Nicola Goode

Global Sales Director, London

I joined Post Wave in September 2024 following 7 years as Children’s Group Sales Director at Hachette Children’s Group. Prior to this, I spent 15 years at DK/Penguin Random House where I had multiple roles including Head of Trade Sales (DK), Publishing Operations Manager (Ladybird/BBC/Warne) and Inventory Manager. I began my career working in magazines for IPC Media, and also spent 18 months at an internet start up.

A bookshop that I love: Mr B’s Emporium, Bath, and Barter Books, Alnwick.

A book that I love: The Bad Seed by Jory John, illustrated by Pete Oswald.

A fun fact about me: I was a child model for M&S from age 4.
