Strategic Partnerships Team Overview at InMobi
The Strategic Partnerships team at InMobi plays a pivotal role in managing and nurturing key relationships with strategic partners across the global ad tech ecosystem. Our primary responsibility is to design and execute strategies that not only grow InMobi’s Exchange and Publisher platform but also enhance our competitive positioning in the marketplace.
Our focus is twofold: to stay ahead of emerging technologies in the ad tech space and to forge critical partnerships with organizations that are developing and driving those innovations. By doing so, we aim to expand InMobi’s market share and strengthen our reputation as an industry leader.
Key Areas of Focus: Measurement & Attribution
In particular, the team will concentrate on two critical aspects of the ad tech ecosystem: Measurement and Attribution. These areas are central to understanding and optimizing the effectiveness of campaigns.
By collaborating with partners across the measurement and attribution landscape, we ensure that InMobi’s platform delivers measurable results aligned with the objectives and KPIs set by brands and agencies. This collaboration extends to providing our sales and agency teams with actionable tools and insights to track and assess campaign performance. Through these efforts, we help advertisers understand the direct impact of their campaigns on InMobi, thereby building deeper, more strategic relationships with them.
As the Sr. Manager, Strategic Partnerships, you will play a key role in driving the growth and success of our strategic initiatives. You will collaborate closely with product teams and work cross-functionally with various internal Go-To-Market (GTM) business teams to align on strategic objectives and execution plans. One of your primary responsibilities will be to source, identify, and evaluate new potential strategic partners by analyzing industry data, market trends, and actionable insights to inform key business decisions.
In addition, you will engage deeply with both current and prospective partners, building and nurturing relationships that influence and drive meaningful business outcomes. By leveraging your strategic thinking and industry knowledge, you will help shape partnerships that unlock new opportunities, enhance product offerings, and contribute to InMobi's long-term business growth.
