The Value We Bring to Your Hiring Strategy

At Live Digital, the focus is not just on recruitment — it’s on aligning talent with commercial goals, product vision, and long-term scalability. Here’s how we add value:

Understanding AdTech Complexity


AdTech roles require a hybrid skill set — data fluency, technical understanding, and marketing intelligence. We identify professionals who can operate across these intersections.

Alignment with Privacy & Compliance

As privacy regulations evolve (GDPR, CCPA, IAB TCF), we prioritise candidates who understand compliance, data governance, and transparent measurement.

Access to Hard-to-Find Talent

The most successful AdTech professionals rarely apply for jobs. Through direct sourcing, niche networks, and discreet outreach, we connect you with candidates who aren’t visible on the open market.

 

Boutique, High-Attention Support

As a solo consultancy led by Jacob, Live Digital provides a level of precision, communication, and consistency that large agencies often can’t match.
You work directly with a specialist from start to finish.

Insight into SaaS & Product-Led Growth

AdTech is built on SaaS models. That means subscription economics, churn reduction, onboarding, and product adoption. We recruit professionals who understand this environment.

Key Areas of AdTech Innovation

3. AI & Machine Learning in AdTech

 

From predictive bidding algorithms to automated creative optimisation, we place ML engineers and AI product managers driving the next wave of AdTech intelligence.
