- 5+ years in scholarly publishing with hands-on peer review experience.
- Working knowledge of peer review models (single-blind, double-blind, open), open access workflows, and emerging trends in scholarly communication.
- Proficiency with manuscript systems and workflow tools (Editorial Manager strongly preferred; comfort with automation/AI-assisted tools for efficiency).
- Exceptional written communication and editorial judgment; able to synthesize complex feedback into clear, actionable decisions.
- Strong organization and project management skills; thrives in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
- A competitive compensation package.
