Principal Client Partner
About the role
Samba is a media intelligence company. We know what the world is watching, reading, and thinking about — in real time, at scale, across every screen. Our data exists with the consent of over a billion people, organized into the most complete picture of consumer attention ever built. The biggest brands in the world use that picture to make smarter decisions. We think it’s the most interesting data asset on the planet, because it’s the most culturally relevant. We're looking for a Principal Client Partner to lead the sale of Samba's advertising, measurement and research solutions to brand advertisers — helping them deliver their messages across all screens, while measuring what matters most: business outcomes. The advertiser is your customer. You'll own the entire relationship, from the CMO and senior marketing leadership through to the brand, media, insight and procurement teams who run the business day to day — and you'll work alongside the agencies who buy on their behalf without ever losing ownership of the client relationship.
