Job Description:
Scribendi is looking for the best freelance editors. When we
find the best editors, as weve been doing for over two decades, we
provide a streamlined process that allows editors to focus on what
they do best: editing. In the Scribendi system, theres no bidding
for orders. We provide a constant stream of work, and as a
contractor you can choose what you want to work on. The value for
each order is clearly outlined before you accept it. There are no
interactions with clients; theres no need to sell yourself, to
market your services and skills, to engage in lengthy
back-and-forths with clients, or to bid your own profits away
trying to secure work. Our marketing team brings in the clients,
and our fantastic Customer Service team handles all interactions
with them. You can just pick the orders you want and start working.
Our online system will handle all the details and let you keep
things simple. Your schedule is your own, and you can work as much
or as little as you want. All you have to do is provide great work
and meet your deadlines. Youll get paid promptly and securely each
month, so youll never have to chase a client for payment again. We
have high standards, which is why we pursue the worlds best
freelance editors. We provide access to free educational resources
for optional continued learning, as personal growth is something
that we believe in as a company. You can work from anywhere, but
you will need a PC with anti-virus software and a secure internet
connection. Youll need to be familiar with word-processing software
and one or more style guides. If youre a freelance editor who wants
both autonomy and security, youll want to work with Scribendi. WHO
