NetGalley is seeking a work-at-home reader concierge for its virtual team. You must be smart, friendly, passionate about books, Internet-savvy, and excited about supporting the site’s readers. Besides providing support, you will be facilitating the growth of the community, contributing content, and more.
You must be a digital devotee with a solid knowledge of current reading devices. Knowledge of the publishing industry and book marketing is a plus. Most of the site’s employees are based in and around New York City, so extra consideration will be given to applicants from this area.
You must be willing and able to start immediately. You must be a socially savvy people person with excellent customer support skills, a great attitude, and great written ability. Finally, you must be detail-oriented and comfortable working in a Web environment, yet able to perform independently.
Any publishing or book industry experience or education is a plus, as is experience with Constant Contact or similar applications. Basic technical skills and familiarity with the site is appreciated.
Compensation is commensurate with experience. This position includes health benefits, paid-time off, and a 401K for 40 hour-per-week employees. If interested in this telecommute opportunity, please forward your CV and a brief cover letter to: info@netgalley.com. Good luck!
