Paramount Advertising is seeking a highly motivated, consultative sales professional to drive growth across Paramount’s vast portfolio through the integration of streaming, programmatic, advanced advertising, data, and convergent media solutions. The ideal candidate brings a sophisticated understanding of today’s evolving media landscape and excels at translating Paramount’s full range of capabilities into integrated solutions that deliver against advertisers’ business objectives—moving beyond traditional demo guarantees and delivery metrics.

As an Account Executive on the Advanced Advertising Team, you will serve as a strategic advisor to agencies and advertisers, helping them navigate and capitalize on the convergence of linear TV, streaming, digital video, programmatic, and data-driven advertising. You will leverage Paramount’s suite of audience, identity, optimization, attribution, measurement, programmatic, and advanced advertising solutions to develop holistic, outcome-oriented media strategies.

You will be expected to identify opportunities to expand relationships, drive incremental revenue, and position Paramount as a leading partner for clients seeking greater scale, precision, flexibility, and measurable business outcomes across the entire video ecosystem.

Success in this role requires a balance of revenue generation, executive presence, convergent selling expertise, analytical thinking, and cross-functional collaboration. You will work closely with agency investment and strategy teams, programmatic and digital leads, data and analytics partners, and Paramount’s broader sales organization to develop integrated solutions and unlock new sources of growth.

You thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment, are comfortable selling complex technology and data-enabled solutions, and can move fluidly between high-level business strategy and the details of media activation.
