The JobsInAdtech.com May update

By Jon Walsh, co-founder of JobsInAdtech.com

It was a busy month behind the scenes for JobsInAdtech.com in April. We’ve been setting up our marketing plans for the next three months as we are anticipating more growth in the adtech industry!

Despite the Trump tariffs, we are seeing and hearing that as budgets are increasing and more dollars flow through the programmatic, that means growth. The reality with all businesses today is that if you’re not growing you’re falling behind. It’s always a tough balance with recruitment as you need to be able to deliver business today, and tomorrow, and don’t want your staff stretched and unhappy, whilst at the same time, redundancy in your team is not a good thing as people want to be busy and making a difference.

We are seeing middle and upper middle commercial roles start to have a significant uptick in terms of open roles which marks a real difference from only six months ago, which demonstrates there’s significant anticipation of more and more budgets being released which is a real positive for our space.

Engineering is something that continues to grow, and I would say it’s the one job role that has kept firm on high salaries as it seems to be the one segment of Adtech careers where demand really outstrips supply. Seeing this my advice would be for ops people to get trained on the various technical languages and start learning dev skills as I feel it would be a fairly simple way to continue to make yourselves knowledgable and needed.

If you’re looking at roles today, here’s some of the ones that got me excited to see:

  1. Senior Full-Stack Developer at Vow Made (an Amazon DSP layer 2 business) https://www.jobsinadtech.com/jobs/128772391-senior-full-stack-developer-python-react-adtech-focus
