Raconteur reviews

I worked at Raconteur for 2.5 years and learnt a lot. I joined as a publishing manager and was promoted to lead publisher after 9 months. The role is very challenging and stressful at times, but also incredibly rewarding. You're constantly encouraged to learn and develop as a person and surrounded by a supportive and collaborative team. It's rare that you get to work in sales teams which are genuinely happy for you when you perform well as it's usually very competitive - but definitely not the case with Raconteur. If you're ambitions, hard working and switched on, you'll love it here

1 - Top class culture - Everyone from the sales teams through to design, production and marketing are collaborative and huge fun. 2 - Independence - This is a company which rewards hard work with strong degree of independence. So long as you are putting in the effort and doing your best, you decide how you work. 3 - Entrepreneurial - it doesn't matter how long you have been in the business your opinion still matters and you can carve out your own destiny to a certain degree (i.e. launching new products, leading internal initiatives etc) 4 - Training - I joined as a Publishing Manager with no experience in B2B sales whatsoever. I was concerned that (a) I would be thrown into the deep end and (b) that I would be joining a 'Wolf of Wallstreet' style sales team. Both couldn't have been further from the truth - there is so much training and support, and this is intelligent sales rather than smashing the phones.
