Pre-Sales Specialist, Media Activation & Solutions

Responsibilities

• You'll work closely with the sales team to turn client needs into compelling, data-backed solutions - getting into the details on audience design, proposals, budgets, and campaign documentation, and building your pre-sales skills as you go.
• In this role, you can expect to:
• Partner with sales on the full pre-sales cycle - from discovery calls and briefings through to final presentations with senior stakeholders across our agency, brand, and advocacy clients
• Draft Managed Media and data proposals, including audience design, budget tables, insertion orders, and supporting campaign documentation
• Deliver product demos and technical presentations that bring Resonate's data depth and capabilities to life for clients
• Translate complex datasets into clear, actionable strategies that drive measurable outcomes for clients
• Collaborate with Product and Research teams to feed client insights back into the roadmap
• Contribute to internal knowledge-sharing - case studies, POVs, and best practices
• The environment

Requirements

• You don't need to have done this exact job before - but you do need to have the foundations. Here's what matters most:
• The non-negotiables
• 1-3 years of experience in media planning, campaign management, or pre-sales
• Strong analytical skills - you can take a complex dataset and turn it into a clear story
• Excellent communication, written and verbal - you're comfortable presenting to clients and internal stakeholders
• Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines without things slipping
• An interest in working on media and activation campaigns across agency, brand, and advocacy clients - you're curious about how different organizations reach and persuade audiences
• We care about what you can do more than where you studied. A bachelor's degree or equivalent experience works for us.
• Strong signals we'd love to see
• Experience in programmatic, AdTech, SaaS, or a data-driven media environment
• Familiarity with DMPs, DSPs, or audience-based buying
• Prior experience at a media agency or in a client-facing media or data role
• Comfort working in environments that aren't fully defined yet - you build the process as much as you follow it
• Why Resonate
• You'll work across a varied client mix where the work actually matters - campaigns and organizations trying to reach and move real audiences at scale
• Our data goes deeper than demographics. We understand the values, beliefs, and motivations behind consumer behavior - and that's what you'll be selling
• Growth-stage means your work is visible. You're not a cog - you're someone who can genuinely shape how this team operates
• A collaborative team that wins together and shares the credit
• Resonate Attributes
• At Resonate, we care about more than your experience on paper. We look for teammates who bring the right mindset and ways of working to help us do great work, together. The Resonators who thrive here embody these qualities:
• Proactive Problem-Solving: You spot challenges early and take initiative to solve them.
