Please note: We are looking for candidates in the New York City or Chicago area.

We are building an AI native company where AI is an integral part of how we build and operate. AI tool usage during interviews varies by role. You may be asked to demonstrate proficiency with AI tools, discuss how you leverage AI, or complete interview exercises without AI assistance. Your Recruiter will provide clear guidance as you move through the interview process.

Undisclosed use of AI not previously discussed with or approved by your Recruiter may impact your candidacy.

Life360 Ads is building the family ads platform, combining the reach of a 100M+ MAU first-party platform with a 35,000-publisher programmatic network. The Ads Sales team is on the front lines of growing that business, cultivating agency and brand relationships and translating a differentiated data asset into revenue. This role is central to the programmatic growth of that business, working with agency trading desks, DSPs, and direct programmatic buyers to drive deals that perform.

The Senior Client Partner is a quota-carrying, senior individual contributor responsible for growing Life360's programmatic advertising revenue.

Your deep programmatic fluency is what makes you credible in the room and effective at translating Life360's data and inventory story into revenue, with success reflected in consistently exceeding both individual and team quotas. 

You will also gather and synthesize industry feedback to educate the broader team, equipping the national sales organization with the insights and tools needed to drive their business, including, but not limited to, supporting training and sharing best practices.
