Production Assistant (Book Publishing)

Description

For more than 60 years, Tyndale has helped readers discover the life-giving truths of God's Word. Today we're one of the largest independently owned Christian publishers in the world. Though our business has grown, our mission remains the same: to open God's Word to as many as possible in language they can relate to and understand.

At Tyndale, our production team is made up of people who love the details — the feel of a cover, the weight of the pages, even the smell of a freshly printed book. They're stewards as much as they are buyers, working to make sure every dollar invested in a title is well spent and every book represents Tyndale well on the shelf. It's a collaborative, detail-driven group that takes real pride in doing this work with excellence.

As a Production Assistant, you'll play a key role in keeping Tyndale's books on schedule and on budget. You'll coordinate production timelines across departments, track the details that keep projects accurate, and serve as a clear communicator with everyone involved in bringing a book to life. This role is a great fit for someone who thrives on details, adapts easily when priorities shift, and wants a front-row seat to how a book actually gets made.

What You'll Do

• Coordinate production schedules across multiple departments to keep each title on track for its release.
• Serve as a communication liaison between the production team and partners throughout the company, keeping projects aligned.
• Track and manage product details with accuracy, helping ensure every book reflects Tyndale's standard of quality.
• Adapt to shifting priorities throughout the day and week, staying focused while managing multiple details under pressure.
• Support responsible stewardship of Tyndale's production budget by helping ensure resources are well spent on every project.

Skills and Qualifications Needed

• Effective time management and organizational skills, with the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
• Self-motivated approach to handling details and working under pressure.
• Knowledge of printing, binding, or publishing schedules preferred.
• Comfort with computers and basic math/number-based tasks.
• A college degree or equivalent work experience; recent graduates are welcome to apply!
• Personal alignment with and adherence to the Bible as God's Word, and agreement with our Statement of Faith
