Senior Manager, Professional Publications
Position Summary:
This role requires a highly skilled Senior Manager, Professional Publications, to help transform complex data sets and technical findings into high-impact, peer-reviewed publications. The ideal candidate is more than just a writer; it requires a professional who can find the "story" within the data. This role will work directly with senior executives and lead researchers to draft, refine, and shepherd manuscripts through the peer-review process in top-tier journals. You also may work on high-value, non-peer review articles, opinion pieces, and white papers.
A second area of responsibility will be to work closely with a cross-functional team on the speaker workstream of an anticipated renewal of our organization’s TEDx license. This will be limited to identifying speakers and prepping them to present at the next TEDx event or other events as determined by the director, PR, and Professional Publications.
Role and Responsibilities:
Narrative Development: Analyze raw data, statistical outputs, and technical briefs to construct a clear, persuasive, and logically sound academic narrative.
Manuscript Drafting: Lead the end-to-end writing process for peer-reviewed papers, including abstracts, introductions, methodology, results, and discussion sections.
Executive Liaison: Act as a strategic partner to senior-level executives and subject matter experts (SMEs), translating their vision and insights into formal technical prose that accurately represents the data being presented.
Data Interpretation: Review and interpret complex analytical findings to ensure the written content accurately reflects the technical rigor of the data and research.
Publication Management: Manage the submission process, including addressing reviewer comments and coordinating revisions with internal and external stakeholders.
Quality Assurance: Ensure all manuscripts adhere to specific journal guidelines, ethical standards, and internal brand voice.
TEDx and Other High-Level Events and Presentations: Serve as a key member of the speaker selection process, including drafting submission requests, finalizing speaker selections with the speaker committee, and working with speakers to prepare them for presentations (including video reviews).
Qualifications and Education Requirements:
8 to 15 years of high-level writing, portfolio will be required.
Exceptional Writing Skills: A proven track record of publishing in peer-reviewed journals with a portfolio that demonstrates clarity, flow, and technical precision.
Analytical Fluency: Ability to "speak the language" of data. You should be comfortable interpreting statistical significance, data visualizations, and technical methodologies.
Executive Presence: Experience interviewing and collaborating with C-suite or senior-level leaders, with the ability to provide constructive feedback on their ideas.
Technical Acumen: Deep understanding of technical or analytical areas and the ability to grasp new, complex concepts quickly.
Note: This role is designed for a professional who can balance the requirements of academic publishing with the fast-paced demands of an executive environment.
