Independent Researcher and Publishing Specialist

Are you a publishing professional who thrives at the intersection of research excellence and academic strategy? We’re looking for an Independent Researcher and Publishing Specialist with a proven record of success in Cabell’s Journalistic-listed or ABDC-listed journals.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of the end-to-end publishing process — from identifying the right journals to managing submissions, navigating reviewer feedback, and steering manuscripts to successful publication. You’ll bring first-hand experience publishing in reputable peer-reviewed outlets and will use that expertise to mentor and empower researchers to achieve the same.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has a strong portfolio of accepted and published articles in recognized journals (not just submissions).

• Understands the nuances of journal selection, editorial communication, and revision strategy.

• Can work independently yet collaborate effectively with diverse research teams.

• Maintains absolute confidentiality and professional discretion.

Publications in outlets flagged by Cabell’s Predatory Reports will not be recognized.

If you’re motivated by helping ideas become impactful, published research — and want to do that in an environment that values autonomy, trust, and academic rigor — we’d love to hear from you. (Deadline to apply: 30th October 2025)
