Description:

Role Overview. The Freelance Proofreader and Fact Checker is an essential part of the creative team at Westfall Gold, a fundraising consultancy for non-profit organizations. The perfect candidate for this role has a deep understanding of the English language, and reveres proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation.

  • We will ask you to proofread documents/design materials and check facts for projects above 1,500 words in 2-3 days (deadlines will vary depending on scope of project).
    • Fact checking: some projects will require that you have access to a phone (calling a phone number to check that the number we're printing is correct, for example).
    • Media: Some projects will be sent to you as materials you view on your phone (apps, for example). An ability to read a QR code and provide feedback on the content on your phone is necessary.
  • The amount of work we send out will vary. A light week might feature two projects. A busy week might feature ten projects or more.
Requirements:

Qualifications.

We ask that you capture your changes using your own Gmail address, or your own licensed version of Microsoft Word and Adobe Acrobat (full version; not just the Reader).
  • We will look to you to invoice us on a monthly basis for all projects worked.
