Job ID: 40302428

Budget: £250 – £750 GBP

Call for Specialized Academic Collaboration
I am seeking an academic researcher specializing in Business Administration, Economics, or Finance to collaborate on the development of a conceptual and critical research manuscript intended for publication in a Web of Science (SSCI) indexed journal.



Required Qualifications

Applicants must meet the following criteria:
1. A documented publication record in journals indexed in Web of Science (SSCI).
2. Demonstrated experience in:
• Restructuring conceptual and critical manuscripts.
• Conducting and rewriting literature reviews.
• Academic writing in high-level English suitable for SSCI-indexed journals.
3. Proven ability to manage the peer-review process, including:
• Interpreting reviewers’ reports.
• Preparing rigorous and persuasive responses to reviewers.
• Strengthening the manuscript’s theoretical contribution.
4. The ability to propose a target journal before starting the work, supported by a clear academic justification based on:
• Explicit alignment between the journal’s scope and the manuscript topic.
• Evaluation of the journal’s recent editorial direction and published debates.
• Incorporation of recent citations from the target journal itself.
• Citation of studies published in other journals that have cited the target journal, thereby strengthening the manuscript’s intellectual positioning and academic coherence.



Manuscript Title (Conceptual Critical Study)

Musharakah Sukuk and Venture Capital: A Comparative Analytical Study of Risk and Efficiency

The study adopts a conceptual comparative approach between two contractual models:
• Musharakah Sukuk as an Islamic financial instrument.
• Venture Capital within the capitalist financial framework.

The collaboration requires the development of a rigorous theoretical framework capable of:
• Addressing the main research question and related sub-questions.
• Conducting a comprehensive and critical literature review.
• Identifying the genuine academic contribution of the manuscript.
• Positioning the paper in alignment with the standards and scope of the journal International Journal of Emerging Markets indexed in Web of Science.



Financial Structure

Academic publishing does not end with the delivery of a manuscript; it extends through the peer-review and revision stages until a final editorial decision is reached. Accordingly, the payment structure will be as follows:
• 30% upon completion of:
• Manuscript restructuring
• Final academic editing
• Official submission to the selected journal.
• 70% upon formal acceptance of the manuscript for publication.

This structure reflects the following considerations:
1. The most critical stage in academic publishing lies in successfully navigating peer review, not merely drafting the manuscript.
2. Professional commitment must extend until final editorial acceptance.
3. Due to the prevalence of unverified or exaggerated claims of expertise, strict verification prior to engagement is essential.
4. No assignment will be initiated without reviewing the candidate’s ORCID profile and verified publication record to confirm subject specialization and academic experience.



Important Note

Please do not make contact unless all the above requirements are clearly met and verifiable.

This is a strictly academic engagement requiring proven scholarly expertise, methodological rigor, and sustained professional commitment throughout the publication process.
