Since 2003, eWorldEditing has specialized in editing scientific and technical documents written by researchers and physicians who do not speak English as their first language. Primarily these manuscripts focus on medicine, engineering, and the natural sciences.

We are currently looking to add to our network of skilled graduate, post-graduate, and professional editors. All editing is done in Microsoft Word and can be performed at a time and place of your choosing as long as deadlines are met. The workload is flexible and involves 5-30 hours per week, depending on your schedule.

Qualifications:

• While a Master’s degree or higher in medicine, engineering, physics, or biology is preferred, applicants with some graduate/medical school and strong writing and editing skills will also be considered;
• English must be your first language (no exceptions);
• Excellent writing skills and strong attention to detail;
• Ability to work unsupervised and meet deadlines;
• A strong academic record;
• Familiarity with the writing style of peer-reviewed journals;
• Experience working with non-native speakers of English is helpful, but not required.

This position is convenient, with flexible hours, and is an excellent source of part-time income for the right person. To apply, please send your resume/CV, a scientific or technical writing sample (~500 words; excerpts from longer documents are acceptable), and a short cover letter detailing your interest in the position to: [email protected].
