Wandsworth, United Kingdom The Random House Group Limited Full time

We are looking to appoint a Publishing Operations Executive (BBC), Audio on a 12-month FTC basis to cover an internal secondment.

**About Audio**

At Penguin Random House Audio, the UK’s leading audiobook publisher, we are dedicated to making the very best audiobooks. Working with exceptional acting talent, producers, and studios, we publish award-winning and bestselling audiobooks such as Richard Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club series, Bernadine Evaristo’s Booker-winning Girl, Woman, Other, Stephen Fry’s Troy and Dr Julie Smith’s Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?

We’re also very proud to publish the BBC Audio list where we commercialise curated collections of BBC Radio’s spoken word content. BBC Audio publishes a wide range of entertainment, with comedy series including Just a Minute and I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue; sci-fi and fantasy programmes such as Doctor Who and The Lord of the Rings, and radio drama based on the works of writers including Agatha Christie, Patricia Highsmith, Alan Bennett and Arthur Conan Doyle.

**The opportunity**

This is an exciting time to join a fast-paced team that is setting a precedent for innovative and ground-breaking work, and as BBC Publishing Operations Executive, you’ll play a key role in bringing our audio publishing to new heights.

You will work closely with our BBC Audio Editorial team and be involved in the whole publishing process - from acquisition to publication and beyond. You’ll maintain the publishing schedule and ensure that all audiobooks are produced to the highest quality and oversee their distribution to retailers, including Google, Audible and Apple.

**Your responsibilities will include**:

- Organising title set up
- Managing production schedules
- Coordinating editing and mastering of audiobooks
- Quality control and post-production

- You’ll have great attention to detail, and excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- You’ll be highly organised and efficient
- You’ll have excellent prioritisation skills, being able to manage multiple work streams concurrently

**In your cover letter please include a little about who you are, what skills or experience you can bring to the role and why you want to join the Penguin Audio team.**

**What you can expect from us**:
Hybrid working: while our offices are places to connect, collaborate and celebrate with colleagues, we recognise that flexibility about where you work is just as important for doing your best work and for your wellbeing. For this role, there are meetings and activities that you will need to attend in person at our offices in Nine Elms at a minimum of once per week.

**Our employees are the heart of our business. We have a range of benefits to reflect our commitment to our employees, some of which are**:
