Remote Junior Proofreader

✨ Help Us Make Every Word Count

Ever found yourself reading an article and pausing at a misplaced comma, or catching a typo that slipped through the cracks? That ability to notice what others miss is your secret strength. Imagine using it to make writing clearer and messages stronger for people around the world—all while working from your favorite spot at home. Here, your sharp eye helps us connect with audiences and build trust with every word.

Details matter here. Whether it’s an email, a report, or an online post, each one should read smoothly, so our ideas stand out, not the errors. If you’re the friend who’s asked to review a cover letter or the one who fixes group project typos at midnight, you’ll feel right at home with us.


🎯 What a Typical Day Might Look Like

Every day feels a bit different. Some mornings, you’ll jump into fresh drafts, giving them a polish with grammar and punctuation checks. Other times, you’re the last set of eyes before something goes live, spotting the subtle mistakes spellcheck misses. Your work isn’t just important—it’s essential to our team’s success.

  • 🖊️ Bring clarity to rough drafts with focused grammar and punctuation checks.
  • 🔍 Pick up on subtle manuscript errors—double words, confusing phrases, things most people gloss over.
  • 📚 Apply your AP style proofreading skills to digital content, keeping our standards high.
  • ✏️ Use light copy editing to help every article, report, or message sound clean and friendly.
  • 🕵️ Read every sentence with care, making sure spelling and syntax make sense.
  • 🌐 Lend remote editing support—offer quick feedback over Slack or video, or answer a writer’s question in chat.
  • 📄 Proofread a broad mix of digital content—think emails, reports, blog posts, and more.
  • 🔎 Jump into entry-level editorial tasks: organizing edits, logging feedback, checking citations.
  • ✅ Take the lead on content accuracy review, so nothing gets published unless it’s truly ready.
  • 📝 Split your time between online document proofreading and innovative digital tools—whatever keeps your process sharp.

You’ll make your mark by helping writers and editors feel confident about what they share.


🚀 The Difference You’ll Make

Most readers will never know your name, but your attention to detail shapes everything they see. That’s the magic of good proofreading—when it’s done right, it disappears.

  • Each grammar and punctuation check keeps our message crisp and professional.
  • Using AP style proofreading means our work meets industry standards.
  • When you’re spotting manuscript errors, writers know someone has their back.
  • Offering remote editing support helps teams collaborate, no matter the distance.
  • Your spelling and syntax review stops awkward or confusing lines before they get published.
  • A light copy edit turns dry drafts into content people actually want to read.
  • With every content accuracy review, you help us avoid costly mistakes and keep our reputation strong.

You make us better, project by project.

🌍 What Remote Work Feels Like Here

Remote means freedom, but also connection. You’ll start your day catching up on team messages, reviewing feedback, and setting your own goals. Some blocks of time are for focused, uninterrupted proofreading. Other moments are for jumping on a quick call to talk through edits or answer a writer’s question. You’ll leave notes, share what you catch, and stay in sync with your teammates.

We move quickly, but never at the expense of quality. You’ll always have space to do your best work, and people ready to help if you need it.
