This is an exciting opportunity for someone with at least two years’ experience in publishing, who is looking to take the next step in their career.

AM Heath is a tight-knit and supportive company. Our agency list covers a broad range of fiction, non-fiction, children’s books & YA, and ranges from the most iconic authors of the 20th century, to the top ranks of literary and commercial success today.
