The Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS) has launched a search for a new editor-in-chief (EIC) for its flagship publication, the Journal of Vascular Surgery (JVS). The selected EIC will oversee the academic and editorial quality of JVS and collaborate closely with key editorial staff, including the senior managing editor, publisher, executive editor and fellow editors-in-chief.

Candidates interested in the position must submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, a vision statement for JVS and confirmation of institutional support. More information is available at vascular.org/EICRFA.

JVS—a hybrid subscription and open-access monthly title—receives nearly 2,000 submissions annually.

The new EIC is expected to begin his or her term in July 2025, with an initial four-year appointment and the potential for a two-year renewal. Responsibilities will average 12–20 hours per week, including managing the editorial workflow and participating in regular meetings.

Additionally, the EIC will have support from the editorial leadership, including current EIC Thomas Forbes, MD, and the JVS family of peer-review titles Executive Editor Ronald Dalman, MD.

To fulfill the position, attendance at the Vascular Annual Meeting (VAM) and an EIC retreat at SVS headquarters each fall is required. The SVS Executive Board will decide the successful candidate.
