The College Department of W.W. Norton & Company--the largest and oldest independent and employee-owned publisher - produces textbooks and courseware for undergraduate studies in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. Our success rests on developing content of unmatched quality to support course goals for all educational environments. We support equity-minded teaching that improves outcomes for members of every learning community. Reflecting cutting-edge pedagogy, flexible learning pathways, and best practices in accessibility, our carefully integrated materials work to help all students succeed.

Camaraderie. Norton Representatives love driving sales success, but they also value exchanging ideas and discussing favorite books, music, travel destinations, etc. They come from diverse backgrounds, have wide-ranging interests, and embrace continuous learning.
Career development. Norton values promotion from within the organization, and professional advancement is priority. Our managers work to help foster each employee’s development around their identified strengths and professional goals.
Mentorship. In addition to training and guidance by a dedicated Sales Manager, our Sales Representatives receive support and collegiality from our mentorship program that pairs new employees with colleagues who are already experienced in their role.
