Dear IS scholars,
Scandinavian Journal of Information Systems (SJIS) is looking for a new editor from Finland.
The editorial board of the SJIS has four members, one from each country in the IRIS Association (https://communities.aisnet.org/scandinavia/home). Each year one member ends their four-year service on the board and is replaced by another person from the same country.
This year Henri Pirkkalainen from Tampere University ends his service on the board and a new member from Finland must be appointed.
We are looking for researchers working in Finnish academic institutions within information systems, informatics, digitalization, and related fields. Ideally, we are looking for a researcher with some editorial experience, and long-term ties to Finnish academia. The selected candidate will serve at the editorial board for four years. The editors are also expected to represent the journal at the annual IRIS/SCIS conference.
To nominate yourself, please send your application addressed to the IRIS board by email to Najmul Islam (najmul.islam at lut.fi) – Finnish representative on the IRIS board. Applications should include a cover letter with an editorial statement and CV. Deadline for nominations: 14th of November 2024.
The nomination and selection procedure will be as follows:
• Applications are sent to the IRIS board by the 14th of November 2024.
• The IRIS board makes a shortlist of candidates.
• The IRIS board consults the current editors about the candidates.
• The board selects and appoints the new editor.
• The new editor will assume their position on the 1st of January 2025.
Members of the SJIS editorial board are appointed by the IRIS board according to article IV, section 1 of the IRIS bylaws. The current president of the IRIS board (Miria Grisot) will chair the selection committee.

Regards!

Najmul Islam
