Realize your potential by joining the leading performance-driven advertising company! As the Advertising Director, Turkey, you will own and grow Taboola's advertiser business with Turkey as your primary market and engine of growth.

Success in this role is your team's relentless prospecting and pipeline development, new client acquisition and activation, client retention and growth, and achievement against aggressive total revenue goals across multiple markets and currencies. This is not a role for someone who says "I wouldn't chase that" — you set the culture, lead by example, and your team takes its cues from you. Our culture and win-win approach to partnerships demand passion, accountability and a real sense of professional urgency every single day, alongside the cultural fluency to win across very different markets. To thrive in this role, you'll need: An ex
