You will play a vital role in the team that brings Pan Macmillan’s incredible list (including beloved children’s classics and global adult bestsellers) to a wide range of non-traditional retailers. The UK Special Sales team manage the distribution of Pan Macmillan’s titles to non-traditional retailers and wholesalers.

Some of the accounts looked after by this team include Aldi, The Works, Book Trust, Costco, TK Maxx, discount wholesale as well as subscription boxes. As the Special Sales Assistant, you will provide the operational coordination necessary for the department to function effectively. You will be responsible for the administrative systems that allow the team to meet sales targets and maintain retail partnerships. This role is collaborative and involves working with several internal teams such as our distribution centre, Editorial, Production, Royalties and Operations to ensure the smooth delivery of sales projects.
