Universal Media Co is growing and we are looking to hire a Managing Editor to help us manage a range of new products. Most of these products are licensed from other parties, but some are commissioned from our stable of writers. This role is the interface between the writer or supplier and our production department, collaborating with all parties to bring each project to life. Each project has unique needs – some go straight to design, while others need heavy editing, or image selection. Once each project has gone to print you will get involved in the commercial aspects of publishing by producing press releases, pitch decks and in some cases collaborating with buyers. If you enjoy a creative, fast-paced environment, and love nurturing new products through a production process, this role offers plenty of scope to spread your wings. This role suits someone with an Editorial background who wants to learn the commercial aspects of publishing and collaborate with customers.
