Job Opening – COPY-EDITOR/PROOFREADER

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

I have asked for and have been granted permission by SDMB administration to post job openings for positions at my company. This ad is listed in the Marketplace as well.

We are a growing start-up, nearing our 1-year anniversary, looking for professionals to grow with us.

Our medical education and communications company is seeking a part-time, freelance copy-editor/proofreader to review content in pharmaceutical marketing and sales materials. Work activities include review and editing of physician-focused content for spelling, punctuation, and grammar; occasional research and fact checking; and ensuring consistent style and voice within a piece. Candidates must be experienced and familiar with medical terminology, knowledgeable in AMA style, comfortable working in digital formats, able to work under tight timelines, turn around projects quickly, and be available to communicate easily via phone and email. Agency or pharmaceutical experience preferred.

At least one telephone interview will be required of all candidates. Candidates who advance to consideration will be asked to complete a test.

To forward a link to your CV, please send me a PM.

Uh, I think you should make clear this is a telecommuting thing (I assume by your “be available to communicate easily via phone and email” bit), just so someone looking this over doesn’t wonder why you don’t list a company location. :slight_smile:

Yes, although we are a New Jersey-based, US company, this is a telecommuting position.

Interesting. Can you give some idea of how much the pay would be and what kind of background you are looking for?
