Job description

What you’ll be doing

Working with the digital operations and supply chain team, the successful candidate will work to ensure that Hachette UK’s range of digital products is supplied efficiently and accessibly to our customers, priced appropriately and accurately for our global markets. This will involve working closely with HUK’s publishing divisions and those based overseas such as Hachette Book Group USA, production teams and supply chain partners and customers.

Who we are looking for

The successful candidate will have an eye for detail, an approach of continuous improvement to our processes and tasks and the ability to deliver accurately to tight deadlines. As a point of contact for retailers, HUK divisional publishers and third-party distributors, excellent communication skills are required to provide high standards of customer services. Excellent IT skills are essential, particularly Excel and PowerPoint. Knowledge of ONIX, EPUB, Ingram CoreSource and Biblio3 would be valuable but prior publishing experience is not essential.

What we offer

Our staff are our greatest asset and our benefits reflect this. In addition to 28 days annual leave days per year + bank holidays, we have an extensive list of benefits that include: a wide-ranging training library, development programmes including mentoring, Cycle to Work vouchers, Private Medical Insurance, eye care vouchers, up to 70% off book purchases, a charity book shelf, 2 community days per year, many employee networks to join, summer hours (finishing at 1pm on Fridays during the summer months!), season ticket loans, rent deposit loans, generous pension schemes and much more!

This role can be based at our London, Edinburgh or Sheffield office, with a blend of in-office (3 days) and homeworking (2 days) per week.

Our Commitment

Hachette employs people on the basis of their abilities. We aim to attract and develop talent from a base as broad as the world of readers we want to reach, with a wide and representative range of age, faith, disability, race, gender, sexuality and socio-economic, regional and cultural backgrounds.

If you are shortlisted and need us to make any adjustments to help you attend for interview, please let us know.

The Book Trade Charity offers financial support to people looking to enter the book trade but who may struggle to afford the costs of attending interviews and undertaking junior roles. For more information visit www.booktradeentrysupport.org
