Programmatic Sales Manager at StackAdapt - Remote UK — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
Remote-first, but England-based only. This role is explicitly restricted to candidates based in England, which significantly limits flexibility for true digital nomads. You must be a UK resident — working from abroad on a tourist or nomad visa in another country would likely violate your employment terms and potentially UK tax residency rules.
Timezone constraints: As a client-facing sales role targeting UK agencies and brands, expect working hours aligned to GMT/BST (9am–6pm). The role requires occasional in-person client meetings within the region and access to London WeWork hubs, so genuine location-independence within Europe is not realistic here.
Salary in context: The £59,027–£81,162 base (plus commission) is solid for a UK-based remote sales role. For reference:
- London: This is a comfortable mid-range salary given London's high cost of living, especially if you're remote and avoiding London rent.
- North of England / Wales: This salary stretches considerably further — remote workers in cities like Manchester, Leeds, or Sheffield enjoy a strong lifestyle-to-income ratio.
- Within England remotely: The work-from-home reimbursement and optional WeWork access add real value for those who want flexibility without a fixed commute.
What to look for instead if you're a true nomad: seek programmatic advertising sales roles that explicitly state "work from anywhere" or list multiple allowed countries. This role suits someone settled in England who wants remote flexibility within the UK.

- Revive and expand existing opportunities by re-engaging lapsed customers and uncovering new areas for growth
- Maintain strong sales discipline, keeping pipeline data accurate and up to date in CRM systems
