Supervisor, Ad Operations (AdTech Experience Required)

What You’ll Bring 

TransUnion is looking to hire a Sr. Lead (Supervisor), Ad Operations as a member of our Measurement Integration Operations team. 

Applicants must have extensive hands-on Ad Operations experience — this is a strict requirement

We are looking for candidates with hands-on ownership of ad trafficking, pixel implementation, and deep troubleshooting experience within ad servers and measurement platforms.

This includes ensuring seamless execution of integrations, consistent delivery workflows, data quality oversight, and efficient issue resolution across external ad tech platforms. 

In addition, this role requires the ability to lead and prioritize operational initiatives, collaborate cross-functionally, and provide clear, actionable guidance to internal teams (i.e., Product, Sales, Engineering), partners, and clients. A strong focus on process optimization, documentation, scalability, and continuous improvement is essential to maintaining reliable platform performance and a high-quality client experience.
