Internships

We are accepting applications for internships. Applications will be ongoing.  Interns do what we do most of the time: finding new readers for these astounding books we’re lucky enough to publish. In other words: marketing, publicity and general support work. Interns take responsibility for specific projects and so help to shape our young company. They also help with duties including data base management, events, proofreading, and general office tasks.

The internship will be 2 days / week for 3 months. Supervision and support will be provided during the internship as well as further support and career advice after it finishes.

You will need to bring a laptop to work from our office in High Wycombe (30 min.s train ride from London) a minimum of one day per week. Travel costs and lunch covered. The internship is not for editorial work. Of course, if you have made a real effort and trained yourself in html or WordPress, or InDesign or Photoshop, you may be immediately useful on particular editorial projects. And we will share a lot with you about many aspects of our activity.

Previous interns have gone straight into jobs at Pan MacMillan and Hesperus, so we trust it is useful experience. We plan to create a paid Marketing / Sales position in the near future, so it is possible that an internship could lead to long-term work for And Other Stories.

If you are organised and good at working on your own projects, love our books and can see creative ways to promote them and our authors, please get in touch.

What a previous intern says about her experience with us:

My internship gave me a fantastic insight into the publishing world. What’s more it was thoroughly enjoyable to work at such a new and exciting publishing house. I would definitely recommend an internship with And Other Stories if you’re interested in a career in literary publishing – a very worthwhile experience!  - Sorcha McDonagh, Hesperus Press
