About the Role
Introduction – the ‘why’
This role offers a strong opportunity to be part of OUP’s expanding supplier‑led production model—an increasingly important part of how ELT content is created and delivered globally. As a Supplier Delivery Coordinator, you will contribute directly to the fast, reliable, and scalable delivery of ELT products by supporting content, design, media, and digital production workflows.
For those already in a job, this move offers a positive change into a structured, process‑driven operational environment where you collaborate with both UK‑based teams and international suppliers. You will be part of the offshore Noida operations team, enabling smoother execution for Content Commissioning Leads, Product Managers, and the Supplier Led Delivery function. You will also work with modern delivery systems, workflow standards, and evolving AI‑driven tools that enhance accuracy, efficiency, and operational transparency.
