Freelance Editor

Are you looking for consistent, flexible work that fits your schedule? Are you a strong editor with eagle-eyed attention to detail? 🦅

Join our exceptional team of editors today!

Minutes Solutions is a fast-growing professional minute-taking company that serves a global clientele. We strive to provide the highest-quality, prompt, and service-friendly minute-taking solutions and to be the preferred choice for any entity that requires professional minute-taking.

The People

Our editors come from a variety of different backgrounds, from journalism to film to transcription to ghostwriting and beyond, we work with top notch editors from all walks of life and at every stage of their career. Your primary responsibilities will involve editing minutes taken by our Minute Takers for a wide variety of customers and industries, and communicating feedback as necessary.

If you’re a good fit for this role, you’ll be someone who’s conscientious, organized, and attentive to detail. You’ll be just as comfortable working with non-professional writers and delivering feedback as you are working independently. This is a 100% remote position.

You must have previous experience as a professional editor to be considered for this position. Previous experience with minutes, condo boards/associations, or journalism will be an asset for this role, but is not mandatory. Previous experience editing AI text is also a strong asset. You should be comfortable using your own laptop or computer, and be able to upload .docx files (using Microsoft Word).

The Process

1. You find this job ad
2. Complete a mock “spot the errors” editing assessment based on our standards and style guides
3. Interview with our editorial & people managers to get to know you and learn more about our great team
4. Start training directly with our editorial manager at a rate of $19-20/hour

The Perks

At Minutes Solutions, flexibility and consistency come first. We always work with your availability and schedule in mind. On average, our editors can take on 10-20 hours of work per week, and progressively ramp up this number over time and after training as you become more comfortable with our standards and style.

We offer competitive compensation. The starting rate during training is $19-20/hour. Training may last between 6-12 weeks, after which you will be eligible for a raise up to $25/hour, based on the quality of your edits and your experience. All payments will be made in $CAD via direct deposit. Completing training does not necessarily mean that your rate will increase to $25/hour; this will be subject to your experience and progress in training.

We also offer the potential for growth across various projects that may suit your interests based on the quality of your work and tenure.
