Graduate Editors

Job description

CGP seeks top graduates...

At CGP, we only ever take on exceptional people — after all, our best-selling books require great brains to make them. We’re now looking for graduates with humanities backgrounds to join our 70-strong editing team based in the wonderful Lake District.

You’ll write and edit brilliant content for pupils of all ages, from primary school to A-Level, and all in our distinctive house style. As long as you have a 2:1 degree, at least AAB at A-Level and a bit of work or volunteering experience under your belt, we’d love to hear from you.

Why join CGP?

  • We’re the UK’s No.1 educational publisher
  • There’s tonnes of opportunity to progress, right across the business
  • We tend to do things a bit differently — who else has their very own Quirk Ambassador?
  • Flexible working’s an option once you’re fully trained up
  • And all on the doorstep of our favourite National Park!

Sound interesting? Have a watch of our Great Place to Work video and make up your own mind.

What we are looking for

  • Plenty of flair and creativity
  • An eye for detail and a sense of pride in your work
  • An adaptable and positive attitude
  • A bit of work / volunteering experience under your belt (in any industry)
