Company expansion / Hiring Market: Screen On Demand names UK country manager
Screen On Demand (SoD) is launching a dedicated UK operation based in London and has appointed Dan Ward as Country Manager UK to lead the local team and grow the British business. The Munich-founded adtech provider offers cross-device high-impact advertising and combines data management, creative services and media distribution on its platform, with campaign delivery across mobile, web, DOOH and Connected TV. SoD says it has run campaigns for international clients in the UK for years and will now scale the market with a local subsidiary. The company — founded in 2017 and employing about 60 people (roughly 50 in Germany) — already operates offices in Vienna, Paris and Stockholm in addition to German locations.
SoD's launch of a UK subsidiary and appointment of a local country manager increases competition and local supply of high-impact multi-screen inventory in a major European ad market; relevant to advertisers and agencies but not industry-shifting.
