Business Lead Candidate

MyAnimeList, the anime and manga community and database used by more than ten million people a month, joined the Gaudiy group in May 2025 and is hiring a Senior Account Executive and Business Lead candidate for its advertising business. The person leads both clients and the internal team from proposal through delivery and review, and is meant to own each client rather than hand a won deal to others.

Duties include being the contact point for domestic client accounts, hearing their goals and proposing campaigns that use MyAnimeList's advertising, editorial tie-ins, community programmes, user research and data; adjusting conditions, reviewing results and growing existing accounts; organising requirements for won projects and working with the ad-operations, production and editorial staff; spotting risks and taking responsibility for quality and results; preparing proposals and quotes; managing the pipeline and sales forecast; and improving ad products, pricing and workflows. In a small team, the person also does hands-on work such as preparing client materials and launching new initiatives, with a path toward leading the whole advertising business.
