What will you be doing?
As Senior Director, Commerce Sales & Growth, you will be a senior individual contributor responsible for expanding Circana’s Commerce business across retail media networks, commerce platforms, and strategic partners. You will own a portfolio of priority relationships and opportunities, developing the account strategy, executive relationships, pipeline, and commercial path required to grow revenue.
This is a consultative selling role for someone who can move comfortably between strategy and execution.
You will bring a clear point of view to clients, identify high-value business needs, connect those needs to Circana’s measurement, data, analytics, and technology capabilities, and lead opportunities from early discovery through agreement and expansion. You will work closely with Account Management, Client Service, Product, Measurement, Data Science, Finance, Legal, and Sales Operations to deliver a coordinated client experience while maintaining clear ownership of the commercial relationship and outcome.
The role does not include direct people management. Success will come from senior-level influence, commercial judgment, disciplined execution, and the ability to mobilize cross-functional teams around the right client opportunities.
