Editor-at-Large, Children’s Fiction Books, London, FTC

A rare and exciting opportunity has come up with the dynamic and growing Children’s division of a major Trade Book Publishing house, who have asked us to find an Editor-at-Large to join them on a 6 month contract starting as soon as possible.

Your role as Editor-at-Large will be to acquire Children’s Fiction books across various age ranges and to manage current projects.

We’re looking for an experienced editorial candidate with a successful track record of acquiring Children’s Fiction books and of working with high-profile authors.

A very competitive salary (which will depend on your experience) is on offer to the successful candidate, plus excellent Group benefits.
