Kevel is a remote-first company that values collaboration, innovation, and transparency. We are the leading API-first ad serving platform powering the next generation of retail media and commerce media networks. We enable retailers, marketplaces, and commerce platforms to build, operate, and scale their own advertising businesses - unlocking new revenue streams while maintaining full control over data, user experience, and monetization strategy.

Our customers rely on Kevel to power sponsored listings, offsite media, audience targeting, and advanced monetization capabilities. As commerce media continues to transform the advertising landscape, Kevel sits at the center - providing the infrastructure and expertise to help customers launch and scale high-growth media networks.

JOB OVERVIEW:

As a Client Partner, you will serve as the primary day-to-day commercial and operational partner for Kevel’s most strategic retail and commerce media customers.

The pay range for this position is between $170,000 - $200,000 OTE (combination of base + commission). An exact offer for this position will be determined based on the candidate's working location and experience level, in relation to our existing team.
