Description

Full-time

Salary:

105K – 115K

Location:

Denver CO/Hybrid

Continuum is a Managed Service TV advertising platform - making the buying and execution of linear TV advertising easier, faster, and more effective. Our proprietary platform is the industry’s only true linear TV exchange and it connects directly into cable, broadcast, and streaming inventory, allowing us to plan, activate, and optimize campaigns end-to-end within a single system for agencies and advertisers. We replace the manual, RFP-based buying process with an exchange model that predicts the availability and price of linear inventory – powered by automation, data, and expert media stewardship. The result: more effective reach, faster execution, and a unified view of campaign performance.

We’re a team of around 80 people — independent, competitive, profitable, and proud of it. Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, with offices in New York and Cardiff, Wales, we’ve built a culture anchored in respect, trust, curiosity and grit. We invest in our people through generous benefits, meaningful profit sharing, and an environment that values both performance and perspective.
