Description
Who We Are
VDX.tv is a global TV/video advertising technology company helping organizations reach audiences across screens through data-driven storytelling and measurable outcomes. As we continue expanding our political and public affairs vertical, we partner with campaigns, organizations, PACs, and consultancies to deliver strategic, high-impact video solutions.
Our political team supports Democratic candidates and center-left advocacy organizations, working closely with strategists and media buyers to execute sophisticated, cross-channel digital marketing campaigns.
The Role
We’re looking for a strategic and consultative business development leader who will advance revenue growth and strategic partnerships within the public affairs space, and Democratic political ecosystem. This role focuses on building long-term relationships with campaign committees, consultants, PACs, advocacy groups, and public affairs firms.
You will serve as a strategic advisor to media consultants, campaign managers, and political decision-makers — helping them integrate digital marketing tactics and our video solutions into persuasion, mobilization, and turnout strategies.
You’ll join a highly collaborative team of specialists and be empowered to work fluidly within a self-organizing environment. This is a chance to help grow our company in an environment that values ownership, collaboration, and constant learning.
