Career Makers #3: Brian York, Chief Marketing Officer at The Agora

There are many strange things that have transpired since my birth that have resulted in me writing this.

Some are more significant than others.

For example, that time I stole a packet of Flaming Hot Jawbreakers from the newsagent on Sandringham Road in Cleethorpes — that’s not so significant. It’s the only thing I ever stole. It didn’t make much of an impact.

But getting my first copywriting gig for Agora…

Well, that was pretty significant.

Like top three defining moments, maybe.

It’s up there.

And I know Nick would say the same.

I mean, obviously, his MOST defining moment was meeting me. But that wouldn’t have happened without him joining Agora, so kudos to Bill’s empire on that front.

Anyway, this is all to set some context as to why it’s so damn good that for our latest episode of Career Makers, Nick and I spoke to Brian York, the CMO at Agora.

As Nick points out, Brian is one of the most connected men in the Agora world, with responsibilities for growing the company in the US, UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Brazil, Japan, and elsewhere.

And guess what, he’s looking for curious folk to talk to about working for the financial publishing giant.

What’s he looking for? How do you get your foot in the door? What’s Brian’s big no-nos for trying to get a gig with Agora?

Well, you have to watch the episode for that.

We hope you find this useful and valuable and if you’re interested in the opportunity we talk about, do feel free to get in touch with us.

Best,
