Remote Customer Support Associate, Book Fairs - Seasonal Full Time

Literati is a modern children’s book company focused on building reading skills so kids can grow to be their best selves. We make it easy to find books kids love through school book fairs and book clubs using a unique mix of expert curation and data science. We’re on a mission to help parents ignite a love of learning and a love of life.

As a Seasonal Full-Time Support Associate, you’ll help school communities run joyful book fairs filled with child-like wonder—while working a predictable schedule that allows you to step away at the end of the day to focus on what matters most outside of work.

This is a seasonal, time-bound role designed to support Book Fair coordinators during our busiest seasons. You’ll provide exceptional customer service via phone and email, help facilitate book orders for schools, and coordinate with other team members to ensure each school is fully taken care of.

Seasonal Full-Time Support Associates will focus on live queue coverage and standard, documented workflows. This role does not oversee long-term project ownership, escalation management, or cross-functional program leadership, which remain the responsibility of permanent Full-Time employees.

To be equitable to all Literatians, we have set compensation and a non-negotiation policy—we don't think a person’s pay should be determined by how comfortably they negotiate. The hourly rate for this role is $17.50 per hour. As a seasonal employee, this position is not eligible for standard employee benefits, except those required by applicable federal, state, and local law.
