[ES_JOBS_NET] Biogeochemistry editor position at Nature Geoscience

[Alicia Newton]

*Job Title:* Associate or Senior Editor, Nature Geoscience
*Location:* London or Berlin

Do you love science but feel that a career as a scientist isn’t enough to
sate your desire to learn more about the natural world? Do you enjoy
reading papers outside your chosen area of research? If your answer is
‘yes’ to these questions, you could be the person we are looking for to
join the editorial team of Nature Geoscience.

We seek an associate or senior editor to represent the biogeochemistry
research community at the prestigious journal Nature Geoscience (
http://www.nature.com/ngeo). The editor will promote the journal’s coverage
of the various fields within this broad discipline in the primary research,
reviews and opinion sections of the journal.

The successful candidate will ideally have a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in
a discipline that falls broadly within the field of biogeochemistry.
However, strong candidates from all areas of the geosciences will be
considered. Postdoctoral experience and broad training will be an advantage.

Key elements of the job include the selection of manuscripts for
publication, as well as commissioning, editing and writing for the journal.
Close contact with related research communities, through conferences and
laboratory visits, will be an essential component of the work.

The role is demanding and intellectually stimulating, and it calls for a
keen interest in the practice and communication of science. The successful
candidate will be highly motivated and outgoing, and must possess excellent
interpersonal skills. The salary and benefits are competitive, reflecting
the critical importance and responsibilities of the role.

The position will ideally be based in our London or Berlin office, but
exceptions can be considered for strong candidates.

*To apply applicants should submit:*
A CV (including a brief account of their research and other relevant
experience)
A research highlight in Nature style (about 150 words) on a recent Nature
Geoscience paper
A brief cover letter explaining their interest in the post and their salary
expectations.

*Closing Date: 11th July 2017*
