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 the UK and ROI's largest commercial news publisher. We reach 70% of the UK's online population, 10% of the US online population, and over 100 million social followers around the world, reflecting 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.

You will develop, produce, and direct both short and long-form original video content for the All Out Football channel across YouTube and social platforms, driving audience growth and engagement. Overseeing the full production lifecycle, you'll create a diverse range of content--from weekly studio shows to premium documentaries--while applying strong editorial judgment and storytelling skills to fast-paced, news-led projects.


Balancing multiple projects at once, you'll keep workflows efficient and strategies aligned with current social trends. Collaboration is key as you work closely with videographers, editors, creatives, and strategists, ideally bringing strong edit producing skills to the team. As a YouTube native, you'll spot emerging talent and creators for potential partnerships, manage casting and talent with rigorous duty of care, and actively contribute ideas in development sessions with senior editorial teams.


You'll pitch and script adaptable formats for live streams, podcasts, social videos, digital shorts, and longer features--always considering platform-specific constraints. You'll brief specialist teams to deliver on your creative vision, meet tight deadlines, and maintain a high output of innovative content. Staying ahead of social media trends ensures our content remains fresh and relevant. Above all, you will uphold Reach's commitment to diversity, inclusion, and non-discrimination in everything we publish.

Qualifications

You have a solid track record in creating engaging social content for YouTube and other platforms, confidently working alongside clients and stakeholders to deliver outstanding results. Forward-thinking and highly organised, you excel at planning and coordinating complex shoots across the UK, both in studio settings and on location.


Creativity, initiative, and problem-solving are second nature to you--you thrive on generating ideas and turning them into successful projects. Your finger is always on the pulse of sports culture, allowing you to spot emerging trends and personalities that keep our content relevant and exciting.


Whether working independently or as part of a collaborative team, you bring positivity, motivation, and a willingness to tackle any challenge. Your attention to detail ensures nothing is overlooked, even when working to tight deadlines. Adept at every stage of content development--from storyboarding and scripting to editing--you know how to craft compelling narratives and confidently pitch your ideas to others.
