PointRoll, a wholly owned subsidiary of Gannett Co., Inc., is a leading provider of rich media marketing services. Founded in 2000, the Company enables advertisers, agencies and online publishers to measurably increase conversion opportunity, brand awareness, creative expressions, and message content without disrupting the users' online experience.

PointRoll is a fast paced, high energy organization with explosive growth potential. Our clients are advertisers and agencies including over half of the Fortune 500 companies. The people we invest in and reward must be progressive thinkers and day-to-day doers, rather than those that get pulled along. We are always looking for great talent to join our team! Our corporate headquarters is located in Conshohocken PA, but we also have offices in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Atlanta, United Kingdom, Toronto, Washington DC, and Detroit.
