As the founding member of the new Be the Difference employment initiative, Primas Media, publisher of Able Magazine, is looking to recruit disabled people into two important roles.

Primas Media is a Glasgow based, market leading publishing house. We have a track record of employing and developing disabled talent. We’re interested in hearing from disabled people that want to work in print media.

Case study: Terry, Production Manager

“I think I’m Primas Media’s longest-serving employee. I’ve been with them for 18 years. I’m a full-time wheelchair user but of course this doesn’t stop me carrying out my duties which include organising the position of advertising within our portfolio of publications and making the necessary arrangements with clients to receive their artwork on time.

Primas Media have helped me to develop a range of skills and have always ensured that access and facilities at their premises are perfectly accessible. Add to this that they have a flexible approach when it comes to medical appointments and other matters pertaining to my disability. In fact, I also care for my mum too and they’ve really supported me with this as well.

Publisher, Steve Craven, takes a personal interest in making sure staff are able to fulfil their roles fully, giving them any further support they require to carry out their duties to the best of their abilities.”

Sales Executive

Primas Media is looking for experienced sales professionals to join our team. You’ll need to be self-motivated and driven, with excellent communication skills, since we work in a consultative style. Ideally, you’ll have a proven track record in achieving sales targets, though not necessarily within an advertising sales environment.
Salary: £22,500 per annum, plus commission

Freelance Writer

Able Magazine is looking for passionate people that want to write about disability matters. We write from a positive framework so we’re interested in people that are keen to find the answers and solutions that make Able Magazine a ‘must read’ for disabled people.
Salary: Dependant per project

To receive full job description details of either of these opportunities, send a CV and covering letter outlining your experience and why you’d like to work with us to: btd@primasmedia.co.uk

As a Be the Difference and Disability Confident employer, Primas Media will interview any disabled person meeting minimum criteria as per the job description(s).
