Role overview
Bring your editorial judgement to a project improving how AI handles book manuscripts. You will assess writing, explain what works and help shape stronger editorial guidance.
What you’ll be doing
• Review manuscripts for structure, voice, clarity and consistency.
• Suggest line edits, copyedits and changes to content where needed.
• Write constructive editorial notes and help develop quality guidelines.
Who this could suit
Experienced book editors, particularly those who have worked on published titles for established authors or publishers. Work on recognised or award-winning books is a plus.
What you’ll need
Strong command of English and literary style, substantial manuscript-editing experience, and the ability to explain nuanced decisions clearly to remote collaborators.
You don’t have to match every requirement exactly. We welcome applicants with different backgrounds, levels of experience and transferable skills.
Pay and working arrangements
Remote contractor work paying $80–$120 per hour. US-based editors are preferred; the listing also considers highly qualified applicants elsewhere.
What happens next
Apply through Find Jobs in AI with your profile and CV. We’ll review your application and, if you’re a good fit, we’ll be in touch about the next steps.
