As Propriometrics Press continues to grow and we gear up to launch a few new titles (keep up with our website and our Twitter and Instagram profiles for updates!), we are hoping to add a new publisher to our team—someone who can oversee projects, timelines, and big-picture stuff. See below for more information and our requirements!

Propriometrics Press is seeking a publisher for our dynamic and exciting non-fiction micropress. We want someone motivated, with keen marketing and business sense, excellent communication skills, and a lot of vision.

• Liaising with our foreign rights agent, distributor, and printer on all tasks
• Keeping big-picture schedules on track, including lead time for marketing and promotions
• Managing our editorial, production, and promotions staff
• Creating and leading marketing initiatives for front and backlist
• Helping to plan and organize author events and book tours
• Bringing new book ideas to the table

You have:

• At least 5 years’ experience in book publishing, including at least 1 year in a senior management position, as a publisher preferred
• A thorough and proven skill with book marketing and promotions
• Contacts at major publications for review
• A passion for making thought-provoking books that aim to shift our culture into a more sustainable, human-movement-based future
• An understanding of the Propriometrics backlist and mandate, and a keen eye for next steps
