Editorial Project Manager
Bradt Guides is looking for a Project Manager to join its editorial team. The role will involve managing approximately 12 titles a year from point of contract to delivery of material to the printer, including overseeing freelancers and outsourced books, as well as taking a role in the production of e-books and creating content for output to the website and social media channels. Very strong editorial and writing skills are essential (and will be tested as part of the application process); you should also demonstrate the ability to juggle tasks, meet deadlines and stay calm under pressure. You will have worked in publishing (ideally travel guides) for at least 3 years, have experience of project management and managing budgets, and be very computer literate. Familiarity with digital publishing and InDesign an advantage, but not essential; experience in using content management systems a strong advantage.
Based in Chesham, but hybrid working offered.
5 days a week.
