I'm offering
An IT professional with 30 years experience, most recently in the role of Business Analyst. In this role, I am entrusted with writing and reviewing detailed business and technical documents to ensure the success of multi-million pound projects. This means that I have developed many of the skills required of a copy-editor/proofreader and I am looking to transition from IT into a career in publishing utilising these skills.
I have a reputation for thoroughness and accuracy, with an eye for detail, and have the rigour and application to review and find errors in long and complex manuscripts, specialising in the business and computer field of publishing.
Currently working as a freelance contractor on a part-time basis, with the ability to work from home, I have the flexibility to now accept copy-editing and proofreading opportunities.

I proof-read the new website for Tring Together (www.tringtogether.org.uk), with the brief to identify errors and omissions, to provide suggestions to improve readability, to test the inherent functionality of the website (for example, to check that links were working) and to spot mistakes in formatting on the page.

Proofreader

I proof-read ‘The Illustrated Family Bible’, a 392-page illustrated Bible for families with the brief to ensure consistency in text style, to check proper names and places, to avoid repetition of text, to cross-reference the contents with the page headings and check consistency and continuity of the colour illustrations.
