Job description

We value our students! If you see an open position that is right for you, we encourage you to apply!
This position is contingent upon enrollment in the MFA in Creative Writing program.
The Managing Editor will be responsible for the day-to-day operations for Chatham's national literary journal, The Fourth River. Duties include but are not limited to corresponding with submitters and contributors to the journal; managing email and social media; overseeing submission management system and website; creating reading schedules for staff; copyediting and creation of digital proofs; acquiring printer bids and arranging for layout and design. The Managing Editor is required to attend the weekly practicum course in the fall, as well as weekly meetings in fall and spring with the Editor-in-Chief. This position requires someone with a high level of organization and the ability to be self-sufficient. The ideal candidate will have some previous experience working in an editorial capacity for a student-run or independent literary journal. Professionalism and timeliness are expected at all times. Consistently missing deadlines may result in the Managing Editor being asked to relinquish their position. Assuming satisfactory conduct and progress, this position is renewable for a second year. This position is open only to incoming MFA students.
All current student employees should notify their other manager(s) if you work multiple jobs on campus at the same time. Additionally, students may not work more than 20 hours per week (combined between all campus jobs) during the academic year. Students may not exceed 980 work hours per calendar year.
Student jobs do not automatically roll over to the next academic year or summer.
Chatham University strives to promote a campus environment that understands and embraces multiculturalism while increasing individuals' intercultural competence. We actively work to build and sustain a diverse and culturally vibrant campus, which promotes employee and student success and retention.
