Humanoids Wants A Comic Book Sales And Marketing Director In Los Angeles For The Third Year Running

Published Tue, 07 Nov 2017 10:30:04 -0600

This looks like the job that Tim Pilcher was recently doing for comic book publisher Humanoids, from sunny Brighton on the south coast of England. Could it be the reason he is no longer doing the job be that the job is now to be done from Los Angeles?

Could be. Here's the listing for anyone who wants to sell European comic books to Americans…

Sales and Marketing Director

The legendary graphic novel publishing house Humanoids is seeking a multitasking individual to serve as a Sales and Marketing Director, and who will be responsible for managing print and digital distribution, sales, retailer relations, and marketing for Humanoids' publications throughout English language territories. This is an exempt LA-based position that requires at least a Bachelor's Degree, excellent communication skills, and sales and marketing experience within the comics industry. Bilingual in French a plus. Salary is dependent upon experience.

Although, it seems that's what they were doing in September 2016, looking for:

"…a multitasking individual to serve as the Director of Sales and Marketing under the general direction from the Chief Operations Officer (COO), and who will be responsible for managing distribution, sales, and marketing for Humanoids' publications throughout North America and the UK.

Humanoids is based in Los Angeles, California and therefore should be within reasonable distance. Send resumes to: jobs@humanoids.com"

And in October 2015:

The legendary graphic novel publishing house and production company Humanoids is seeking a multitasking individual to serve as the Director of Sales and Marketing under the general direction from the Chief Operations Officer (COO), and who will be responsible for managing sales, marketing, public relations, distribution and customer support for Humanoids' English language publications throughout North America.
