Sales Director, Ebury

Could you help shape the future of the UK’s leader in non-fiction publishing?
 

Ebury Publishing is one of Penguin Random House’s most eclectic and entrepreneurial publishing houses. As a multi-specialist publisher, they focus on books that can change lives, books that can inspire and motivate, and books that simply entertain. It’s a publishing business that prides itself on its creativity, its commercial acumen and the fact that it’s full of great people to work with.
 

We’re are looking to hire a Sales Director with experience and a passion for non-fiction who will play a crucial role in the Leadership team in Ebury both from a people management and strategic standpoint. You will work with an already thriving sales team as they navigate the ever evolving publishing landscape – maximising sales through online platforms and the crucial high street partnerships.  With full ownership of the Ebury’s UK sales budget, this is a role for someone to really make an impact and help shape the business as it continues to grow. 
 

In this role, communication will be key:  you need to be a superior negotiator, relationship builder (both internally and externally) as well as being able to inspire and motivate.
 

So, if you have a strong background in sales, innovation within publishing, a love of non-fiction and experience leading a passionate sales team, then we’d love to hear from you.
