**Purpose**: We are a world leader in the development of electronic publishing for the scientific community - working in the interests of science and scientists, we aim to maximise the impact of the research we publish;

**Health and Wellbeing**: 33+ days holiday (including bank holidays), a 35-hour working week, life assurance, cycle-to-work scheme, dental insurance, health care cash plan, and a great positive working environment in our brand new office in central Bristol - modern airy and designed with all of our colleagues in mind - for work and social time;
**Flexibility**: a flexible hybrid working environment to suit everyone’s needs. We don’t need you in the office every day so we can consider applicants from further afield who can easily travel to Bristol likely twice a month depending on when face-to-face time is needed;
And last but not least, did we mention that we are unique: IOP Publishing is central to the Institute of Physics, a not-for-profit society and we gift-aid all our profits to support science through the activities of the Institute.
