Who we need

We’re looking for a highly motivated, detail-oriented performance media buyer who thrives inside ad platforms.

You know how to pace campaigns, hit CPVs, win auctions, and optimise across Meta , TikTok , DV360 , and YouTube .

You’ll collaborate across departments and time zones, own campaign execution from start to finish, and help improve our internal tools and workflows. You are not afraid of fast-moving targets and make decisions using data, including pivots and familiarity with brand lift studies.

At JustWatch, we value big thinkers and self-starters. Our fast-paced environment offers endless growth opportunities, with new projects and responsibilities arriving regularly. If you thrive on performance and progress, we guarantee the space and support to achieve your ambitions and personal goals.

  • Comfortable working independently in a remote, fast-paced, cross-functional team
  • Familiarity with the entertainment industry (film, streaming, TV, or sports) is a strong plus
  • Proactive, curious , and focused on outcomes over perfection
  • We value people who learn constantly, deliver results, and create meaningful impact
  • When not to join

  • This is a hands-on execution role
  • If you haven’t personally launched and optimized campaigns inside Meta or DV360 , it’s not the right fit
  • We live in data , love performance , and hire doers
  • What we offer you

  • An open-minded and international team that loves to collaborate to reach our goals.
  • Medical , dental , and vision insurance , 401(k) , short-term and long-term disability , and life insurance
