Austin Macauley Publishers feels immense pride while sharing that Jade Robertson, our International Publishing Director, has been listed as one of the 30 most influential women in business within the UAE. She has established her entrepreneurial status and leadership in the publishing industry. In 2018 Jade was nominated for Publisher’s Weekly Star Watch award and after managing our Sharjah office in 2017, we were nominated for the Arabian Business Start-up Awards. Jade Robertson joined Austin Macauley in 2012 as an Assistant Editor and within just five years through her dedication in the management of the publishing process, business strategy and passion for our authors, she was appointed as the International Publishing Director. She surpassed all exceptions with hard work and persistent contributions towards the growth of the company. Through various business developments, exhibition strategies and marketing efforts Austin Macauley became open to a larger network of distribution channels and marketing opportunities. This obviously translated to the entrepreneurial skills of Robertson which helped the company become one of the Fastest Growing Publishers of 2018. Jade has played a significant role in establishing our international success for all of our authors and we’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate her on this achievement!
