Publicist

Salary: £35,000 per annum, depending on experience, plus contributions to a pension scheme. This salary includes a London weighting.
Full time
Location: Candidates must be based in London. Work from home, plus meetings, events and travel.
Closing date: end of Sunday 6 September 2026
We are looking for a dynamic publicist to work across all our books, delivering innovative publicity campaigns that maximise the long-term reputations, profiles and sales of our authors. You’ll have a curiosity about the evolving media landscape and a keenness to work collaboratively in the team and deliver exceptional author care.

Working from home with regular travel for meetings and events, you will plan and execute press and publicity campaigns in the UK and Ireland for 15-20 titles per year, delivering exceptional author care and expanding the reach of our list.

A note on travel: Regular travel with authors and to other events (e.g. sales conferences) will be necessary. And Other Stories events may take place in the evenings or on weekends. All travel outside London is fully paid by the company. If you are interested in the position but are concerned about the impact of travel or evening events on your caring responsibilities, disability, long-term health condition, religious practices, commitment to sobriety, or any other personal factor, we strongly encourage you to apply anyway and discuss options with us. We actively tailor roles to ensure work is sustainable for everyone. If you are considering applying but have specific accessibility questions, we encourage you to be in touch.

Benefits & Perks

In addition to regular annual leave allowance (38 days for full time roles, including bank holidays), employees also receive extra annual leave after three and after five years’ service.
To encourage climate-friendly lifestyle choices, any employee who has not travelled by air for personal holidays in one calendar year is entitled to three extra ‘slow travel’ days the next year.
