Attitude is seeking a Senior Sales Executive

Attitude is seeking a media sales professional to take on a Senior Sales Executive role at the heart of the world’s biggest LGBTQ+ media brand, selling across print, digital, online, social, video and live events. How cool is that? Very cool, is the answer. In fact, we were voted the coolest place to work in gay media.*

For almost 30 years, Attitude has been (and remains) the best-selling gay magazine in the UK and Europe, and this multi-platform, legacy brand has established longstanding partnerships with the like of Virgin Atlantic, Jaguar, Unilever, Netflix, Bentley, Superdrug, Spotify, DS Automobiles, Amazon Prime Video, M&S and many more. We are happy to be judged by the company we keep.

We are based mid-way between London and Brighton (40 minutes from London Victoria by train) in a cool converted barn with a) countryside views b) air conditioning and c) a bar. Any or all maybe important to you. There is no judgement here.**
