We’re looking for an intern who wants to learn about ebooks, sales, and the business side of digital publishing. The internship is part-time and entails working closely with the Sales Manager to build sales reports, liaise with Amazon, Google Books, and independent bookstores, update databases, prepare administrative tasks, and work with the CEOs on analyzing sales and growth.

Ideally you’re someone who is both proficient in excel and html; who follows the publishing industry closely and is interested in the digital revolution happening with ebooks and ecommerce.

OR Books is an innovative publisher that sells direct to the customer and is at the forefront of online business, so you’d have the chance to see how it’s structured and what makes it work. You’d be working either remotely or in the office 2 to 3 days a week on both short and long-term projects and you’d also be a part of our meetings and events, getting a glimpse of every area of the company as part of the experience.

The internship is paid and is available for school credit. To apply, please send your resume as well as a cover letter that includes all three of these: 1) a description of your skills and interests and why they’d be right for OR Books, 2) a brief explanation of your experience with HTML, excel, and Wordpress, 3) your availability.

Please include any social media profiles you think are relevant, as well as your resume. Publishing/sales experience is not required but is a huge plus. Send all materials to orintern@gmail.com with the subject line “Sales Intern.” Applications due FEB 6. We look forward to hearing from you!
