We are engaging Senior Book Editors to contribute their expertise to a dynamic customer project focused on elevating editorial standards across diverse manuscripts.

Scope of Work
- Review, analyze, and enhance book manuscripts with an emphasis on clarity, narrative structure, voice, and market alignment.
- Provide detailed editorial feedback and perform advanced line editing, copyediting, and content restructuring as needed.
- Identify inconsistencies, gaps, or opportunities for improvement in plot, character development, and thematic continuity.
- Contribute to the creation of editorial guidelines and best practices to inform AI model development.
- Draft, revise, and polish editorial commentary, ensuring feedback is constructive, actionable, and aligned with high industry standards.
- Collaborate with project stakeholders by participating in written and verbal discussions to communicate edits and recommendations effectively.
- Support ongoing quality control by reviewing and refining AI-generated editorial work for accuracy and style.
Nice to have
- Extensive experience editing published books for recognized publishing houses or prominent authors.
- Editorial leadership on books that have achieved notable recognition (e.g., New York Times bestsellers or award-winning titles) is a significant plus.
- Exceptional command of the English language, grammar, and literary style.
- Proven ability to deliver incisive, nuanced editorial feedback across genres and formats.
- Strong collaboration skills with a passion for both written and verbal communication.
- Comfort working in a remote, tech-enabled environment and adapting to evolving project needs.
- US-based contributors are preferred, though highly qualified professionals from other locations will be considered.
Eligibility
