About the Brand

The goal of the Publishing Performance and Intelligence Group (PP&I) is to help deliver next generation digital publishing at Springer Nature and, as a result, grow the number of published articles, especially in Open Access (OA).

About the Role

As Research Integrity Partner Adviser, you will be part of the growing Resolutions team in RIG. This is a brand-new role, in which you will be responsible for working with third parties that we have contracted to help investigate and resolve research integrity concerns in the published record, largely related to image integrity and data integrity concerns. You will oversee the quality of the partner to make sure that each case is handled up to the very high-quality standards we have set for them, to ensure that each research integrity case is investigated thoroughly and resolved appropriately. You will provide constructive feedback to the partner team, driving their productivity while maintaining our high standards as informed by the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

  • Lead regular operational reviews with the partner to discuss case trends, provide feedback and align on expectations, driving continuous improvement and strengthening collaboration to enhance quality and turnaround times.
  • Provide best-practice advice, structured feedback, and action plans to in-house staff, external editors, and partner teams, ensuring consistent and high-quality case handling through effective communication and shared understanding.

  • Quality-check and sign off key milestones in partner-handled cases, including editorial recommendations and draft retraction notices, ensuring alignment with governance standards and demonstrating strong accountability and case management.
  • Manage and resolve conflicts between stakeholders professionally, fostering constructive dialogue and maintaining strong working relationships through collaboration and resilience.
