NONFICTION EDITOR & WORKBOOK FORMATTING SPECIALIST

WE’RE HIRING: NONFICTION EDITOR & WORKBOOK FORMATTING SPECIALIST

Aren Assist is seeking an experienced Kenyan professional for remote, freelance, project-based collaboration on an educational publishing project.

You will help refine existing manuscript drafts and, where commissioned, organise and format supporting workbook materials.

What we’re looking for:

• Proven experience editing nonfiction, business or educational publications.

• Strong editorial judgment and the ability to preserve an author’s voice.

• Confidence using tracked changes or suggested edits.

• Clear communication, reliable delivery and constructive recommendations.

• Workbook or book-interior layout skills, where offered.

Please provide evidence of at least two relevant completed projects and explain your contribution. Strong nonfiction editors who do not offer workbook formatting are also welcome to apply.

The proposed initial assignment is a small paid manuscript trial. A workbook sample may be included by separate agreement. Fees, deliverables and timelines will be confirmed before work begins. Further assignments will depend on project needs, performance and client approval.

HOW TO APPLY

Email your CV or professional profile, two relevant samples, location, availability and fixed-price quotation to:

arenassist@gmail.com

Include a workbook sample if you offer layout services. The sample quotation scope is in the first comment.
