    Description

    At DC Thomson we are a business with a purpose – to make a positive impact on the communities we serve.

    We are home to some of the world's best loved media brands, organised around local news and radio, companionship, kids, advocacy, energy, puzzles and hobbies.

    The Courier, The Press & Journal, The Sunday Post, Beano, Stylist, Puzzler, The People's Friend, My Weekly, bunkered, Energy Voice, Findmypast and Brightsolid are just some of the brands you might know us for.

    Deeply rooted in our communities, we are investing in data, technology and talent to unlock a new level of understanding about what really matters to our customers. This is how we are shaping the future of media.

    We're changing the way we work to create a flexible, collaborative, learning-led culture that draws on expertise from across the organisation to create award-winning content and cultural moments that make audiences want to be part of our communities.

    Our HQ is in Dundee and we have bases around the UK employing over 1,200 extraordinarily creative colleagues working in a mix of office/home/hybrid. They're passionate about being part of the story of so many well-loved brands and they're crucial to our ambitions for the company.

    This is a 1-year contract to devise and implement font licence compliance and best practise across DC Thomson print, digital and apps following a recent review of font licensing and usage across the DC Thomson group. The successful candidate, working with other specialists within the group, will be responsible for:

    • Completing the investigations into font usage around the group
    • Systematically consolidating existing information and recordkeeping on fonts across the Group
    • Implementing, training and onboarding users of the font management system, working with account managers of the vendor solution to maximise value to DC Thomson from that relationship
    • With other specialists, supporting the creation and/or design of internal font usage, purchasing and accounting policies within the group and leading the training of these policies
    • Supporting the brand team in providing appropriate internal challenge, governance and cost consciousness around font usage within the Group

    Some previous experience of font licensing would be desirable but not necessary.

    Reports to the DC Thomson Director of Brand Marketing

    Working closely with colleagues from: Product & Tech, Legal, HR, Editorial design, Production, Procurement

    Potentially a part-time 3+ day a week role

    Location: Hybrid Working. Will need to travel to DC Thomson offices in Dundee and Central London

    The Person:

    • An experienced project manager with the gravitas, curiosity and EQ to deliver sustainable behaviours and solutions for a fast-paced matrixed organisation.
    • A results driven project manager – the company has ambitious goals to reduce the number of fonts used and put thorough processes and controls in place.
    • A careful planner – the complex and concurrent tasks involved will need to be planned and sequenced.
    • A multi-tasker – who can manage several workstreams at once, working with diverse teams from design, brand management, editorial, legal, HR, product & tech, procurement etc.
    • Experienced working with product and tech teams – able to understand, converse with, gain respect and challenge system requirements around DC Thomson
    • Ideally experience in design systems and in a perfect world, publishing design
    • Someone who relishes paying attention to detail and setting up comprehensive record-keeping, whilst keeping the project moving at pace.
    • A team-player that people across the business will enjoy working with. Someone who will keep momentum and spirits up. Someone who will relish and cheerlead through inevitable unexpected challenges.

    This is a full-time position 12 Month Fixed Term Contract, working 35 hours per week. We offer a generous package including 34 days holiday, Health Cash Plan, excellent Pension, a competitive salary, and many more staff discounts and benefits.

    We are an equal opportunity employer and encourage applications from everyone and do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability or any other protected characteristics.
