Vistar Media
Senior Product Manager
Vistar Media, Philadelphia, PA
Out-of-Home (OOH) is the fastest growing channel in advertising. From billboards to retail media to urban panels, 98% of us see at least one OOH advertisement every week. It's a part of life. As the pioneer in OOH technology, we build solutions that help brands find their audience in the right place at the right time, on digital signage networks around the corner, or around the world.
About us:
Vistar Media is the home of out-of-home (OOH). As a global ad tech company and the world's largest digital out-of-home (DOOH) advertising marketplace, we offer technology designed to make buying and selling OOH media easier. Our goal is simple: to help the world's marketers leverage OOH's unique ability to motivate and delight.
From strategic partnerships with major media owner networks to executing impactful campaigns with renowned global brands such as Nestlé, Porsche, Target, and Levi's, our team is filled with passionate, innovative, and collaborative problem solvers, engaging and entertaining consumers like you in the real world. Find your home in out-of-home - find your people at Vistar.
Through its recent acquisition of Adstruc - the leading platform for planning and buying traditional OOH media - Vistar is now poised to address the >$20B global market for non-digital OOH advertising. For nearly 15 years, Adstruc's SaaS product has automated the workflow for buying and selling traditional OOH, unlocking immeasurable time savings and powering hundreds of millions of dollars in OOH spend.
We're looking for an experienced Product Manager to lead the strategy and execution of initiatives for this new addition to the Vistar Media portfolio of products. As Adstruc's Product Manager, you'll work closely with engineering, business-facing teams, and external stakeholders to manage the full product lifecycle process - from idea conception to defining product specs and requirements, go-to-market launch, and deploying future iterations based on market feedback. This role offers an exciting opportunity to influence and shape the development of a product that is poised to revolutionize the centuries-old business of traditional OOH advertising. You'll drive the evolution of the Adstruc platform from a workflow tool that supports how OOH is bought and sold today to a platform that propels traditional OOH advertising into a future that is governed by programmatic principles.
