Job Description

Epic is seeking an experienced Editor with a passion for children’s books across comics and graphic novels, picture books, chapter books, and nonfiction. This role is ideal for a publishing professional with a strong commercial sensibility, a proven acquisitions track record, and deep relationships with authors and agents. In this role, you will oversee a diverse list of titles and manage the editorial process end-to-end, from acquisition through publication. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and play a key role in identifying trends and discovering new creative voices—both through traditional publishing channels and emerging, non-traditional pathways.

Job Responsibility

  • Edit and manage 20–25 titles annually across multiple children’s book formats for ages 3–12
  • Oversee all stages of the editorial process from acquisition through publication, including: Reviewing manuscript passes and addressing copyediting queries
  • Consulting with Design throughout development
  • Negotiating with authors and agents through signed contracts
  • Providing ongoing author and agent support
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Executive, Design, Production, Publicity, Marketing, and Finance teams
  • Partner with Finance to create and manage title-by-title P&Ls
  • Research market trends and identify new content opportunities

Requirements

  • 5–7+ years of experience editing children’s literature
  • 3–5+ years of acquisition experience
  • Strong editorial vision and deep understanding of the children’s publishing market
  • Ability to negotiate favorable contract terms
  • Established relationships with authors and literary agents
  • Excellent project management and organizational skills
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with a willingness to discover talent outside traditional agent pathways (e.g., social media, trade shows, comic book conventions)
  • Results-oriented and comfortable working both independently and collaboratively
