We have the following vacancies. If you are suitably qualified and have a passion for travel and/or publishing we’d love to hear from you.
Sales Executive (part time)
We’re looking for a part-time Sales Executive. The job is envisaged to require 3 hours per day (15 per week), although there is some flexibility around this, and ideally will be mainly based at our office on Chesham High Street, although it could be adapted for wholly remote working for the right candidate.
It’s a wide-ranging role incorporating a number of administrative tasks, including monitoring sales of our books, communicating with retailers and sales agents around the world, maintaining sales and metadata spreadsheets and online submissions forms, responding to customer queries and providing support for our website sales.
The successful candidate will be confident, energetic and superbly organised, with a keen eye for detail and the ability to prioritise, problem-solve and multi-task. Excellent communication skills and confidence in Excel are essential. Familiarity with Woo Commerce (or other online retail platforms) and experience of publishing would be an advantage, but is not essential.
Applicants should email a CV and covering letter to [email protected]. The closing date is 31st January 2025.
