Job Description

We are a rapidly growing calendar publishing company producing over 1,000 unique calendar titles per year, each rich in large, high-resolution imagery. Our fully distributed team of 13 (designers, managers, support) coordinates production remotely primarily through Google Drive and Google Sheets, but our workflows are outgrowing these tools as our image archive and title count expand.

We are looking for an expert consultant, ideally with experience in large-scale magazine, catalog, or print media workflows and digital asset management , to audit our current end-to-end process and recommend industry-standard (or custom) solutions to streamline:

• Cost and inventory management integrations if possible

Key areas of expertise:

• Proven track record with DAM platforms (e.g., Adobe Experience Manager, Bynder, Canto, etc.) in publishing, media, or printing
• Familiarity with publishing workflow/project management tools (Wrike, Monday, WoodWing, etc.)
• Experience integrating DAMs/workflow with design software (Adobe Suite, InDesign)
• Print production management systems knowledge
• Strong communication skills; ability to translate complex workflow concepts for a non-technical, creative team

Project Scope:

• Audit and map current workflows and pain points
• Recommend 2-3 solutions (SaaS, on-premises, or custom), considering cost, learning curve, and future scalability
• Advise on best practices for remote publishing teams
• Optionally, assist with implementation, onboarding, and integration
