Job Description

**NOTE: This listing is for a Remote Independent Contract Audiobook Narrator. This is not a staff position. **

Talking Book Publishers Inc. is a small nonprofit serving the Blind and Print disabled community. We have been making accessible audiobooks for over 60 years. We are currently looking for experienced audiobook narrator contractors who want to join our contractor roster to help us with our work.

We are looking for experienced narrators who have room in their project schedules to narrate for 6-30 hours per week. This contract is great for filling in the gaps of your other projects.

This contract is paid at $75.00pfh (Per Finished Hour rate, prorated to the minute). Depending on your skill, and accuracy your earning potential is in your hands.

You will be responsible on a per-project basis for the recording and narration of books and magazine articles of various lengths and complexity as projects become available. We are expecting clean raw audio, free from errors. We expect you to meet any agreed-upon deadlines for the narration and deadlines for returning any corrections that are required. We will need you to guarantee your work for 2 years. (**We are only looking for narration; these projects will not require you to perform any editing or mastering of the audio, as our technicians will handle that in-house.)

If you are an experienced contract audiobook narrator who is looking for more projects, please send us the following for consideration:

  • Complete the screener questions, so I can get to know you and your experience a bit.
  • Send a resume and cover letter
  • Send one, 3-5 min length sample selection of you reading a FICTION audiobook, recorded in your studio.
  • Send one, 3-5 min length sample selection of you reading a NON-FICTION audiobook, recorded in your studio.

You can attach the samples in the screener questions area. (if you have problems with this, let me know in the screener, and I will reach out with another method of submission) Also, please send samples of audiobooks, not demo reels, just a sample of fiction and nonfiction of something you have read before will be great.

If you do not have audiobook narration experience, this position is not for you at this time. We are not looking to train audiobook narrators at this time, we are hoping to find seasoned, experienced narrators to join our roster.

We look forward to speaking with you soon

*Please do not contact or stop by our studio directly, the onsite staff are not able to help with this hiring process, and it may disqualify you from consideration. Thank you for respecting our process.
