[Alicia Newton]

*Job Title: *Associate or Senior Editor

*Department: *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 community of climate
and palaeoclimate researchers at the prestigious journal *Nature Geoscience*
(http://www.nature.com/ngeo <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
one or more disciplines that fall within this field, such as palaeoclimate,
oceanography or cryospheric science. However, strong candidates from other
areas of the geosciences will also 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.



*Applicants should send:*



   - 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
   - And a brief cover letter explaining their interest in the post and
   their salary expectations.



*Closing Date*: 10th June 2018
