Are you interested in a volunteer role that would help you build connections and networks in plant conservation? A role which would enhance your science communication skills and help build your exposure and expertise in the field?
The ANPC is looking for a new editor for Australasian Plant Conservation. This quarterly conservation bulletin acts as an information exchange between researchers, managers, and practitioners in the field. While it is edited to a high standard, it is not a ‘peer-reviewed’ journal, and thus is a comparatively simple platform for information to be shared. It is distributed to a readership of botanic gardens, NGOs, government, NRM organisations and industry peak bodies, along with as diverse and passionate individual readership.

About the role:
This ideally 2-3 year (but flexible) role largely involves planning issue themes and topics, liaising with authors, as well as outreach to source articles. No design skills are required, but some editing experience would be helpful. The editor would be assisted by several assistant editors and ANPC office support staff, who would help with sourcing and proofreading articles.
