Job Title:
Temporary Editorial Rights Administrative Assistant

Location:
Kings Cross, London (Hybrid Working)

Full time, Temporary Role (4 weeks)

Closing day: 27th November 2023


Editorial Rights is an internal department assisting publishing colleagues within Springer Nature with issues relating to the acquisition of rights to publish content.

This is a short-term temporary role to assist with Editorial Rights (ER) administrative tasks, including but not limited to the reading, reorganisation and uploading of policy documentation to a new online ticketing system/repository.


The primary purpose of the role is to facilitate timely reorganisation and uploading of policy materials to a new online repository (Freshdesk).

The online repository acts as a combined ticketing system for queries alongside a database of policy information for users to consult prior to asking for advice.

Editorial Rights has committed to migrate to the new system at the beginning of 2024 and prior to doing so must ensure its policy information is migrated into the system.


As part of this role, you will:

  • Undertake a full review of existing policy documentation, predominantly held in the form of google documents, and propose new arrangements of the information (whether and how policy information should be split up, combined, or reorganised).
  • Upload policy documents, whether newly created or unaltered to the new repository (Freshdesk) in an agreed format and with appropriate tags/other metadata.
  • Engage and consult regularly with Editorial Rights Advisors who will direct the migration work and give approval to proposals for reorganisation of the policy materials.
  • Assist with other administrative Editorial Rights tasks as they arise.

Skills and experience:

  • Strong attention to detail
  • Organisation skills, ability to work with tight deadlines
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to assimilate complex information
  • Experience working within Publishing, licensing, rights or compliance department is desirable but not essential
  • Ability to quickly learn.
  • Fluent in English, both orally and written
