Bio
Annie Knight
Although Jules didn't work for me directly, we've worked very closely together over the last year on the Wiley Business & Capstone program. It's been an absolute pleasure to work with Jules - she's built great relationships with all of my authors, manages orders as soon as they come through, guides the customer services teams, helping them out with any problematic orders, and goes above and beyond in every aspect of her role. She will be greatly missed by myself and many others in the team - as well as lots of our authors who have worked with her. I've no doubt that she will excel in her next role and exceed all expectations, just as she has done at Wiley.

It was a pleasure to work alongside Jules for the 1.5 years she was at Oomph. She is an efficient account manager with excellent attention to detail. She managed many large orders simultaneously and always ensured deadlines were met and customers were happy.
