Highly organized, detail-oriented, and capable of managing multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment
Proficiency with contract lifecycle management (CLM) tools and legal technology platforms
Self-starter who can work independently and collaboratively with cross-functional teams
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with programmatic advertising, real-time bidding (RTB), supply path optimization, or connected TV (CTV) platforms
