We are a dream team obsessed with the uncomfortable excitement of discovering what happens when you merge creativity, intuition and cutting-edge technology. Come be a part of what’s next.

Within the broader UCAN regional organization, we’re building out a new team, Market Planning & Operations (MP&O), which will help steward and support our Ads go-to-market strategy. You will support the commercial business in the UCAN region, inclusive of Sales & Account Management, with a specialization in Media Solutions & Planning.

In this role, you will build a robust programmatic-first media packaging strategy for the UCAN Ad Sales team that combines the power of Netflix’s IP with technical capabilities and audience data into scalable, high-impact solutions for advertisers and agencies.

You will leverage product, marketing, pricing, and inventory expertise to deliver opportunities to sales, ensuring our regional GTM motion scales in a data-driven, repeatable, and designed manner that maximizes both client outcomes and Netflix's commercial growth.

In tandem, you will have the opportunity to learn and grow quickly in this space, working closely with global, cross-functional teams across F&S, Market Activation, Brand Partnerships, Consumer Products, Product Marketing & Content to help build a cohesive understanding and unified approach to advertising at Netflix.
