The Audit DB lets you query failed jobs and reports. I have an Event Agent set up, running every 15 minutes during office hours to look for any failed jobs or reports in the previous 15 minutes and to issue an email with error details. By default the email issues to me and the Audit package does not include the users email address but I'm building up a small reference table to convert user names to email addresses as jobs/reports fail to issue them to the submitting user automatically e.g.

Note:
Where this failure says Unable to deliver the output of the report the report was probably too large to send by email - please download the report and distribute it manually
Where this failure is the result of a deadlock, the report may still have appeared to complete successfully however the report may be missing some data. We recommend rerunning the report in this situation.
Where this failure is the result of a timeout and the report has run successfully in the past, please resubmit the report. If this is a new report and you are experiencing a timeout, please review the report logic.
Where this failure is the result of missing parameters e.g. "The required parameters ..... are defined but have no value", the parameter values used by the report must be set before rerunning the report - contact x@y.com for guidance
