Bio

Rob Wilk is the Chief Revenue Officer of Yahoo. Yahoo operates under private equity ownership by Apollo Global Management and has been working to reestablish itself as a major player in digital advertising, leveraging owned-and-operated properties including Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Sports, and Yahoo Mail, as well as a DSP and SSP technology stack. Wilk joined Yahoo as global head of consumer sales and moved into the CRO role three months later, with a central focus on building a new ad sales team centered on selling Yahoo's own inventory. Before Yahoo, he spent nearly eight years at Microsoft, where as Corporate VP and global head of advertising he oversaw the company's search, native, and connected-TV advertising business, representing approximately $10 billion in annual revenue and a team of nearly 2,000 employees. Earlier in his career, he served as founding VP of sales at Foursquare, building its sales team and leading initiatives across brand and agency partners, and prior to that held multiple sales and account management roles at Yahoo focused on search.
