Job Description
ARE YOU A CREATOR? DO YOU WANT TO SUPPORT FELLOW CREATORS?
Creating is different for each of us. Creating something could mean starting a business, inventing a product, painting a picture, or cooking a meal. At Lulu, we believe in creating something that inspires you. In 2002 Red Hat co-founder, Bob Young, had a book he wanted to publish. After a less than stellar experience with both traditional publishing and vanity presses, Bob was inspired to create something new. Something unique. Something that would offer easier and more affordable, creator-controlled publishing. Something we like to call Lulu.com.
Since then, our mission hasn’t changed. Lulu continues to evolve into the premier free-to-use online self-publishing and print-on-demand company. Anyone with a book to print can create on Lulu without paying a penny upfront. That’s it. Simple and affordable, we help everyone create what is important to them. In a time when all voices need to be heard, we are ensuring there are no barriers. Our employees are committed to making our communities and the world better, one book at a time! Does this inspire you? If so, please consider joining our team.
