An advanced degree in the life sciences or significant experience in commissioning, assessing and developmentally editing front section or reviews for scholarly c ommunication in the life sciences.
Experience working in life science/biomedical journals or comparable outlets.
A passion for science, scientific communication and open access.
The final salary will depend on several factors, including the candidate’s relevant work experience, skills, education, and other qualifications; PLOS also offers a comprehensive benefits package that will be shared with candidates in the interview process.
PLOS is a non-profit, Open Access publisher empowering researchers to accelerate progress in science and medicine by leading a transformation in research communication. We established the first multi-disciplinary publication inclusive of all excellent research regardless of novelty or impact and demonstrated the importance of open data availability. As we continue to lead the way in making research content more open, we need to make it a system that's open for everyone. We believe in pushing the boundaries of 'Open' to create a more equitable system of scientific knowledge and understanding—it’s core to who we are, inside and out. Beyond accepting distinct perspectives, we seek and support divergent backgrounds among our staff because we know differences strengthen our teams, our work, and our communities. We’re ever-evolving in our journey for representation and equity, and strongly encourage applicants of diverse identities to apply: you’ll find a group of critical thinkers eager to challenge the status quo and learn with you as we continue breaking barriers to open science.
