Publishing Editor, Bio team
I have been working as a Publishing Editor at the RSC for nearly 8 months and the time has flown by.
Moving from Bournemouth to a new job and a new town was a big leap into the unknown, but the support provided by the RSC has been great. I joined the bio team as a publishing graduate where I was soon kept busy proof reading and looking after manuscripts through the peer-review system. I loved learning 'on the job' about the production process and the scope and standards of the journals I work on. Since starting I have become journal co-ordinator for
Lab on a Chip and the newly re-named
Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, I am involved with cover commisioning, issue make-up and I am also about half way through my editing training. It's been great getting so much responsiblity within the team. I finally feel like I have found my feet, just in time to be fully trained...almost. I have also met and worked with some great people, made some great friends and learnt plenty of new skills.
