Reporting to the Head of Video Sales Specialist Northern Europe, the Video Sales Specialist (VSS) Manager is a new role responsible for leading a team of video experts in Germany. We seek an established industry expert within the streaming and video space to spearhead sales of Amazon's video advertising solutions - spanning Prime Video, Live Sport, Twitch, OLV and third-party video publishers within the Amazon DSP.
The VSS team, part of the Global Video Advertising and Partnership Team (GVAP), has a mission to help customers unlock the full potential of Amazon Ads video solutions to deliver video goals.

Working closely with the Video Strategy Go-to-Market (VSGTM) team, VSS ensures that GTM strategies are fine-tuned to the nuances of German customers, accelerating product adoption. They serve to establish Amazon Ads as video thought-leaders and a center of excellence, fostering a deeper understanding of Amazon Ads video solutions.
