Join to apply for the Administrative Assistant role at Tyndale House Publishers

For more than 60 years, Tyndale has helped readers discover the life‑giving truths of God’s Word. Today we are one of the largest independently owned Christian publishers in the world. Though our business has grown, our mission remains the same: to open God’s Word to as many as possible in language they can relate to and understand.

We are looking for a full‑time Administrative Assistant to support our Bibles, Spanish, and Kids publishing acquisitions teams, as well as the Bible Publisher and Sr. Operations Manager. In this role you will provide vital administrative and operational support, serving as a welcoming, responsive, and service‑mindful team member who helps the publishing teams work smoothly and make a lasting impact.

What You’ll Do
  • Create a welcoming and organized environment by acting as the primary receptionist and gatekeeper for the group area, proactively greeting guests, answering questions, and organizing refreshments for meetings.
  • Enhance team efficiency by scheduling meetings, managing shared calendars, maintaining up‑to‑date departmental employee records, coordinating timely routing of cards and special recognitions, distributing product copies and mail, and communicating industry and company news and information to the teams.
  • Manage and maintain departmental product libraries and conference room displays, ensuring resources are current, accessible, and ready for staff and visitors.
  • Support team’s product development, author relationships, and promotional efforts by placing and tracking internal product orders, answering follow‑up inquiries, and ensuring timely delivery for both internal and external recipients.
  • Facilitate team productivity by purchasing hospitality, shipping, and office supplies, as well as books and Bibles for product research.
  • Ensure publishing teams are equipped with accurate and accessible tools and resources by producing reports, organizing product and sales data, and assisting with online industry research.
  • Organize and execute mailings, special projects, and targeted outreach and promotional efforts.
  • Support clear and accurate communication to both internal and external stakeholders by assisting with the preparation of reports and presentation materials, including PowerPoint, printing, comb‑binding, and scanning projects.
  • Monitor and maintain department spaces—hallways, conference rooms, break room, shipping supply areas, and marketing storage—so that they are tidy, functional, and ready for daily use, supporting a productive work environment.
  • Strengthen collaboration with internal support teams by serving as the key liaison to Customer Service, Office Services, Information Services (I.S.), and the Facilities team, to ensure quick support and resolution of needs and requests.
Skills & Qualifications Needed
  • A college degree is preferred, but not required—willingness and ability to learn is just as important.
  • Some office or administrative experience is helpful, though we’re open to a variety of experiences and work backgrounds.
  • Experience in publishing is a plus, as is a familiarity with Spanish, but neither is essential.
  • Confidence using Microsoft Outlook, Word, and Excel is important; must also be comfortable learning and adapting to a variety of new software and internal programs.
  • Personal alignment with and adherence to the Bible as God’s Word, and agreement with our Statement of Faith.

This role will have flexible daily start/stop times, and the potential to work from home one day per week after a successful training and onboarding period.

We encourage you to include a cover letter explaining why you are interested in Tyndale and this role.
