Fran Lake

As Head of Publishing, my team oversees our two international journals, Rheumatology and Rheumatology Advances in Practice, as well as our Clinical Guidelines development programme and the BSR patient registries. 

Both the team and BSR as a whole are friendly and inclusive. 
There's plenty of opportunities for learning & development - both within the team and within the society.
We're lead by our values, and it shows.

I fell into publishing after a Master's in science where I learned I hated the lab. I've now developed a love for editorial, and have been in the industry over a decade.

Make sure you tell us why you're interested in this role and in working at BSR/a society in your cover letter. It also helps to show you've done some research into the industry - this will make you stand out from the crowd.
