  • Must have a passion for fiction and non-fiction, knowledge of the marketplace, and keen interest in learning about the business of publishing
  • Must enjoy working collaboratively, both in a small editorial team and across departments
  • Proven ability to set priorities under pressure and multi-task; must be highly organized, resilient, flexible, patient, and detail-oriented
  • Must be an efficient, self-motivated problem-solver with excellent oral and written communication skills
