Serena Arthur – Editorial Assistant at Headline

I studied English Literature at Mansfield College, an Oxford college which strives to help state school students like myself recognise that they have the potential to gain access to Oxbridge. During university I was the Deputy Editor and co-creator of Onyx Magazine, which platforms the work and voices of students of African and Caribbean descent. I graduated in July 2019 and started as a Publishing Trainee at Hachette UK that September, after some short work experience at Walker Books and Usborne Books. I now have a permanent role as an Editorial Assistant within Headline, Hachette.
