We promote an environment of continuous improvement, and you will be process oriented and able to show examples of where you have positively influenced and changed business or operational processes for the better. You will be adaptable and open to change, motivated by working in an environment where systems, processes and publication models continue to evolve. You actively seek to understand new tools, workflows and ways of working, and enjoy building your knowledge to improve accuracy, efficiency and outcomes. You will have demonstrable data analysis and reporting skills, a proactive mindset, and an interest in continuous improvement.

You will coordinate and execute global publication plans, ensuring products are published on time, available in the right formats, and supported by high-quality, reliable data throughout their lifecycle. We are Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world-leading academic publisher and assessment organisation and a proud part of the University of Cambridge. About the role As the Academic business continues to transition towards more standardised ways of working and increased automation through new third-party systems, this role is vital to ensuring product data is ready for migration and that lifecycle management remains robust throughout periods of change without impacting publication or availability. The role has a strong focus on data quality and process improvement, and you will need to balance business-as-usual delivery with involvement in transformation activity, supporting data cleansing, issue resolution and continuous improvement without impacting customers or publication schedules. As Operations Controller for Product Data and Publication, you will be responsible for: Managing the timely publication of Academic print and digital products, including suitability for supply and ensuring global availability of formats to support Academic business strategies, including digital first and zero inventory. Ensuring the quality of Academic product data supplied to vendors and customers is accurate and standardised and contribute to maintaining the accuracy of data through regular analysis, problem solving discrepancies and implementing solutions to fix data errors quickly. Proactively seek out data errors and discrepancies which prevent publication or limit availability, identifying the root causes and propose and implement solutions to resolve issues. Cleansing historic data records for digital products to support future readiness of publication, licensing or distribution opportunities. Additional responsibilities and accountabilities include: Propose, define and implement new workflows for non-print and non-standard publication processes and regularly review existing processes for continual improvements.

About You This is an ideal role for someone with experience of publishing operations in an Academic environment, and who enjoys working across complex systems and datasets, collaborating widely, solving problems proactively and using data to inform decisions. You will act as a trusted point of contact on publication and availability matters, helping to resolve complex data and supply issues while continuously improving visibility, reporting and processes. You will also be comfortable explaining complex information to a range of stakeholders and confident working in a fast-evolving digital supply chain environment. We promote an environment of continuous improvement, and you will be process oriented and able to show examples of where you have positively influenced and changed business or operational processes for the better. You will be adaptable and open to change, motivated by working in an environment where systems, processes and publication models continue to evolve. You actively seek to understand new tools, workflows and ways of working, and enjoy building your knowledge to improve accuracy, efficiency and outcomes. You will have demonstrable data analysis and reporting skills, a proactive mindset, and an interest in continuous improvement. If you are motivated by accuracy, collaboration, and the opportunity to help shape the future of academic publishing through strong operational delivery and data-led improvement, this role offers a chance to make a real and visible impact. If you meet the above minimum requirements, we encourage you to apply. Your application will be even stronger if you can also demonstrate the following desirable criteria: Experience of publishing in an operational context, particularly Academic book publishing.
