EDITOR

PRINT QUARTERLY

After 26 years as Editor, David Landau, the founder of Print Quarterly, wishes to step down. The Directors (that is the trustees) of the charity wish to appoint a suitably qualified person as his successor. This is will be a full-time post, based in an office in London, and supported by a full-time administrator.

The new Editor will take full responsibility for all aspects of editing, publishing, promoting and improving the Journal. He/she will chair the quarterly meetings of the Editorial Board, and maintain good relations with scholars, curators and dealers working in the field. It is envisaged that at some point in the future publication will be online rather than on paper, and the new Editor will be expected to plan and manage the transition, and take on the task of designing and posting each issue on the web. As a preliminary the new Editor will need to see to the posting of the back issues of Print Quarterly on the web in electronic form.

This post requires a person who is both a print scholar with a familiarity with a wide range of print history, and someone who has good skills as a manager and in working with other people. Above all the new Editor will need to supply the drive to take the Journal forward into a new electronic era and secure its future. In doing this, the new Editor will have the full support of the Directors and of the Editorial Board.

The salary will be by negotiation, but will be commensurate with the responsibilities of the post, which is seen as comparable with a Senior Lecturer in a British university. Full particulars are available by clicking here.
