<p class="MsoNormal">Nature Research is the world’s leader in publishing high-quality research from across the natural sciences. Its journals include Nature, the Nature Research journals, the Nature Reviews journals and <i>Nature Communications</i>.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i>Nature Communications</i> is the leading multidisciplinary Open Access journal, publishing high-quality scientific research. To help us to build on the success of this journal, we’re seeking a physical climate scientist with a strong
background in either climate modelling, climate dynamics, atmospheric science or hydroclimate who has a critical eye, a deep understanding of their subject and interests beyond, and who can think on their feet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Associate/Senior Editor role at <i>Nature Communications</i> is ideal for researchers who love science but feel that a career at the bench isn’t enough to sate your desire to learn more about the natural world and for those who enjoy
reading papers outside their chosen area of research.<o:p></o:p></p>

A thorough understanding of the fundamentals of the subject is essential.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">A passion for science and a thirst to learn more. You must be able to demonstrate the breadth of your interest in scientific research, both within and beyond your speciality and across the wider field of
Earth Science.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">Excellent communication and interpersonal skills and be fluent in English (written and spoken).<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">The ability to read and assess the novelty, context and implications of research submitted to the journal from different areas of this discipline.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2">Be eager to travel and meet scientists worldwide, learn more about them and their research, and help them learn more about us and what we are looking for in the papers we seek to publish.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
