About us

Hello, we’re Reach. Every day, our trusted news, stories and content connect with millions of people where they live - whether that’s on their social feed or at their neighbourhood newsstand; through their local community or their take on the hot topic of the day.

We're home to more than 120 brands - from household names like the Mirror, Express, Daily Star and Daily Record, to local titles like MyLondon, BelfastLive, and the Manchester Evening News, and brands making a splash in the US like the Irish Star.

It's our ability to understand people and the things that matter to them that makes us Britain and Ireland's largest commercial news publisher. We reach around 70% of the UK's online population, 10% of the US online population, and over 100 million social followers around the world, connecting with them on who they are, where they live and what they love.

Your story, with Reach

As a modern media organisation, we're much more than just news. And it takes a wide range of people and skills to serve diverse audiences, customers and communities like we do.

We know everyone has their own story to tell, so we’ve built an environment where every background is respected and every day is a day to explore.

We’ll help you build a career that works with your life, while giving you the space to create and grow.

About this role

We’re seeking an Agency Business Manager to join our award winning Reach Studio!  We are looking for a first rate media sales person who is able to give us an unfair advantage in winning content partnership briefs, helping us drive revenue and propel our reputation further using your connections & experience of the market.

In this role your patch will be large with limited territory restrictions, allowing you to work creatively and strategically to meet your goals. Your experience in the media content and agency world will allow you to develop and implement a strategy for success, where you will obtain briefs, increase conversion rates on pitches, develop proactive opportunities and maintain excellent agency relationships.

Not based in Manchester? That’s fine! As long as you’re available to come into the office on a weekly basis (we’re open on how many days you’d like to come in each week) then we’re open on location for the right person.

What you need to succeed

In a nutshell, we’re looking for a proactive media sales individual with solid experience either with a media owner or media agency. It’s key that you have excellent knowledge of the landscape, and you’ll have an excellent profile in the media industry with influential relationships across agency planning and content teams.

It is essential that you possess strong working knowledge of the branded content marketplace as well as Digital, National and Regional Press media. You’ll be an expert in relationship building with the ability to build a strong network of internal stakeholder relationships, and will be able to think commercially in order to identify and maximise revenue opportunities.

So, if you have a track record for hunting down new business opportunities, are focussed on understanding your clients’ needs, and have an infectious enthusiasm and passion for digital first content solutions, this might just be the role for you!

How we'll look after you

We take good care of our people - and that means more than just a pay packet. Whatever your role, you'll get a range of benefits, including:

• 25 days' holiday (plus bank holidays), as well as an extra day after you've been with us for three, five and 10 years. We also have a scheme to help you buy extra holiday if you want to.

• An extra day's paid leave each year to volunteer for a cause close to your community or your heart.

• Big moment day - an extra day’s paid leave for a moment that matters to you - like getting married, moving house or welcoming a new addition to the family (human or furry!)

• Bonus scheme - you'll get a stake in our success and a chance to add to your annual earnings.

• Help saving for your retirement - we'll match your company pension contributions up to 6% and you can contribute through salary sacrifice.

• Supportive and progressive people policies - we’re proud to have a range of policies to support people in their lives in and outside work, including enhanced family leave and policies to promote flexibility, inclusion and progression. We believe you shouldn’t have to wait to join us to know what to expect from us, which is why we share this overview of the policies we have in place to support families and carers. If there's something you want to understand more about, just ask - it won’t make a difference to your application.

• A healthcare cash plan - giving you money back for a range of medical expenses and fast access to doctor's appointments.

• Car lease scheme - you can buy a brand new electric or hybrid car through our leasing partner, and pay for it through salary sacrifice.

• Wellbeing support - including a 24/7 assistance programme for you and your family.

• Access to lots of discounts - including 15% off with Reach's very own online marketplace, Yimbly, where you can buy everything from homewares to beauty products.
