Assistant Editor, Physical Review E
|
The editors of Physical Review E seek a dynamic and personable colleague to join our team at the American Physical Society Editorial Office in Ridge, New York, on Long Island near Brookhaven Lab and Stony Brook University. Our core responsibility is the selection of manuscripts for publication, in the context of the peer-review process. For this purpose, we aim to hire an Assistant Editor who has at least some postdoctoral experience in an area relevant to the journal, such as statistical or soft-matter physics, and is familiar with research publication. In addition, we would welcome an interest in contributing to ongoing efforts by the APS journals to reach out to nonspecialist and general readers. An excellent command of English is essential. No prior editorial experience is needed for this entry-level position -- we train all new editors to develop the necessary skills. With experience, an Assistant Editor assumes responsibility for deciding the fate of submitted manuscripts. We offer career stability, a competitive salary, and an outstanding benefits package to a qualified individual ready to start a nontraditional career in physics. For general information about the American Physical Society and its journals, see www.aps.org. To apply, please send your resume plus cover letter containing salary requirements and timetable of availability to: Joseph Ignacio, Director of Human Resources EOE M/F/D/V |
