Manager, Ad Ops (Audio & Video) Job at Morning Brew in New York

Overview

Morning Brew Inc. is looking for a Senior Ad Ops Manager to ensure our audio and video ad campaigns run flawlessly and shine in front of clients.

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill trafficking gig. We’re looking for someone who can get hands-on in platforms like Megaphone, Spotify, YouTube, and confidently join client calls to explain how pixels, tags, and tracking actually work (without putting anyone to sleep).

As Morning Brew Inc.’s resident audio/video ad ops pro, you’ll be the person people turn to when something breaks, when a client has a question, or when Sales needs to know what’s actually possible before they present it in a deck.

Our positions are remote/hybrid; however, we have a strong preference for employees who can work from our Morning Brew Inc. HQ in NYC.

Here\'s What You\'ll Be Working On

• Build + Launch: Set up, QA, and launch audio and video campaigns across multiple platforms, ensuring everything runs smoothly from copy to clicktags.
• Track + Prove It: Implement client pixels/tags and confirm they’re firing, so we can prove performance and keep renewals rolling.
• Client-Facing SME: Join onboarding and mid-flight calls to walk clients through the tech, manage expectations, and help AMs scope realistic deliverables.
• Monitor + Report: Monitor campaign pacing and performance, flag issues early, and deliver accurate reporting that tells the right story.
• Document + Improve: Create playbooks, streamline workflows, and push the team forward on what “great” looks like for audio/video ad ops.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in digital ad operations with audio/video platforms. Experience with a large digital publisher is ideal.
• You know your way around Megaphone, Spotify Ad Studio, YouTube Studio, and web ad trafficking tools.
• You\'ve got technical a/v chops and can troubleshoot tracking issues in your sleep.
• You’re detail-obsessed, but also comfortable explaining complex ad tech to non-technical teammates and clients. Strong project management and QA discipline.
• You thrive in a collaborative environment where you can influence outcomes.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with confidence in client-facing settings.
