Job Vacancy: Publishing Coordinator (CLOSED)
We are looking for a dynamic Publishing Coordinator to join our busy Communications team!
Application deadline 17:00 BST, Friday 21 May.
In a nutshell
- Job Title Publishing Coordinator
- Salary £18,000 – £22,000
- Location Harbour House, Colchester
- Start date As soon as available
- Accountable to Communications Manager
- Working with Communications Department, all staff
About the role
You will join the Communications Team at a time of transformational change for both ECPR and scholarly communications in general. With oversight of membership-related services, publishing and content delivery, and marketing and social media, the work of the Communications Team is rich and diverse and fundamental to the success of the organisation.
You will ensure the effective running of our world-class publishing programme, look after our portfolio of prestigious prizes and contribute to the overall work of the Communications team.
Although the role has traditionally been office-based, throughout the current pandemic the ECPR team has been predominantly home-based. ECPR has worked hard to ensure systems are in place to appropriately support the physical and mental wellbeing of staff during remote working.
About you
You will be a highly organised self-starter with excellent organisational skills and meticulous attention to detail. You will have exceptional written and verbal communication skills and be experienced in working with a diverse range of internal and external stakeholders. The ability to thrive in a fast-paced, creative environment, managing numerous projects and deadlines is essential – as is the ability to work equally effectively autonomously, collaboratively and under supervision.
This is a key role within the department, requiring solid administrative skills but with scope for creativity and project-based work.
Since the role is primarily supporting the publishing programme, some experience or knowledge of scholarly publishing would be advantageous but not essential; candidates that can demonstrate enthusiasm and commitment to developing within the role will be evaluated strongly.
How to apply
To apply, send your CV and application statement addressing your suitability for the role to recruitment@ecpr.eu by 17:00 BST, Friday 21 May.
We kindly request no contact from agencies. Direct applicants only.
If you have any queries about the roles, please contact ECPR Communications Manager, Rebecca Gethen.
