Migration Workflow Intern

This internship project will support and contribute directly to the delivery of the migration of journals from a legacy submission system to Emerald's current submission partner, ScholarOne.

Migrating these titles is essential to achieving fully aligned processes, efficient staff training, consistent reporting, and integration with Emerald’s end‑to‑end publishing systems.

This internship will play a key operational role in supporting the migration, including workflow mapping, editor engagement, system preparation, and coordination of the transfer of active manuscripts. This project allows for hands-on experience in publishing operations, systems migration, stakeholder management, and cross-functional project delivery.

This internship will be for a duration of 3 months.

Location: We perform at our best when we feel trusted and are able to choose an approach to working that suits us best, which is why we are a remote-first company. However, we also believe in face to face collaboration, and our UK colleagues meet once a month for team time and quarterly for company get togethers in our Leeds office, so we ask that you be within a commutable distance that you are comfortable with in order to attend the office on those occasions.

Please note that although we are a remote-first company, the role will need to be carried out from the UK. As such, we are unable to accommodate remote arrangements from other countries. 

About our Recruitment Process: We welcome applications from all individuals, irrespective of age, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, race, nationality, ethnic or national origin, religion, or belief. As we understand the value of the transferability of skills and experiences, we are not looking for the 'perfect candidate', we encourage everyone who is truly excited about our mission to apply.

We receive a high volume of interest in our roles and may close applications early if we reach capacity. We strongly recommend applying as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
If you require additional time to complete your application due to accessibility needs or other circumstances, please don’t hesitate to contact us, we’re happy to support you.
