Maria De Aurrecoechea

Maria is a strategic, operational leader who brings deep expertise in programmatic advertising and digital media—and applies that same rigor to sales compensation by turning complex incentive mechanics into clear, scalable systems that drive revenue.

As a Global Business Strategy & Operations lead, she’s built and optimized end-to-end post-sales workflows, ad operations, and go-to-market motions with a sharp focus on speed to spend, measurable performance, and cross-functional alignment. She understands how revenue is actually created (and where it gets stuck), and she uses that insight to design compensation approaches that reward the right behaviors, reduce friction between Sales, Ops, and Finance, and improve predictability at scale.

With experience across Spain, Ireland, Argentina, and the U.S., Maria has led high-performing teams through hyper-growth, org transformation, and product expansion—bringing an owner’s mindset, strong operational discipline, and data-driven decision-making. She’s especially effective at creating systems and playbooks that standardize execution, strengthen accountability, and improve both rep outcomes and business results.

Her hands-on platform background includes Google’s programmatic stack (DV360, Campaign Manager, Google Ad Manager) and a strong understanding of buyer dynamics across major DSPs like The Trade Desk and Xandr in omnichannel environments.
