Our collaborative team prioritizes innovation and strategic decision-making, fostering a dynamic and inclusive culture where individuals are empowered to take ownership and drive impact.

With a fully remote workforce and team members located across North America and internationally, we prioritize strong cross-functional collaboration and regularly bring teams together for in-person events and industry gatherings.

As AdAction continues expanding globally, we are investing in growing our presence across Asia-Pacific (APAC), building strategic partnerships with leading publishers, mobile apps, and digital platforms throughout the region.

ABOUT THE ROLE

AdGem, part of AdAction, is on a growth streak — 8 straight quarters of quarter-over-quarter revenue growth — and we’re just getting started. AdGem has become one of the fastest-growing rewarded advertising platforms in the market, driving premium engagement for mobile apps, loyalty programs, and consumer brands.

We are seeking a Senior Strategic Partnerships Manager, APAC to help expand AdGem’s presence across the region by securing new integrations with leading mobile publishers, loyalty platforms, and digital partners.

This role will play a key part in establishing and growing AdGem’s partnerships across the APAC market.

This is a senior-level role designed for a proven ad tech closer — someone who can leverage an existing network, identify high-value opportunities, and independently manage complex partnership cycles from prospecting through integration.

The ideal candidate is a self-starter who thrives in an autonomous environment, owns their sales process end-to-end, and collaborates effectively with distributed internal teams across multiple time zones.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Identify, pursue, and close high-value integrations of AdGem into leading mobile apps, loyalty programs, and publisher platforms across APAC, with a strong focus on Southeast Asia and Greater China markets.

• Leverage an existing network and industry expertise to quickly establish new revenue-generating partnerships.

• Own the full strategic sales cycle — from prospecting and consultative selling through deal negotiation and contract execution.

• Serve as a trusted advisor to partners, aligning AdGem solutions with their monetization and user engagement goals.

• Work closely with globally distributed teams across product, operations, and account management to ensure successful onboarding and long-term partner growth.

• Represent AdGem at key APAC industry events, conferences, and networking opportunities to grow brand awareness and pipeline.

• Maintain strong market intelligence across the APAC ad tech ecosystem, identifying emerging verticals and partnership opportunities.

• Accurately forecast revenue and maintain a disciplined, strategic pipeline within the CRM.

EXPERIENCE & QUALIFICATIONS

• 4+ years of experience in ad tech, mobile advertising, or performance marketing sales with a proven track record of closing strategic partnerships.

• Strong existing network within mobile publishing, loyalty, rewards, or ad monetization ecosystems, particularly within the APAC market.

• Demonstrated ability to independently manage a full sales cycle and develop new partnerships from the ground up.

• Fluency in English (required).

• Additional regional language proficiency such as Mandarin or Cantonese is a strong plus.

• Fluency in AI concepts and applications as they relate to ad tech, user acquisition, and monetization.

• Deep understanding of ad tech KPIs (CPI, eCPM, ARPDAU, retention, etc.).

• Excellent communication skills (verbal and written) with the ability to present complex solutions clearly to both technical and business stakeholders.

• Experience working with CRMs (HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.).

• Strong analytical and strategic thinking skills, including proficiency with Excel or similar tools.

• Highly self-motivated, entrepreneurial, and comfortable operating in a remote-first, high-growth environment.

• Experience collaborating with international teams across time zones.

• Willingness to travel for client meetings and industry events across APAC.

• Based in the APAC market.
