Location : Hybrid (Not remote, must work 20 hours per week on-site in Spring, TX)

The Daily Grace Co. Mission

The Daily Grace Co. exists to equip disciples with biblically rich resources that bring the Word of God to the everyday moments of life. We are passionate about creating resources that are theologically sound, beautifully designed, and accessible to all who desire to know and love God's Word more deeply.

About the Role

The Daily Grace Co. is seeking an Assistant Acquisitions Editor to support the evaluation, development, and management of our book and Bible study acquisitions pipeline. This role plays a critical part in helping identify strong publishing opportunities, steward submissions through our review process, and ensure excellence and clarity at every stage of acquisition.

This position is ideal for someone early in their publishing career who demonstrates strong editorial judgment, theological discernment, and a desire to grow in acquisitions. The Acquisitions Editor Assistant will work closely with the Director of Acquisitions and cross-functional teams while gaining hands-on experience in proposal evaluation, market research, and early-stage development.

Ideal Candidate

You are detail-oriented, driven, and eager to learn the acquisitions process from the inside. You enjoy reading proposals, assessing ideas critically, and thinking about how theology, audience, and market fit together. You are organized, dependable, and comfortable managing multiple projects and author relationships.

You may not yet have extensive experience signing books or negotiating contracts, but you bring strong instincts, theological maturity, and a clear interest in Christian publishing and acquisitions.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in theology, publishing, English, or a related field required
  • 0-2 years of experience in publishing, editorial, ministry, or a related field
  • Theological understanding aligned with The Daily Grace Co.'s statement of faith
  • Strong written communication skills and editorial discernment
  • Enjoys building meaningful relationships with literary agents and authors
  • Ability to evaluate content for theological soundness, clarity, and audience relevance
  • Familiarity with the Christian publishing landscape is a plus
  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
  • Self-motivated and able to manage deadlines across multiple projects
  • Openness to learning publishing systems, workflows, and emerging tools (including AI-assisted research and evaluation tools)

Responsibilities

Proposal & Submission Review

  • Conduct initial and secondary reviews of incoming proposals and manuscripts
  • Complete proposal evaluation forms with thoughtful editorial, market, and theological feedback
  • Assist in determining which submissions advance through the acquisitions pipeline

    • Acquisitions Support

  • Support the acquisitions team members in preparing materials for editorial and strategic review
  • Assist with market research, comparable title analysis, and audience positioning
  • Help draft acquisition summaries and recommendations for leadership review
  • Assist with preparing and executing book publishing agreements

    • Author & Project Coordination

  • Meet with agents, authors, and other publishing industry professionals to network and solicit proposals
  • Track submissions, decisions, and project status within internal systems
  • Support early-stage development by suggesting and gathering feedback
  • Consistently communicate with current and potential authors
  • Prepare and send a monthly newsletter for current and potential authors

    • Process & Team Collaboration

  • Maintain organized records of proposals, contracts, and acquisition decisions
  • Contribute to improving acquisitions workflows and documentation
  • Participate in acquisitions, editorial, and cross-departmental meetings as needed
  • Other duties as assigned

    • Growth Opportunity

    This role offers exposure to the full acquisitions lifecycle and is designed to grow with the needs of the department. As responsibilities expand, this position may evolve to include increased editorial input and acquisition ownership, depending on performance and organizational needs.

    Benefits

    This is a full-time (40-50 hours per week) position and includes :

  • Full insurance package including health, dental, vision, basic life, and disability
  • Three weeks of Paid Time Off (PTO / Vacation)
  • Thirteen paid holidays
  • Paid time off to volunteer with your favorite organization
  • Annual raises and profit sharing based on company profitability and personal performance
  • Annual employee celebration PTO for birthday and anniversary milestones
  • 401(k) retirement eligibility
  • Free company product plus employee discounts
