Salary benchmarks
Our take
Future is a global multi-platform media company, a leading digital publisher and a member of the FTSE 250 group. Every month, it connects over 400 million people worldwide with their passions through content, events, and proprietary technology. Future attracts millions of consumers every year to its brands’ websites, magazines, events, and social spaces.
In 2021, Future helped retail partners make just under £1bn in sales. Future’s commission for doing so — £216mn — made up more than a third of its total revenues. Its market-leading portfolio of over 240 brands includes Marie Claire, Wallpaper, Homes & Gardens and Tom’s Guide.
Future reaches 41% of the total US online audience, and half of the 18-49 age demographic. The company's monthly audience reach in the US reflects a 19% year-over-year increase - reaching 113 million online adults by December 2021. This growth spurred global eCommerce sales in 2021, with Future’s special interest content resulting in 13 million transactions equating to over $1 billion in sales. However, in 2023, its revenue dropped by 4% spurring the stepping down of the company's CFO and a new 2-year financial plan to bring the company back to its former performance.
