What is copy editing?

Copy editing is the process of reviewing and correcting written material to improve accuracy, readability, and consistency. Copy editors check for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and style errors, ensuring that the text adheres to a specific style guide. They may also fact-check information and suggest changes to clarify or enhance the content. The goal is to produce clear, error-free writing that effectively communicates its intended message.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Copy Editor, and why are they important?

To succeed as a Copy Editor, you need excellent language proficiency, attention to detail, and a solid understanding of grammar, style, and punctuation, often supported by a degree in English, journalism, or communications. Familiarity with editing tools like Microsoft Word, Google Docs, and content management systems, as well as style guides such as AP or Chicago Manual of Style, is typically required. Strong organizational skills, time management, and the ability to provide constructive feedback help Copy Editors stand out. These skills are crucial to ensure written content is clear, accurate, and consistent, which upholds the quality and credibility of publications.

What is the difference between Copy Editing vs Proofreading?

Copy editing involves refining content for clarity, style, and correctness before publication, while proofreading is the final review to catch remaining errors. Both roles are essential in the publishing process but focus on different stages of editing.

What are some common challenges copy editors face when balancing quality and deadlines?

Copy editors often work under tight deadlines while maintaining high standards for accuracy and clarity. Juggling multiple projects at once can make it challenging to thoroughly check for errors, inconsistencies, or unclear phrasing. Effective time management and attention to detail are crucial, and many copy editors develop strategies such as prioritizing tasks and using style guides to streamline their workflow. Despite the pressure, collaborating with writers and other editors helps ensure the final product meets both quality and timeline expectations.

Job description


ABOUT THE ROLE
The program runs many campaigns at once across a broad asset mix — static ads, display/HTML5 banners, email, animated GIFs, and short- and long-form video — for a technical audience of engineers, IT decision-makers, and enterprise buyers. Direction often comes from the client; we execute at a premium, brand-safe bar and build repeatable systems around it.
You'll set the visual standard, lead and mentor the design and motion team, and shape the templates and workflows that keep quality high at speed. You'll report to the Director of Digital Production, guide the Senior Designer, Senior Motion Designer, and the broader pod, and partner with the editing and account/strategy leads. Editing runs as a parallel lane, so cross-team coordination matters.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Uphold the visual standard. Set and maintain the creative bar across static, display, and motion so every asset feels elevated and on-brand for a premium B2B audience.
  • Lead and develop the team. Manage and mentor the design and motion team (including the Senior Designer and Senior Motion Designer) with clear art direction, feedback, and growth support.
  • Shape systems and workflows. Establish design systems, templates, naming conventions, and review/QA so a high-volume, multi-campaign operation scales without losing quality.
  • Direct creative across campaigns. Provide visual direction and storyboards, translating client brand guidelines into consistent, platform-appropriate output.
  • Partner cross-functionally. Work with the Senior Video Editor, strategy, copy, and account/PM leads to turn briefs into clear direction and protect quality at volume.
  • Champion smart tooling. Use AI-assisted and templated workflows with sound judgment on when AI fits (concepting, backgrounds, stylized visuals) versus when brand-locked precision — logos, packaging, UI, kinetic text — needs traditional craft.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
  • 6+ years in design/art direction across digital advertising, including leading or mentoring a creative team.
  • A strong portfolio across static, design systems, display, and motion/storyboard work.
  • Experience building or scaling creative systems, templates, and processes at volume.
  • Deep Figma and Adobe Creative Suite skills; comfort directing motion (After Effects).
  • Able to translate brand guidelines into elevated work that feels tailored, not templated.
  • A self-starter energized by building structure where there isn't much yet.
  • Strong communication and collaboration across a distributed, cross-functional team.
NICE TO HAVE
  • Enterprise or B2B technology brands and technical/brand-safe creative.
  • Display/HTML5 banner programs at scale.
  • Performance creative or agency environment.
  • UI or app-based brands.
