What about promoting yourself to senior editor-in-chief?
Once you have at least one other full editor-in-chief who has served as EiC for perhaps a year, you may wish to take on a more supervisory role as Senior EiC. The Senior EiC focuses on recruiting new authors and papers, supervising and mentoring the members of the Board of Reviewers, finding external funding, and otherwise promoting the journal. Our system has a feature that so far has gone unused, which allows senior EiCs to limit the AEiC access to just a selected portion of the full EiC menu, such as to review new submissions.
