec Salesforce ou un autre CRM, un atout.
  • Aisance avec les outils d'intelligence artificielle, un atout.
  • Bilinguisme parfait en français et en anglais, à l'écrit comme à l'oral. Obligatoire.
