Job Description

Role overview

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.

The Digital Sales and Production team is a small, tight-knit group that brings Tyndale's eBooks and audiobooks to readers and listeners online. This team spans both sales and production, fostering a collaborative environment where individuals with diverse strengths and perspectives work together to achieve shared goals. The audiobook program is still developing, offering a unique opportunity to contribute to its growth and shape its operational processes.

What you'll do

  • Own the audio production database: Take over and maintain the master tracking system for every audiobook in production (currently Asana, alongside Excel), keeping manuscript deadlines, narrator assignments, and release dates accurate so the whole team works from one reliable source of truth.
  • Connect the teams: Serve as the day-to-day link between our team and Tyndale's publishing and product groups, gathering the details, deadlines, and files that keep audio and eBook projects on schedule — primarily by email, with regular Zoom and in-person touchpoints.
  • Keep recordings on schedule: Procure manuscript PDFs and any supplemental files needed for recording sessions, and build the seasonal audio spreadsheet ahead of each new product presentation so nothing gets confirmed at the last minute.
  • Support eBook pricing and promotions: Set up promotions in our internal publishing system, verify promotional pricing at digital retailers, and track repricing data and pricing projects in Excel so every title reaches readers at the right price at the right moment.
  • Support the sales side of the business: Help the team plan and coordinate frontlist priorities, backlist promotions, and seasonal and channel opportunities; participate in select sales presentations to digital accounts; and pitch in on special projects across the team as they come up.
  • Strengthen how we work: Keep title metadata clean, document processes as they take shape, and flag bottlenecks you spot — helping a newer, fast-changing part of the business get sharper over time.

Skills

and Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in business, communications, publishing, or a related field
  • Solid working knowledge of Excel — comfortable maintaining detailed spreadsheets and using functions like VLOOKUP, or eager to learn them quickly — plus proficiency across the Microsoft Office Suite
  • Experience with project management or CRM software (Asana, Monday.com, HubSpot, or similar) is a plus
  • Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities and meet deadlines
  • Clear, professional communicator who can adapt to different working and communication styles across teams
  • Flexible and comfortable learning as you go — this is a newer role in a newer part of the business, and priorities will evolve
  • Genuine interest in audiobooks, eBooks, or digital publishing is a plus
  • Personal alignment with and adherence to the Bible as God's Word, and agreement with our Statement of Faith
