The Nitty Gritty
The backstory on the organization and why they need to hire you!
This female-owned, data-driven company pairs patients with research studies, enabling life-saving drugs and procedures to come to market faster. Every year for the past four years, the company has doubled in size and is poised for even more growth in 2022. To keep pace with this rapid expansion, they’re looking for a Proofreading Manager to head up a team of three (and growing) full-time proofreaders, mentoring them, optimizing their work, and establishing processes and performance measures. You and your team will review clinical research materials presented in various formats, including print advertising, brochures, guides, letters, digital advertising, websites, presentations, and videos, noting errors in punctuation, spelling, word usage, and consistency. This is a great opportunity to build a team at a high-growth company that is actually doing good for the world.
Why You?

You must be experienced dealing with compliance and heavily regulated content. It goes without saying that you can communicate effectively with writers and other staff members to ensure that all documents meet company and project guidelines (while also incorporating all global client feedback). You’re highly proficient in basic and advanced grammar rules and understand how they are used within clinical research style guides. You must have prior proofreading/QA experience and demonstrate incredible attention to detail. It’s exciting for you to work within a fast-paced, booming environment and multitask all day long. Note: Candidates should be prepared to take a proficiency test as part of the screening process.
