Are you an editorial professional looking to expand your knowledge and skill base and advance your career? Consider joining one of the world’s largest providers of content and content-enabled solutions. The demand for knowledge and learning has never been greater, and Wiley is at the forefront of meeting that need.

We’re currently seeking a Custom Content Editor to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for managing a branded portfolio of editorial products for medical professionals.

The portfolio includes:

• Print newsmagazine issues;
• Print issues covering medical conference news;
• A website featuring daily online exclusive content, in addition to content from the print issues;

Additional projects may include:

How you will make an impact:

You will create and manage the overall tone and approach for editorial content (both print and digital [website, e-newsletters, video, and more]), working in collaboration with our society publishing partner, a physician editor, a society managing editor, and a dedicated Wiley editorial assistant.

Responsibilities include managing all editorial processes and daily editorial operations to ensure smooth workflows—from article assigning, to manuscript writing, to editing. You will also manage production and layout/design workflows for all media formats, ensuring adherence to schedules and monitoring quality control for all. You will assign the majority of the articles (print, digital), as well as edit all content. Additionally, you’ll ensure there is an adequate pipeline of publishable material.

An important part of this role is ensuring that articles are prepared in a manner that conforms to ethical publishing guidelines and standards set by our society partner. This involves ensuring that the writing is relevant for the type of publication and particular audience—physicians and medical researchers—and also ensuring material is written in a journalistic and lively fashion more akin to consumer magazines than traditional scientific journals.

Finally, you must be a hyper-organized multitasker who ensures that all media formats for the newsmagazine are consistently organized and monitored. You will monitor budgets and assisting in overall company performance and financial success, along with other responsibilities as assigned.

We are looking for people who:

We’re looking for someone with a minimum of seven years’ editing experience, along with a Bachelor’s degree in journalism or other liberal arts degree or equivalent. Our ideal candidate has an editorial background (magazine or newspaper) and has had exposure to creating content in print as well as web, email, and multimedia formats. Experience with medical/scientific content is strongly preferred, as is working with society clients.

To succeed in this role, you’ll be an experienced communicator who understands the value and sensitivities of managing external and internal clients and stakeholders. You take a thoughtful approach to problem-solving. You’re able to develop and maintain collaborative working relationships with peers, colleagues, management, and others.

People have always been valued at Wiley. We work collaboratively, enjoy what we do, and have opportunities to develop throughout our careers.
