About Springer Nature:
Springer Nature opens the doors to discovery for researchers, educators, clinicians and other professionals. Every day, around the globe, our imprints, books, journals, platforms and technology solutions reach millions of people. For over 180 years our brands and imprints have been a trusted source of knowledge to these communities and today, more than ever, we see it as our responsibility to ensure that fundamental knowledge can be found, verified, understood and used by our communities - enabling them to improve outcomes, make progress, and benefit the generations that follow.

About the Role:
The Peer Review Management team sits within the Editorial Operations Department, supporting the Springer Nature Journals group by connecting the editorial and publishing needs of the journals portfolios to the people, systems and processes that will support them. The Peer Review Management team’s primary function is to provide best-in-class editorial support to authors, editors (internal and external)



and peer reviewers from the point of submission through to acceptance.

Assistant Editors play an significant role in the manuscript ‘submission to accepts’ process, overseeing tasks such as conducting suitability checks, finding, and assigning EBMs, and managing communication with editors, reviewers, and authors. They play a key role in facilitating decision-making, resolving author queries, and ensuring manuscripts progress smoothly through the publishing pipeline. Furthermore, they monitor the overall health of the journal by reviewing its performance, identifying challenges, and proposing solutions. In essence, they act as catalysts in the peer review process, ensuring high-quality manuscripts are delivered to EBMs and peer review is conducted efficiently and within set timelines.

Responsibilities
