About the Role

We’re looking for a commercially minded, analytical Account Manager to join our Content Team, a team that sits at the very heart of Readly’s business. 

In this high-impact role, you’ll be responsible for Readly’s international content portfolio working with some of the world’s most prestigious publishers. Your remit goes far beyond relationship management: you’ll be driving growth, leading contract negotiations, onboarding new publishers and ensuring Readly remains at the cutting edge of digital publishing.

With a particular focus on bringing international titles onto the platform, this role is key to strengthening our diverse and international content offering. You’ll act as a trusted partner to publishers, a visible ambassador for Readly and a key driver of our commercial success.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and grow publisher partnerships: Act as the main point of contact for a portfolio of publishers, building deep, trusted relationships with senior stakeholders.

• Drive commercial outcomes: Negotiate and manage contracts to secure long-term, mutually beneficial agreements and increase overall value.

• Unlock growth through insights: Analyse publisher performance, identify opportunities, and drive improvements in revenue, readership, and retention.

• Expand our content portfolio: Pitch, negotiate and onboard new publishers – with a particular focus on newspapers and international magazine brands.

• Support publisher success: Empower publishers to use Readly's tools and analytics, ensuring they understand our platform, revenue model and how to act on insights.

• Be Readly’s voice in the industry: Represent us at market meetings, task forces and events, strengthening our brand and relationships across the publishing ecosystem.

• Collaborate cross-functionally: Work closely with colleagues in Marketing, Product and Analytics to deliver a seamless and impactful publisher experience.

• Contribute globally: Share knowledge, learnings and best practices across markets to support our international content strategy and team development.

What We’re Looking For

• Someone who builds tight, strategic partnerships through trust, consistency, and a deep understanding of client needs. Experience in business development, account management or partnerships (media/publishing preferred but not essential).

• Pitch and negotiation skills, with a track record of delivering commercial outcomes.
  Excellent presentation and communication skills, confident with senior stakeholders.

• Highly organised and proactive, able to juggle multiple objects and priorities.

• A genuine interest in media, news and digital publishing.

• Analytical mindset with the ability to turn data into insights and communicate them clearly.

• Comfortable explaining platform economics and value creation to a range of stakeholders.

• Fluent/native English and fluent in Swedish (additional languages such as German are a plus).

Why Work With Us

At Readly, you’ll be joining a team that sits at the very heart of the business, managing some of our most high-profile publisher relationships and driving growth in some of our most important markets. We’re passionate about what we do and we’re looking for someone who wants to grow with us.
