Ad Operations Analyst

TL;DR

Fast-growing measurement company seeking a versatile Data Analyst eager to transform data into actionable insights for leading brands and agencies. Ideal for a proactive problem-solver who can balance autonomy with responsiveness in a role where quiet stretches and urgent deliverables often coexist.


Who we are

Adelaide is the leader in one of the fastest-growing areas of digital advertising: attention metrics. 


Since 2020, we’ve been a trusted measurement partner for 40% of Fortune 50 companies. They rely on our metric, AU, to maximize the effectiveness of media spend. AU is “the attention economy's most widely recognized metric,” according to Adweek, and we swept the measurement category in the 2024 Adexchanger awards.


Our business is growing rapidly—we’ve doubled revenue in just 18 months and grew our team by 45% last year. Earlier this year, in partnership with The New York Times, we launched Adelaide for Publishers, the next step in our vision to create a more fair and equitable marketplace for media.


Adelaide is backed by prominent investors such as Human Ventures (Joe Marchese), Aperiam Ventures (Joe Zawadzki & Eric Franchi), WGI (Jonah Goodhart), and Irwin Gotlieb.


While we have an office in NYC, we’re very remote-friendly and support flexible work arrangements. 


How we operate

We are a team of action-oriented doers; management rolls up their sleeves to contribute daily. Our culture is rooted in curiosity and loosely held but rigorously vetted opinions; everyone is encouraged to contribute to planning and strategy.
