We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated Implementation Manager across our Journal Editorial Offices (JEO) to join our global Science Journal Operations team. 

You are utilizing a very ‘hands on’ approach and drive in a fast paced and rapidly changing environment leveraging strong interpersonal skills. You are eager to work with colleagues and researchers on our submission, peer-review and open access processes and contribute to a framework of continuous improvement. You have a data-driven and customer centric mindset and consider yourself a problem solver and facilitator.

This is a great opportunity for a dedicated individual to be part of a strategically relevant team and contribute to the development of best-in-class and scalable workflows in a rapidly evolving publishing landscape. 

The Implementation Manager for the Journal Editorial Office (JEO) will oversee the effective management, quality assurance, and strategic direction of JEO services. This includes defining and managing service level agreements (SLAs), collaborating with external service providers, and implementing policies related to editorial office activities. The role combines operational oversight, strategic planning, and policy implementation to ensure the highest standards in editorial office services.

Alongside the existing Implementation Manager, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth transition and execution of editorial office initiatives, processes, and projects. This position requires a combination of project management, stakeholder coordination, and operational expertise to support the publishing workflows and strategic goals of the organization.

You will collaborate with cross-functional teams, including editorial staff, production, technology, and external partners, to deliver high-quality results that align with the company’s mission and objectives.
