** Publishing Consultant
**** Do you love journal publishing and technology?
**** Are you independent, fluent in Mandarin and English, and resourceful?
**** About our Team
** Elsevier is a global information analytics company that helps institutions and professionals progress science, advance healthcare and improve performance for the benefit of humanity. We serve the research, academic and clinical communities through the application of technology and analytics to content. In this way, we empower those communities to contribute to social progress, to enhance human well-being and to share and expand the breadth of human knowledge.
** About the Role
*** Academic publishing is changing quickly: AI detection policy without a settled playbook, research integrity questions that did not exist five years ago, journals expecting SaaS-level responsiveness.
* This role supports Asia-Pacific institutions launching and growing journals on Elsevier's Digital Commons platform.
* The work moves between client relationship management and hands-on technical problem-solving, often within the same day: guiding a first-time editor through submission workflows in Mandarin one week, resolving an HTML formatting issue ahead of a launch deadline the next.
* This is a fully remote, entry-level position, part of a team spread across Cairo, Amsterdam, Singapore, and the US, working largely asynchronously across time zones. Success in the role depends on strong independent judgment and follow-through.
** Responsibilities
* ** Onboard new university and institutional clients, building out Digital Commons repositories around how each client actually works.
* Serve as a trusted point of contact for editors and librarians when issues arise or publishing strategy questions come up.
* Train non-technical academic staff on unfamiliar tools and systems, with patience and clarity.
* Partner with a Strategic Advisor on more complex questions: journal indexing, editorial policy, and competitive positioning.
* Build working proficiency in HTML/CSS troubleshooting to support day-to-day client needs.
** Requirements
* ** Fluent in Mandarin and English, written and spoken, able to move between informal client conversations and formal communication with university leadership.
* Prior experience in publishing, editorial will be advantageous
* Comfortable working independently in a remote, cross-time-zone environment, with strong self-management and communication about workload.
* A technical aptitude and willingness to learn: prior HTML experience is not required, but genuine interest in how systems work is.
* Strong written English for professional correspondence, with good judgment about when to escalate an issue versus resolve it directly.
* Bachelor's degree preferred.
** Preferred Qualifications
*** Curiosity about AI tools and their application to editorial workflows. Several of our consultants already use AI tools to support quality checks, and we are looking for more of that mindset.
* Prior remote work experience.
* Proficiency in a third language.
** Work in a way that works for you
** We promote a healthy work/life balance across the organisation. We offer an appealing working prospect for our people. With numerous Wellbeing initiatives, Paid Parental leaves, Volunteering leaves, we will help you meet your immediate responsibilities and your long-term goals.
** Working for you
** We know that your wellbeing and happiness are key to a long and successful career. These are some of the benefits we are delighted to offer:
* Flexible working arrangements
