Lead commercialization and partner enablement for Big Happy's Retail Media Network offsite offerings. Build and maintain RMN and agency relationships, co-sell programmatic 3D DOOH and mobile solutions, create RMN-specific sales playbooks and measurement case studies, run pilots and proofs-of-concept, and track pipeline and JBP revenue adoption while aligning cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Marketing, and Client Services.
Focus: Retail Media Network (RMN) Partnerships and Development
As Big Happy enters its next phase of hyper-growth, we are adding a dynamic, execution-focused leader to scale our Retail Media Network (RMN) Partnerships division. Reporting directly to the VP of Strategic Partnerships, this critical role is the daily engine and "connective tissue" of our RMN strategy.
You will be responsible for supporting the commercialization of Big Happy’s offsite retail media offering, specifically positioning our high-impact 3D DOOH and programmatic mobile capabilities as a seamless extension of RMNs' owned-and-operated (O&O) channels. This is a builder role designed for a high-performing individual contributor who deeply understands how RMNs operate, how they monetize offsite inventory, and how to turn Big Happy into an execution partner for top RMNs, shopper marketing agencies, and brand shopper teams.
Key Responsibilities
- RMN Partner Enablement & Execution: Act as the strategic partner to the VP, operationalizing the RMN go-to-market framework and managing day-to-day initiatives to activate preferred partner status.
- Relationship Management: Cultivate, maintain, and deepen daily relationships with monetization leads, commercial partnership teams, and product managers within RMNs, as well as shopper marketing agency leads.
- Offsite Co-Selling & Strategy: Partner closely with internal Sales and RMN co-selling teams to align Big Happy's high-impact programmatic offerings with retail supplier briefs (e.g., geofenced in-store DOOH campaigns and shopper mobile activations).
- Cross-Functional Product Alignment: Partner closely with internal Sales, Product, Marketing, and Client Services teams to align RMN data feedback (e.g., sharing back Device IDs or integrating with clean rooms) with our technical product roadmap—driving results through influence rather than direct authority.
- Collateral & Toolkit Ownership: Build and roll out RMN-specific sales playbooks, offsite POVs, and closed-loop measurement case studies. Lead training sessions to ensure RMN sales forces understand how to easily position and pitch Big Happy to their brand advertisers.
- Pipeline & JBP Tracking: Monitor, analyze, and report on RMN partnership revenue adoption, campaign performance, and Joint Business Plan (JBP) milestones to internal leadership.
Retail Media Development & Commercialization
- Position Big Happy as the premier, turnkey offsite extension partner for RMNs looking to scale past their O&O limitations using programmatic 3D DOOH and premium mobile environments.
- Translate complex programmatic and creative capabilities into easy-to-understand value propositions for brand shopper marketers looking to drive high-impact, physical-to-digital retail lift.
- Execute pilot frameworks and proof-of-concept campaigns (such as programmatic seasonal events) to demonstrate immediate return on ad spend (ROAS) and secure long-term exclusive agreements.
