Legend Times Ltd Discover Creative Careers: How a Book Comes to Life

Join Legend Times Ltd for a three-day in-person work experience placement in the publishing industry and see how a book comes to life, from the first idea through to the finished product on the shelf. The experience is designed to give young people a real taste of working in a publishing workplace, with a focus on getting involved rather than simply observing.

You will explore a range of publishing roles and processes, including editorial, design, production, marketing and publicity, and sales. The placement shows how creative, business and communication skills all come together in a fast-moving industry, with opportunities to meet people working in publishing and learn about the different careers involved.

The programme is aimed at curious applicants who are keen to build skills and confidence. You do not need any previous publishing experience, and there are only six places available, so participants will have plenty of chances to work closely with the Legend Times team and take part in hands-on activities.
