What You’ll Do

• Helping to set-up and analyse video player configurations – including the Ad scheduling, layout behaviour, monetisation and content distribution – across the Minute Media network.
• Helping to determine the optimal ad stack and ad unit structuring for all Minute Media O&O properties - brainstorming avenues to investigate utilising various A/B tools.
• Providing intelligent analysis and insight into revenue, supply and demand patterns across the business in order to provide yield-maximisation suggestions.
• Ensuring that the Distribution of Video Content across the network is optimised both in terms of content costs, margin efficiency and advertiser revenues but also in terms of user experience and brand impact.

• Working closely with the Ad Tech Product team to provide input into the refinement of existing products, and creation of new ones to help drive optimisation efforts.
