Write, edit, copyedit, and proofread content, including blog posts, sales collateral, product marketing collateral, marketing collateral, event materials, and web pages.
Manage projects by coordinating with stakeholders, maintaining records, ensuring deadlines are met, working with designers and other team members, and keeping the managing editor apprised of progress.
Collaborate with the managing editor and key stakeholders to determine editorial needs, create compelling content, and ensure best practices are applied across all content projects.

WHAT YOU OFFER:

Senior-level editorial expertise: You should be able to work independently, exercise excellent judgment, and manage projects from start to finish with minimal guidance.
Familiarity with AP Stylebook, as well as the use and maintenance of an in-house style guide.
Proficiency with content management systems (we use WordPress) and general office software (we use Microsoft Office), as well as intermediate-to-expert ability with Microsoft Word and deep comfort with remote work tools (we use Slack, Teams, and Zoom) and project management tools (we use Asana).
Availability to attend meetings and answer queries during normal business hours in Pacific Time, preferably 5 days a week.
A distraction-free workspace in your home (or equivalent) where you’re comfortable taking frequent video calls and conducting interviews.

WHAT WE’D LOVE:

Experience creating and optimizing content for search (SEO).
Familiarity with vocabulary and concepts within the professional services (legal, accounting, and consulting) industry and/or private equity markets.

WHAT WE OFFER:

$65 to $75 per hour
30 to 40 hours per week
6-month initial contract (1099) with option to extend
Monthly timesheet submission + invoicing, net-15 direct payment

WHAT COMES NEXT:

You'll submit a resume and cover letter.
We’ll review applications through Wednesday, June 17, 2020.
We’ll reach out to applicants whose skills match our needs on a rolling basis.
We’ll ask second-round applicants to schedule a 30-minute video interview at a mutually agreeable time.
We’ll ask third-round applicants to complete an edit test that we estimate will take no more than three hours: a quick proof, a substantive edit, and a writing sample based on a prompt.
We’ll ask our final candidate to meet (virtually) with our senior leader, and sign a statement of work.
