Sales Recruitment for Media & MarTech
Retained search for senior media, AdTech and MarTech commercial leaders.
Salford's MediaCityUK and the wider Greater Manchester media cluster, alongside Channel 4's Leeds national HQ, give the North of England a uniquely deep media, broadcast and AdTech commercial base. This is the youngest of the North's major commercial sectors but one of the fastest growing.
Media and MarTech commercial roles combine enterprise software GTM with deep partnerships and creative-industries fluency. Evara's partners have placed senior commercial leaders into AdTech, MarTech and broadcast-tech businesses across the North.
Media and MarTech commercial salaries broadly track SaaS for equivalent seats, with broadcast and major-platform partnerships roles attracting a mild premium.
How we work
01
We start with a structured kick-off that captures the commercial objective, not just the title. Reporting line, comp envelope, the deal sizes the person will sell, the buyers they will sell to, and the behaviours that will succeed in your environment.
02
We map where the right people actually sit, across direct competitors, adjacent industries and proven environments in your region. This becomes the long-list of candidates we approach, not just whoever is on the job boards this week.
03
Candidates are approached with a clear commercial narrative, not a job advert. We communicate the opportunity, the leadership environment, the expectations and the growth path, so only genuinely relevant people move forward.
04
Two structured commercial screens before a candidate ever reaches you. Track record validation, deal-stage probing, motivation, and a credibility check on the numbers they have actually delivered.
05
You receive a considered shortlist, not a CV flood. Each candidate is presented with strengths, potential risks and a fit assessment. We then support the process through to offer, acceptance and the first 90 days.

FAQs
Yes. Senior commercial leaders for AdTech, MarTech and broadcast-tech businesses are a recurring part of our work, particularly across Salford, Manchester and Leeds.
A typical retained search runs 6 to 10 weeks from kick-off to offer accepted. Director-level searches sit at the longer end of that range. We will not rush a shortlist to hit an arbitrary deadline.
No. Every Evara search is retained on a two-payment structure: a commitment deposit paid up front to cover the strategic work, and a completion fee invoiced on day 60 of the placed candidate's employment. This protects the rigour of the process and means we are accountable for the outcome, not for activity.
