About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Scientific Editor to join our team at Elsevier BV Company.

Content evaluation will be based on questions such as whether the article submitted is within the aims and scope of the journal(s), whether the science makes sense, whether the results support the main conclusions, whether the authors have chosen an appropriate method, whether the manuscript is of sufficient quality, and whether this is the right journal for this work, or could the authors improve their manuscript to increase their odds of success at another journal?
