Job description

Who we are
We create trusted, expert content that helps millions of people discover more about the things they love, need and care about. From technology, gaming and entertainment to fashion, lifestyle, sport, finance and beyond, our specialist brands connect people with their passions every day.

Across websites, magazines, newsletters, social channels and events, we bring expert content to audiences around the world. We combine our deep specialist knowledge with innovative technology and data to create engaging experiences, build valuable communities and help people make better-informed decisions.

Behind it all are our people - passionate experts, creators, innovators and problem-solvers who are shaping the future of media.

The Team You’ll Join

The Audience AI team sits at the heart of Future’s AI strategy. Operating across the UK and US, with partners around the globe, we focus on increasing the visibility of our brands across LLMs and other AI platforms, scaling successful opportunities and helping commercial partners improve their visibility across AI search through our Future Optic product.

As a developing area within the business, we work closely with editorial, audience development, client success and commercial teams to manage campaign delivery, benchmarking, reporting and effectiveness measurement.

Commercial Support

• Supporting new business opportunities by contributing GEO expertise to pitches and proposals
• Producing analysis and insight for prospective client opportunities
• Working alongside commercial teams to articulate campaign approaches and expected outcomes
• Supporting long-term client success through effective campaign delivery and clear communication of results
