HarperCollins Children’s Books UK is looking to build on the success of its bestselling authors, such as Derek Landy and David Walliams, with the help of new divisional sales director Brigid Nelson.
Nelson was most recently a children’s product director for 10 years at Penguin with responsibility for the Puffin, Ladybird, Sunbird, BBC Children’s and Frederick Warne imprints.
Reporting to group sales director Oliver Wright, Nelson will take up her post in the New Year.
