Contractor | Website Content Editor

at  POD Marketing Inc

WHO IS POD MARKETING?

POD Marketing is a full-service digital marketing agency that offers clients a wide range of marketing solutions. Unlike other agencies, we specialize in specific industries, which makes us true experts in both digital marketing and the industries we serve.
We are looking for highly skilled and motivated Contracted Workers to join our team. As a Contracted Worker, you will play a crucial role in our organization, providing your expertise and contributing to our projects. Unlike our internal employees, Contracted Workers will have full flexibility in their work hours, as long as they meet the deadlines for their assigned tasks. They will also have the freedom to work from anywhere in the world, making this an ideal opportunity for those who value remote work.

JOB SUMMARY

Our contracted website editor is a professional word nerd; someone who understands that language is a living, breathing thing. They understand all of the technicalities of writing website copy, but they also get that good digital content means bending the rules. (Just a lil’ bit.)
As a website editor, you review our content and use your keen eye to spot typos, tonal inconsistencies, and factual errors. You understand website best practices, accessibility, and design—or you desire to learn!
You’ll give feedback directly to writers, and act as the Senior Editor’s eyes—making note of areas where writers might benefit from coaching. You’re detail-oriented, take feedback well, and are comfortable explaining complex concepts to easily distracted people. When giving feedback, you’re kind, but clear. And, of course, love and devotion for the Oxford comma is an absolute must!

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE & SKILLS

Must-Have:

• An English degree, directly relevant diploma, or equivalent editing experience
• Mastery of North American English
• Attention to detail
• Experience as a website content editor
• Firm grasp of headline hierarchy
• Strong communication skills

Nice to Have:

• Familiarity with the concepts of user intent and user experience
• Experience teaching or coaching writers
• Experience with digital content
