Project Management & Sales within Publishing

We an award-winning London based publishing house that produce special reports and supplements exclusively for The Times, The Sunday Times and The Week.

With the freshest ideas and strongest momentum in the market, we are a high growth company with tremendous prospects for the future. We endeavour to attract candidates that replicate our characteristics as a business: entrepreneurial, brave, with an energetic can-do attitude.

We are seeking first-class individuals with a passion for publishing & business. The role is similar to that of a movie producer: get the script, finance it by pitching investors and hand-pick the team that is going to create it.

As a Publishing Manager, you will be project managing five different print projects a year with responsibility for the entire project lifecycle, from conception to the finished product. Responsibilities include managing research, editorial commissioning, production and sales on each of these five publications being produced for The Times/Sunday Times. You will be expected to set up meetings to pitch high-level Directors across all sectors of industry and work with some of the UK`s leading journalists and editors.

This is an extremely demanding role in a high pressured business environment, which can be very rewarding. We offer a basic salary of £30,000 first year and a realistic OTE of £51,000 – top performers higher. Previous sales experience in the media industry is not a pre- requisite, but you need to be a first-class operator in whatever tasks and challenges you undertake.
