Responsibilities and Duties

• Maintain -- and preferably improve upon -- our exacting prose standards. If there’s a way to say something more clearly or persuasively, you’ll find it, even if that means writing and rewriting. 
• Partner with our content management team to ensure that our content library always stays current. 
• Support senior team members during off-site proposal interviews.

Qualifications

• An exceptional track record as an editor with at least five years of experience editing (or writing) in a professional setting.

• Enjoy collaborating with talented writers and are passionate about making your colleagues stronger written communicators. 
• Thrive in a fast-paced work environment and manage deadlines cooly and effectively
• A record of academic achievement, preferably in the humanities, social sciences, or another field that required regular long-form writing (undergraduate degree required, advanced degree preferred).
• Prior experience at a startup, consulting firm, or in a leadership role is a plus.
