The Hellenic Bookservice is where the largest collection of Classics and Modern Greek books in the world can be found. We have been in business since 1966 and we are the leading Classical Bookshop in the country and are used by many Classicists and Schools both in the UK and around the globe.

Our Classics department covers ancient history, culture, mythology, religion, as well as literature. We have books for learning Latin and Classical Greek and various DVDs, teaching aids, posters, CDs and plastic book covers. Our Modern Greek department covers all subjects, from travel, cookery and children’s books to literature, history, games and DVDs. We also stock books on Theology and New Testament (Koine) Greek. Furthermore we can obtain any book in print and source out of print titles. We also have a large selection of secondhand books for sale.


We are looking for someone to join our team (either full time or part time) and to help move the business forward into a new era of development. Someone with an interest in the Classical World and maybe some teaching experience. Experience of retail or bookselling would also be helpful. Experience of bookkeeping and using Sage would also be useful.

The role would be made up of a mixture of duties ranging from dealing with customers both in person and remotely and other the other administrative tasks that need to be carried out in a busy bookshop. Applicants should also be comfortable with using IT and it would be useful to have a knowledge of how to use social media platforms. We are keen that they are able to contribute also to the advancement our plans for further marketing of the business.
