Excellent communication skills and the ability to work closely with people across the organization throughout the planning and development of content
Highly organized and excellent attention to detail including mastery of spelling/grammar, punctuation, sentence structure
A commitment to double-checking and triple-checking all work before being sent to the client, and working with others in the company to be the “second set of eyes” to help with these checks
