We are publishing, on average, 4 new books per month.

Amongst our team of myself, one full-time assistant (Kate) & multiple freelancers, we already have fantastic niche researchers, cover designers & some great writers, but the one position we are really missing - is a good editor and proofreader - who can polish and fix mistakes in our books before they are published. Therefore, we are now searching for an editor with FLUENT, PERFECT English to take on this role.

- Experience with Microsoft Word / Google Docs
- Experience or willingness to learn Canva for designing
- Strong internet
- No Plagiarised Writing or AI-generated content will be allowed (we always check these)
- Daily communication of work completed by email

Even better if you:
- Enjoy proofreading books & know how to use Grammarly or ProWritingAid
- Have experience with Amazon FBA or working with similar business models (transferable skills)

Benefits:
- A stable, full-time (or part-time) & long-term remote job
- Potential for payrises depending on performance
- Holiday/Time-Off Given (4 weeks per year + Filipino Holidays)
- 13th month included
- No Stress or Timeproof (as long as you get the work done on time)
