Description
Experience Level: Expert
I'm looking for an English language proofreader/editor, that can take a written report, and check and correct any issues relating to grammar, language, English, etc.
The report will already be written - I just need it checked for mistakes/errors and for suitable amendments to be made (i.e. I would like you to make edits to the content to convey stated points more effectively - only do this where necessary). The desired result is a report that can be immediately sent to key stakeholders involved in the research project, without me needing to read it all through in advance.
The report content will always be of a technical subject, and will focus on the oil and gas industry, heavy machinery, lubricants, factories, etc. - so, knowledge of this area would be extremely beneficial so you can understand the points being made.
Requirements:
- Excellent ability to proofread and correct any English grammar/language errors
- Ideally, should have technical knowledge/background, to understand the topic (oil and gas industry, heavy machinery, lubricants, factories, etc.)
- Competent with using shared Google Docs (I'll add you to the reports that I need reviewing), and must be comfortable formatting a document, or implementing/replicating a previously used format (i.e. consistency throughout, not random font sizes or title sizes - a perfectly formatted document)
The first two reports are approximately 5,000 words in total. I'm looking for someone to work with on a regular basis. I should have a report every 2-3 weeks that needs proofreading. I imagine for the first two reports, I will send you the reports for you to understand the context, and we can have a phone call for you to ask any questions to understand the background/context in a bit more detail. I will also send you some information relating to the background of the project, which will help when reading the reports.
I prefer to work on an hourly basis. I don't know how long this proofread will take, so please bid with your hourly rate.
Let me know if you have any questions!
