Freelance Publishing Professionals
Freelance Publishing Professionals is a dynamic online directory and community-based network that brings together publishers and freelancers in the English Language Teaching and Education publishing sectors. The directory showcases freelancers involved in a wide range of roles within Education and ELT publishing and is a one-stop-shop for resourcing publishing projects within the sectors.
- Freelancers upload and manage a detailed profile with photo, and advertise their own availability direct to potential clients.
- Publishers, packagers and other organisations browse the directory, using powerful and effective search tools, then make direct contact with the selected freelancers.
- Publishers and other organisations advertise their freelance vacancies by posting Job Spots that freelancers can apply for.
- The community-based network brings together freelancers and publishers via CPD live events, social online events and the annual Awayday Conference.
Founded in 2018, Freelance Publishing Professionals was originally the result of collaboration between two ELT-focused organisations ELT Freelancers' Community and ELT Teacher 2 Writer. Today, embracing Education publishing across the whole spectrum, the directory includes freelancers and publishers from ELT, UK curriculum publishing and International schools.

Freelance Publishing Professionals is run by director Helen Holwill
Helen has worked in educational publishing in a variety of roles for more than 25 years. She has previously worked in house for Oxford University Press, Macmillan Education and Learndirect English, and is a joint founder of the annual Freelancers’ Awayday.
