Tif Loehnis, the founder of Janklow and Nesbit’s UK office, is joining Canongate in September as a senior editor.
Canongate publishing director Nick Davies said: "She has great taste in books, a genuine and straightforward connection with her writers, and a restless curiosity about the future of the industry.
"I have no doubt Tif will build an eclectic and highly successful list for us, but also challenge and enrich the way we publish books at Canongate."
As an agent, Loehnis has represented authors including Tilly Bagshawe, Jasper Fforde and Henry Porter, and brands including Mumsnet.
She has been on a break since leaving Janklow and Nesbit in 2010.
