Your career with us
We believe that the creativity and talent
of our people enable us to grow successfully
in the face of a constantly changing
publishing landscape. We know our teams
work because of people’s differences,
so we value diverse backgrounds just as
much as we value energy, creativity, commitment
and, of course, a passion for
books!
We offer a range of opportunities across
a wide spectrum of roles in publishing and
distribution, from Editorial, Sales and Marketing
through to Digital, Production and
Operations.
We also welcome work experience
placements all year round in a variety of
publishing functions—last year more than
150 people came through our doors. Often
these placements lead to permanent roles
and are a fantastic way to find out about
the industry, develop your publishing
skills and make an informed choice about
whether this is the right industry for you.
