Role Overview

The company is a ghostwriting and strategic positioning service for CEOs, founders, and institutional voices. Our client is looking for a part-time editor to review and copyedit content. This role is responsible for ensuring every piece of content meets our standard for clarity, authority, and platform-native formatting, particularly on LinkedIn.
