About CreativeX

CreativeX is B2B SaaS technology platform that helps global marketing teams make smarter creative decisions and elevate creative expression through the clarity of data. Our technology powers creative decision-making at some of the biggest brands in the world, including Google, Unilever, Pepsi, Bayer, Mondelez, Heineken, and more.

We use computer vision and other machine learning techniques to extract creative data from our client’s digital advertising copy and transform those previously dark signals into a standardised data model at industrial scale. This creates a new, unique and powerful first party data set that represents the last and most impactful untapped reservoir of advertising performance.

That’s because multiple studies have shown that the “Creative” itself is responsible for half of sales lift online, higher than reach, targeting, brand, & recency combined. But creative impact has always been the least analysed and least understood component of a complex set of marketing variables.

This is the problem CreativeX is focussed on solving. We’re an end-to-end solution to ingest, process, and analyse content at scale. We help brands isolate creative elements so they can be analysed against downstream ad impact metrics, from clickthrough rates to brand lift.

Our objective is to help marketing organisations power every creative decision with data.

Job Description:

Managing an enterprise sales team of Global Client Partners (GCP’s) and reporting to the VP of Sales, you will be responsible for the team’s successful execution of our Client Journey & value delivery to achieve company retention and expansion growth targets (For clarity, this is managing a sales team, not a client success team).

This requires GCP’s to consult clients on the use of our technology and data, while also partnering with their creative ecosystem (Meta, Google, agencies, measurement partners etc), to transform the way that creative data informs their marketing strategy & delivers value to the client. Our customers use our tech to build board-facing reporting and to drive global transformation initiatives.  Each GCP is the architect and owner of our joint business plan and runs a pod dedicated to their customers.
