Production Controller

We are looking for an experienced Production Controller to join a busy and skilled team, working on both LTK and Stripes. 

LTK produce innovative novelty books designed to educate and entertain. The range includes noisy touch-and-feel books, lift-the flap and pop-up titles, sticker books, tabbed board books, jigsaw sets and much more on a list of both illustrated and photographic titles. Your duties would include managing all new titles on the frontlist and producing the extensive backlist.

Through Stripes Publishing we produce a range of engaging fiction for six year olds to teens. We publish commercial, prize-winning titles that stimulate children's imaginations. Our most recent YA anthology, A CHANGE IS GONNA COME, has generated a lot of discussion, as it showcases diversity in publishing. You would be responsible for the complete list, front and back, which covers both one-colour and four-colour print.

The job will involve the fulfilment of titles from receipt of files to delivery, working directly with suppliers both in the UK and in the Far East, coordinating schedules, managing co-edition print runs and negotiating print prices. Therefore, the ability to communicate clearly and effectively with both in-house departments and external suppliers is essential.

The ideal candidate will already be working within a book production environment, with a minimum of two year's experience. They will have strong organisational and problem-solving skills as well as a can-do attitude. 

For further information, email a CV and cover letter stating current salary details to lbaird@littletiger.co.uk

All applications to be presented by 5th February 2018.
