Job Description & How to Apply Below
Turn submission, readership and financial data into the numbers BRJ runs on — pipeline health, journal performance, and author-experience metrics.
About the RoleEvery manuscript that moves through BRJ leaves a data trail: submission and review timelines, invoicing, production milestones, launch readership and citations. We need those signals turned into clear, trustworthy reporting that editors and management act on weekly.
What You Will Do- Build and maintain reporting on the publishing pipeline: submission volumes, review turnaround, acceptance-to-launch times and payment cycles.
- Analyse readership and citation performance across journals, issues and subject areas.
- Design metrics with editors, then automate them — repeatable queries and dashboards over one-off spreadsheets.
- Present findings in crisp written summaries with clear recommendations.
- Guard data quality: spot gaps and inconsistencies in operational data and push fixes upstream.
- 2+ years in a data-analysis role with strong SQL (we are a PostgreSQL shop).
- Fluency in a BI/visualization tool (Metabase, Looker Studio, Power BI or similar).
- Spreadsheet mastery and comfort with statistics fundamentals (distributions, cohorts, significance).
- The writing skills to make a number persuasive to a non-technical editor.
- Python or R for deeper analysis.
- Experience with publishing, media or subscription-funnel analytics.
PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF or ODT, up to 25 MB. Your CV is stored securely and shared only with our hiring team.
