Job Description
Nordic Commercial Partner
THE OPPORTUNITY IN A NUTSHELL
You are a high-stakes negotiator with "black belt" experience in closing multi-million deals across the Nordic media and retail landscape. As our Nordic Commercial Partner, you will be the strategic spearhead who unifies Vend’s footprint and turns fragmented ad-hoc spends into dominant, long-term framework agreements.
WHY US?
This isn’t just a sales role; it’s a market-shaping position. You will act as the commercial umbrella for our largest partners, leveraging Vend’s unique first-party data and value proposition to spearhead our breakthrough in the Nordic retail segment. This is your chance to reclaim advertising budgets through high-impact partnerships while driving the Recommerce revolution across the region.
THE MISSION: SECURE THE NORDIC FOOTPRINT
Your primary mission is to eliminate fragmentation. You will be the single, powerful point of entry for Nordic agency hubs and major retail HQs. You don’t just win a contract in one country; you ensure that win becomes a framework for all four markets.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
- The Deal-Maker: Lead the negotiations for our largest regional partnerships, ensuring we capture the maximum "share of wallet."
- The "Always-On" Pivot: Transitioning our biggest accounts from one-off tactical spends to long-term, predictable framework agreements.
- Performance Advocacy: Using our unique first-party intent data to prove Vend’s ROI, actively challenging budgets traditionally held by global platforms.
- Collaborative Power: Working in lockstep with local Sales Managers to provide "strategic weight" on C-level.
Requirements
- You have a proven track record of navigating high-stakes, C-level negotiations and closing complex deals across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark.
- You possess the gravitas and presence needed to sit across from CMOs and Agency Heads, positioning Vend as a business-critical partner.
- You are fluent in the language of attribution, conversion, and ROI, with a deep understanding of the Ad-Tech and retail media ecosystem.
- You thrive in the "Nordic Strategy, Local Excellence" model, building trust internally by bridging the gap between HQ strategy and local market nuances.
- You are obsessed with moving the needle from tactical, short-term spends to predictable, "Always-On" revenue.
