Book Review Editor
Journal of Social Policy
We are seeking a new Review Editor for the JSP, starting from January 2009
(or as soon as possible thereafter). The vacancy arises because the current
Review Editor, Suzi Macpherson, is moving to a new job.
The Review Editor is responsible for choosing books to review, sending
these to suitable reviewers, and generally editing the book review section.
S/he will work closely with the JSP editors (Tania Burchardt and Hartley
Dean, LSE) and become a member of the JSP Editorial Board, which usually
meets twice a year (in January and at the SPA Annual Conference).
The job is interesting, keeps you up to date with what is being published,
and allows you to contribute to JSP development and policy.
The Review Editor receives an honorarium (currently £1280 per annum) and
their University receives a payment in respect of expenses and
administrative costs (currently £3060 per annum). These sums are likely to
increase by around 3% next year in line with inflation.
To express interest, or for further information, please contact Jane
Millar, Chair of the JSP Editorial Board ([log in to unmask]) by Friday
7th November.
