The posting

Are you an avid reader who wants to help shape the local publishing landscape? Epigram Books is one of Singapore's most ambitious and exciting independent publishers, and this role is your window into the publishing world of Singapore. We are looking for a strong communicator with an infectious enthusiasm for literature, who can see the bigger picture of ASEAN literature. We believe that stories are powerful, which makes the authors who write them just as important, and you will play a key part in bringing their work to more readers.

Marketing and Publicity Duties

Author Support and Events

  • Prize Coordination: Coordinate the extensive logistics and successful execution of the prestigious annual Epigram Books Fiction Prize event.
  • Author Management: Maintain excellent author relationships by managing inquiries, arranging appearances, coordinating book signing sessions, sales conferences to industry partners and supporting authors at book launches and all literary events.
  • Event Coordination: Plan, execute, and budget for all book launches and promotional events for new and backlist titles.
  • Event Hosting: Emcee book events with a short introduction of authors and help facilitate Q&A where required.

Campaign, Content, and Partnership Management

  • Campaign Execution: Plan, budget and execute marketing campaigns, with a focus on social media.
  • Partnerships: Identify and execute marketing partnerships and collaborations, including with brands and organisations outside the book industry, to reach a wider audience.
  • Collateral Production: Commission, manage, and/or oversee the production of all marketing materials, including video trailers, social media graphics and book information sheets.
  • Financial Administration: Budget for and account for all marketing expenses.

Media, Reviewers and Industry Relations

  • Media Outreach: Support media outreach where needed. This includes:

- Pitching stories and authors to media outlets to secure coverage.

- Maintaining relationships with journalists and media contacts.

  • Reviewer Relations: Build relationships with bookstagrammers, BookTokers, book bloggers, BookTubers and other book reviewers, and manage the distribution of review copies and marketing collateral to them.
  • Stakeholder Relations: Manage communications and represent the publisher with booksellers, festival managers, and other industry partners.

Skills & Experience

  • A love of books and reading. Prior marketing experience is a bonus, but not a requirement.
  • A background in English Literature, the arts, or a related field is preferred.
  • Deep knowledge of the literary world and its current trends.
  • Proficiency in MS Suite and Canva, with a good eye for design.
  • Tech and social media savvy with the ability to quickly master platforms like CapCut, Drip, Facebook, and Instagram.

Personality & Drive

  • Dedicated to the details of the work, with a sharp eye for the smallest errors, from a double space or a missing comma to an awkwardly cropped image.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, coupled with charisma and persuasive ability.
  • A natural communicator (a bit of a yapper, even), who keeps everyone helping out at events clearly in the loop and would rather over-communicate than leave anyone guessing.
  • Believes in the power of stories and wants to help more readers discover Singapore literature.

Commitment

  • Ability to start soon, ideally by 4 January 2027.
  • Flexibility to commit to evening and weekend book events, with off-in-lieu hours given for time spent at these events.

What you get from working with us

Compensation & Flexibility

  • Fair compensation for impactful, meaningful work.
  • 5-day in-office schedule with flexibility in start and end times for an 8-hour workday.
  • 2 days of honour sick leave per year (no medical certificate required).

Environment & Culture

  • A unique, open-concept work environment that blends office, library, and gallery.
  • Continuous professional development in literary community building, writing, and design.
  • Opportunities to travel within Southeast Asia to attend book fairs.
  • The joy of working with fellow book lovers, fascinating lunchtime conversations, and occasional in-house events featuring champagne, cheese and tiramisu.

  • Availability
  • Some examples of your writing or work, if possible

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
