Editing Press Postdoctoral Studentships

Editing Press Postdoctoral Studentships offer a unique opportunity for early-career researchers to combine academic research with professional editing experience. These studentships are designed to support postdoctoral scholars who wish to develop their editorial skills while advancing their research agendas. Funded by Editing Press, a leading academic publisher, the program provides financial support, mentorship, and access to publishing resources. Recipients will work on editing manuscripts, managing peer review processes, and contributing to editorial strategy, all while pursuing their own research projects. The studentship typically lasts one to two years and includes a competitive stipend, research budget, and opportunities for professional development. Ideal candidates are recent PhD graduates with a strong publication record and a keen interest in scholarly communication. The program aims to bridge the gap between research and publishing, fostering a new generation of editors who understand the academic landscape. Applications are evaluated based on research excellence, editorial potential, and the alignment of the candidate’s expertise with Editing Press’s portfolio. Successful applicants will join a vibrant community of scholars and editors, gaining invaluable experience that can lead to careers in academia, publishing, or research management. The deadline for the 2026 cohort is expected in early 2026.
