Role
Overview of the role: We are seeking a Vice President, Industry Relationships to lead our engagement across the advertising, policy, and regulatory ecosystem. This role sits at the intersection of ad tech, policy, and product, and will serve as a key external and internal voice on complex industry issues including privacy, identity, measurement, and emerging AI governance. This leader will represent the company with trade bodies, standards organizations, and regulators, while also translating evolving external dynamics into clear, actionable strategies for internal teams. The ideal candidate brings deep fluency in ad tech mechanics, not just policy frameworks, and is equally comfortable influencing external stakeholders and advising product, legal, and commercial teams.

The impact you’ll make

Represent the company across key industry forums, trade bodies, and regulatory discussions, building credibility and influence without a traditional lobbying posture

Engage with organizations such as the Interactive Advertising Bureau, IAB Tech Lab, Association of National Advertisers, and other relevant industry groups and regulators like FTC, CMA, EDPB, DG COMP, the AI Office, CFPB, FCC, ASA, JFTC, etc.

Lead conversations on complex topics including privacy frameworks, consent signals, identity/addressability, measurement standards, competition concerns, and AI governance

Translate ambiguous or evolving external developments into clear, actionable guidance for Product, Legal, Revenue, and Communications teams

Partner closely with Product and Commercial leaders to ensure industry changes are reflected in product roadmaps and go-to-market strategies

Serve as a trusted internal advisor on regulatory risk, platform policy changes, and industry standards

Help shape the company’s point of view on critical industry issues and ensure consistent external messaging

Build and maintain a strong network across regulators, platforms, and industry leaders, particularly within the New York ecosystem

Identify emerging regulatory, policy, and industry trends that may impact the company’s technology, data practices, and business model, proactively shaping internal strategy and external engagement

Collaborate with senior leadership to ensure the company’s perspective is effectively represented in industry initiatives, standards development, and cross-company collaborations

The experience we need

15+ years of experience in digital advertising, MarTech, media policy, or related fields

Deep, hands-on fluency in ad tech mechanics, including identity, addressability, measurement, and data infrastructure—not just policy interpretation

Significant experience engaging with trade bodies and standards organizations

Strong understanding of regulatory frameworks, especially U.S. state privacy laws, Federal Trade Commission considerations, platform policies, and emerging AI governance

Experience in senior roles such as General Counsel, Chief Privacy Officer, policy leader, or standards executive within ad tech or adjacent industries

Demonstrated ability to translate complex external developments into practical business and product decisions (“operator mindset”)

Executive presence with the ability to navigate nuanced, high-stakes discussions with regulators, partners, and senior stakeholders

Demonstrated credibility and influence within industry forums, policy discussions, or standards-setting bodies

Strong ability to bridge policy, technology, and commercial considerations in order to guide strategic decision-making

Experience working cross-functionally with product, legal, and revenue teams to translate industry developments into scalable platform capabilities or market strategy

Based in New York, with an established network across the advertising and media ecosystem
