Who we are and what we do

Bookouture is the UK’s most successful and innovative digital publisher of commercial fiction, and the publisher of many bestselling authors, including Freida McFadden, Kaylie Smith and Nicole Trope. We are part of Hachette UK and following fourteen years of market-leading growth have sold 100 million books to readers worldwide with a further 14 billion Kindle pages read of our titles. In late 2021 we began translating and publishing some of our bestselling fiction ourselves direct to readers in other languages, initially German, followed by Italian and French; in 2026 we have added Dutch and Spanish to that list. Over the last four-and-a-half years we have translated and published more than 530 books in languages other than English.

Please send a covering letter together with your CV telling us why you are applying for this role and what has attracted you to Bookouture in particular. Pease choose a bestselling commercial novel in the top 100 of the German UK Kindle chart, and in no more than 500 words explain why you think it is doing so well. Your answer might refer to author profile, title, cover, hook, copy, quotes, reviews and reader experience.
