Vacancy: Editor-in-Chief

Applications are invited for the role of Editor-in-Chief for Endocrine-Related Cancer

The Society for Endocrinology invites applications for the role of Editor-in-Chief for a five-year term starting in January 2026, with a transition period starting October 2025. Endocrine-Related Cancer is the flagship oncology journal at Bioscientifica, endorsed by the North American Neuroendocrine Tumor Society, the Japanese Hormone and Cancer Society, and the Endocrine Society of Australia, and is committed to publishing high-impact papers in the field of endocrine oncology.

Endocrine-Related Cancer is a peer-reviewed journal, publishing basic laboratory, translational and clinical investigations of human health and disease, focusing on endocrine neoplasias and hormone-dependent cancers and review articles in these areas.

The journal is governed by the Editorial Board, led by the Editor-in-Chief Professor Matthew Ringel and the Deputy Editor Professor Márta Korbonits. We are looking to appoint a new Editor-in-Chief to manage Endocrine-Related Cancer following the retirement of Professor Ringel in December 2025.

As a profit-for-purpose company, the entirety of any profit generated by Bioscientifica is reinvested in the endocrine community through the Society for Endocrinology.

contributing to the marketing strategy, produced and overseen by the Marketer, and representing the journals internationally
chairing the annual Editorial Board meeting as well as participating in regular meetings with the Publisher to discuss ongoing tasks and projects.

Extensive editorial and administrative support is provided by the Publisher and an honorarium is paid annually.

Applications

Applicants should submit the following materials:

CV including publication history and relevant editorial experience
A critique of the present status of Endocrine-Related Cancer, identifying opportunities for development (maximum 500 words).
