Are You a Detail-Oriented Editor Who Obsesses Over Information Accuracy?

Are you looking for part-time freelance work that you can do from anywhere? This might be the role for you!

But This Isn’t Your Typical Freelance Job...

Cloudwards.net is a leading online publication providing information, news, articles and interviews for cloud-based software. We reach over 500,000 visitors monthly and continue to grow month after month.

We're looking to strengthen our editorial team with a part-time junior editorial assistant who is ready to dive into the nitty-gritty details of cloud-based technology (with a focus on backup, storage, project management and VPNs). If that sounds like a good fit for you, keep reading to see what we offer and what we expect.

About the Role

Cloudwards.net is looking to hire a part-time junior editorial assistant. This will be a freelance contractor role with around 15-20 hours of commitment each week. With consistent performance, there may be opportunities to expand these hours in the future. Cloudwards often promotes from within its team, so there is a chance for career growth from this position.

The scope of work for this role will lean heavily on fact-checking our video scripts and articles. However, we also expect to have other editorial tasks for you, such as updating published articles, internal linking and some ad hoc organizational tasks.

Most of the video scripts and articles will require prompt fact-checking to make sure our content can be published on time, so timeliness and efficiency will be crucial for this role.

Responsibilities

Timely fact-checking of articles and video scripts.
Factual updates of articles via WordPress.
Internal article linking tasks.
Other editorial or organizational tasks, as needed.

Required Skills:

Fluent or native English speaker and writer, including grammar.
Experience using WordPress (backend).
Confidence implementing updates to live articles.
Great attention to detail.
Ability to work independently but be able to communicate with the editorial team.
Ability to communicate clearly in a professional, friendly manner.
Ability to work with our project management tool (ClickUp), communication tool (Zulip), and Google Docs.
Ability to work in a timely manner so that editorial articles and video scripts can be published on schedule.
Ideally should have an interest in cloud-based technology, like VPNs, cloud storage and project management.
