We're looking for a Scientific Editor to join our Data and Community Function, helping to curate, enhance, and promote the world-renowned Cambridge Structural Database (CSD), a critical resource used by scientists across academia and industry worldwide.

This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in maintaining the quality and integrity of structural chemistry data while contributing to scientific training, outreach, and education initiatives that support the global research community.

About the Role

As a Scientific Editor, you'll be responsible for validating and curating crystal structure analyses, ensuring scientific accuracy and consistency within the CSD. You'll work with complex structural data, contribute to database enhancement projects, and help maintain the high standards that make the CSD an invaluable scientific resource.

Beyond data curation, you'll also support the development and delivery of training materials, workshops, webinars, and educational resources. You'll have the opportunity to represent the organisation at conferences, scientific meetings, and outreach events, helping researchers understand and maximise the value of structural data. For this role, approximately 20% of time will be dedicated to training, education and outreach activities.

Working closely with colleagues across the organisation, you'll contribute to innovative projects that improve data workflows, enhance training activities, and strengthen engagement with the scientific community.
